greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unk's Wild Wild West : One Thread

Kritter has asked to be excused from her duties here as Admin helper. I myself noticed a post where she was asked if she would "tell", which I think was a reference to her having access to IP numbers. She does not want to get involved in any possible infighting, or even be thought of as having any favoritism, so she is FIRED!

If you screw up your HTML you will need to fix it yourself, or you will need to ask her for help in the thread you mess up. If you want stuff in a category, it is up to you. While I am at it, as far as IPs go I wouldn't give ten buckets of shit to know who y'all are or where you post from so don't worry about it. Nobody will be "outed" here.

Thank you again Kritter for your help. Now go get a life ;)

Kritter, there really is a lot more to life than fixing html. Go see a good movie this weekend!

'sumer, your eggs are getting cold! And I'll have a glass of whatever it is that you're drinking this am.

I have an idea Unk. I really want to learn the Lusenet system and I'm not getting much experience in my room. How about we join forces and let me take care of your html? I'm probably not as fast as kritter, but I'll get it in good time. If you'll let me do this, I'll close up shop over there and then people don't have to post in two places, kritter won't have to worry about people getting mad at her, and I'll get the experience I want. What do you say?

-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), December 01, 2000.

please?

I think its a great idea. Tooooo many boards, soooo lil time.

Can he unc, can he? pllllllleeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaasssssssssee?

I could give 20 bucket full of shit whether he knows my ISP or not.

Unk: ""If you screw up your HTML you will need to fix it yourself, or you will need to ask her for help in the thread you mess up.""

Actually, if someone messes up their format, they can just repost it again formatted, or leave it as is. For HTML screw ups, like unclosed tags, or weird stuff like cin did the other day..that can be fixed from the Q&A side so long as it's not REALLY invasive. Cin's I actually had to fix the other night from the admin side..heh..it was THAT strange..! Learn a little code, boss! It's not that scary.

You'll figure out the categorizing fast enough..it's really easy. Keep an eye under "Notification" "view all alerts", until Mr. G gets his fix in place for us.

Happy to be among the ranks of "peons" again..! Thanks!

-- kritter (kritter@adelphia.net), December 01, 2000.


No matter the lofty heights to which you soar, Kritter, you will always be regarded as peon by those who know you best. :)

-- Rich (howe9@shentel.net), December 01, 2000.


Hehe, Thanks Rich..I..think.

-- kritter (kritter@adelphia.net), December 01, 2000.

Thanks 'sumer but you should care (somewhat) if someone has your IP or not. If you're not running a good security program on your box someone can ping your IP to see if you're on, and then go in and root around in it. If you have any personal information in it, they'll find it. Most people have their name on their software, and a lot of people have Quicken or other financial software on it. Once they get your credit card number or your social security card you might be in a world of hurt. I have been to sites where young males are looking to buy credit card numbers from rogue servers so they can get into porn sites. Someone could use your information to co-opt your identity and that could lead to years of hassle. I don't mean to scare you or anyone else because the chances are remote, but in general it's wise not to advertise your IP address. I don't think there's anyone here we have to worry about, but I know there are lurkers who go into bulletin boards and chatrooms just to collect IP numbers.

-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), December 01, 2000.

Shhheeettt!!!!!!!!!!!! ^^^just what "I" needed to hear today.

Ok, HOW can I fix the problem? Um, short of maxing out my credit cards?

Anyone give up a link for the annonymizer site? I'd preciate it.

-- sumer (shh@aol.con), December 01, 2000.


http://www.anonymizer.com/

-- CD (costavike@hotmail.com), December 01, 2000.

Thank ya CD....gotz it on.

-- sumer (shh@aol.con), December 01, 2000.


That would be Fiornal.

-- SydBarrett (dark@side.moon), December 01, 2000.

Thanks Syd, I *really* ought to invest in a PDR, no?

Perhaps I shall place that on my christmas chemistry list?

-- sumer (shh@aol.con), December 01, 2000.


lol! Using an anonymizer now is kind of like closing the barn door after the horse gets out. (Not that anyone here gives a squat what your IP is.) Just remember to use it when you're lurking or posting at a site that you don't trust.

-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), December 01, 2000.

nevermind, shit, I'll just max out my credit cards...

annon OFF.

Everybody here knows who I am any damn how...

Tapping foot waiting till 5:00 so I can mosey on over to Chi Chi's for a drinky winky.

And it is only 2:00 now, damn!!!!!

Capn, pour me a cyber mary, will ya.?

-- sumer (shh@aol.con), December 01, 2000.


1 double cyber-mary comin' up.

Here ya go hon,enjoy!!!

kb8,

The kitchen is now open,I think,I can hear the cook bitchin' bout somethin' back there.

-- capnfun (capnfun1@excite.com), December 01, 2000.


God Lord, I had no idea someone could use your ip to get into your computer. That's downright frightening. They might access my win/loss records off of Winmine. Then I'm really screwed!

-- kritter (kritter@adelphia.net), December 01, 2000.

I don't know what Winmine is, but chances are you don't have to worry too much about it. I think most of the people who hack are looking for a "dummy" box to spam or steal their IP address for awhile. Of course, if you make any major enemies...that's another matter. I've read posts in bulletin boards from kids who spend their every waking moment trying to get even with some perceived "enemy". I think everyone here is pretty safe from the posts I read. Most people here don't care about hacking but I just wanted to let 'Sumer know the risks since she was so nonchalant about her IP.

So where's Unk? I thought he would have answered me by now. Well, I can't hang around any longer today. I'm going to dinner tonight and to Chicago this evening so tell him I'll be back on Monday.

%^^^well, I'm NOT ashamed!!!! so what I'm nonchalant about alot of things....um, you couldnt tell could ya? hee hee.

-- sumer (shh@aol.con), December 01, 2000.


Please Unk do not let netscape have the keys to help you. This is why I came here instead of there (his/her site). I trust you, Unk. I don't know this person and quite frankly he/she seems a little too eager to get into the driver's seat. Please Unk, don't do it. If anyone, I would rather it be Kritt.

-- said it before (ill@say it. again), December 01, 2000.

It's all a ruse. I'm sure 50 people have the keys to this place and Unc SELLS our IP's on Ebay. Chicken wing...chicken head...what's the difference? There's no meat on either of them. Get your toilet paper now. New Year's day is only a month away. We're all going to die.

-- Anita (Anita_S3@hotmail.com), December 01, 2000.

Fear not little ones, I am King here, and King I shall remain. Netscape, thanks for the offer, but I am going to keep my promise about who gets the keys to the kingdom.

Me only.

-- Uncle Deedah (unkeed@yahoo.com), December 01, 2000.


Thankee your royal unk-ness! Yer royal subjects shall remain loyal as well!! I feel much better now!

-- Aunt Bee (Aunt__Bee@hotmail.com), December 01, 2000.

LOL!, Anita.

-- David L (bumpkin@dnet.net), December 01, 2000.

Anita, Unc sells our IPs on EBAY? What is the top price, 50 cents?

-- Dr. Pibb (dr.pibb@zdnetonebox.com), December 02, 2000.

No problem Unk. After reading those responses I know where I'm not wanted ;-D

"192.168.1.254 Feelin' lucky, punk? "

Uncle Bob you chicken, giving out a Linksys router IP makes you feel tough? ;)
