description: Regarding the "admin access" to the old Westwood forums, I will make this clear. Aircraftkiller was mistaken. I can admit that in a way, I had higher access than most people. I'm sure none of you remember back then, but certain people who I have made peace with were attacking the hell out of my sniper server and I was working with one of the guys at Westwood (Steve Tall) to get the exploit patched. (DOM_TreyD was helping at the time too, as a fellow victim) My work with them on this issue not only earned me a Renegade mousepad and a few t-shirts (which was nice, but I was glad to have my server fixed more), but I also ended up talking to a lot with other employees at Westwood, including Delphi (who got me into the much-coveted Generals beta) and Tim Hempel who worked late and I could call up to get him to k-line these people when they were messing with my server. What I ALSO did was mass email everyone at Westwood that I had contact with when people were spamming the old Renegade Forums. I don't really know which of them was the one who would clean things up, but generally within a couple hours of me contacting them, the spammer would go away (until he changed IPs I guess). So, that's how I had access to admin. In a related matter, it may have also seemed like we were admins because we used an exploit on that piece of shit UBB to read the raw data of posts, which included their IPs. Later on, we obtained an exploit that allowed you to create posts as someone else. Blazer still has a document with the details, and I'm sure the exploit has been patched, but it involved using the [ code] tag and the doulbe pipe (||) delimiter to append another post onto yours, and you could put any user id in there and the post would look like it came from them. You could even put any source IP in there. I'm quite sure that the person who told us about it told other people about it, because I know we did it once, made a post and deleted it, to see if it worked. You could tell when a po…

description: Nightma12 wrote on Sun, 17 September 2006 12:30 Orca... just let it go, help-linux is right, this has gone on for long enough now and help-linux: DDOS stands for Distributed Deniel Of Service Quote: - On the Internet, a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is one in which a multitude of compromised systems attack a single target, thereby causing denial of service for users of the targeted system. The flood of incoming messages to the target system essentially forces it to shut down, thereby denying service to the system to legitimate users. A hacker (or, if you prefer, cracker) begins a DDoS attack by exploiting a vulnerability in one computer system and making it the DDoS "master." It is from the master system that the intruder identifies and communicates with other systems that can be compromised. The intruder loads cracking tools available on the Internet on multiple -- sometimes thousands of -- compromised systems. With a single command, the intruder instructs the controlled machines to launch one of many flood attacks against a specified target. The inundation of packets to the target causes a denial of service. While the press tends to focus on the target of DDoS attacks as the victim, in reality there are many victims in a DDoS attack -- the final target and as well the systems controlled by the intruder. all i had to do was look in google. i keep forgetting to look.

description: I apologize if anyone interprets this as backpedaling or contradicting myself. I think of it more as a clarification. My being overly nice is looked down upon by some people, and I'm sorry if I gave anyone the wrong impression. It takes a lot for me to stop being friends with someone... you pretty much have to outright betray me to make it happen, something that doesn't happen often, but something I take very seriously. So, I invite you all to think what you like about me and act accordingly. If you think I'm a horrible person, then that's fine. If you think I'm doing my best where I can to help keep this game alive, then that's fine, too. Choose to participate in these forums or anything else I run, or don't. I gave you a few days to attack me, now it's ended. I quite honestly do NOT have to time to look back on years-old logs and emails to remember what exactly happened through the twisted lies that have mutated through the years. Overall, these forums have given me the greatest gift of all, for it is here that I first started talking to Blazer, and on November 6th, we will have been together for 4 years. And nothing that you do or say here will change the happiest part of my life and the best outcome of my involvement in the Renegade community. So, I'm not going anywhere. Silent Kane started this month on a project to revive the ladders which they will be hosting on XWIS. The collection part is completed and working very well. Our next step is to store the data in a database instead of flat files. After we restore the basic "ladder points" ranking, we will turn our attention to the clan ladder. Given my background working for the Cisco Networking Academy in their Metrics, Reporting, and Evaluation department and also hosting a weekly poker game with a semi-annual "ladder", I am quite qualified to lead the creation of this aspect, and if anyone wants to consult in this process, I will be inviting that within the next few weeks (it will be after the public ladder r…

description: Don't get me wrong, Crimson...I apprechiate what you and BHS have done for Renegade, but it seems a lot as if have a few skeletons in your closet through your friendship with Kholdstare. Frankly, I don't really care about who DDoSed who, but isn't it only fair to let Spoony make a case against you when you were (don't know if you still are) accusing him of hacking this site? From what I've read, he did it in a civil way, so suspending him and deleting his threads just looks a lot like a coverup. Offtopic: I'd rather see a working Renguard than anything else.

description: I can't control what my friends do or don't do. Especially when those friends don't even tell me what they're doing. He runs or used to run in the same circles as the people attacking me, so I got information and sometimes he even got them to stop. I know damn well that if he gets mad, he'll do anything he can to get back at whoever makes him mad. But Spoony is not one to throw stones when his house is made of glass. I know you all want RenGuard. I do, too. (Remember, I run a server and still play, too) This ladder project isn't interfering with that (most of the time-consuming but not terribly difficult work is my job and I'm not personally working on RenGuard) -- Silent Kane has only "wasted" a few days getting the server software to collect data and it hasn't interfered with his part of the RenGuard project. My announcement this week will speak to that as well. Also, I no longer accuse him of the deletion of threads in RenForums. The triumphant and mocking tone of the way he notified me made me think it was him at the time, but now, as I've said before, I know who really did it. But I will not retract my accusation that he was involved with (asked for, performed, or is close friends with the one who performed) a DDoS attack against all of my servers which resulted in a total RenGuard network outage which occurred around that same time. (Something he has not denied or confirmed)

(Something he has not denied or confirmed) Even if he was (I don't have a clue, just making a point here), what is wrong with being close friends with the person? Aren't you close friends with Khold who's done similar things? I think some months ago Khold banned roh from playing in your server and you had to go and unban him. He's also abused his powers by !killing them (quite awhile ago, yes, but still), even as such times as to steal vehicles. Tell me what's so different then a person !killing innocent players than someone cheating? They're both doing it to piss people off, I don't know how you can really like someone who does that shit. But I'm not here to tell you who to like or dislike. I'm still baffled you let silent Kane still be a moderator on n00bstories, though. I'm not trying to start an argument here and I'm certainly not insulting you. I'm just sort of curious

Cimson, It's good that you have made a response to Spoony's posts - don't see the need to delete all the threads or ban him, he raised an issue and requested a response, it seems there was some truth in what he had to say and I think an open clarification of the truth would have looked better. I respect you both for what you have done for the community, I find it hard to believe Spoony would be involved in any attacks - seems Spoony accussed you of downtalking him and the cw.cc ladder, is there any truth in this? cw.cc has been the only place for people to play competitively pretty much ever and BHS has done a lot for the community - can't help thinking the community would be better off if the people left that still care would just work together and not bad mouth other peoples efforts.

description: Spoony sez... now she's wrongly accusing me of ddosing Renguard Not NOW. Accused you quite some time ago. In fact I have accused of it publicly ever since the first packets hit the boxes. But it's ok, you admit that you did: Spoony on CW forums n00bstations were hosted by Olddust, and I didn't really feel like being in the middle of a big ddos war so I approached the three parties to try to negotiate a peaceful, non-ddos solution... olddust said yes, n00bstations said yes, crimson de-modded me from n00bstories and wrongly accused me of hacking Renegadeforums.com [Roll Eyes] Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't "being in the middle of a DDoS war" involve attacks from BOTH SIDES? And wouldn't that then mean that olddust, who is your friend and co-owner of non00bs or whatever you're calling yourself these days... is ALSO guilty of sending DDoS attacks? Maybe he didn't realize that hitting everything Blazer and I own would shut down the entire RenGuard network, but it would certainly be something that should have been considered, no? So, thanks for admitting to the attacks and totally negating your argument about my friendship with Kholdstare. Unlike you, I don't put my friend into a position of power on my servers or anything else I run because I know how his temper can run. And whether I was friends with him or not would NOT change how he behaves, so I fail to see how it's relevant. Furthermore, EVEN IF Blazer had hacked the old Westwood forums, (and that's a big IF), I have two questions. 1) Why would Westwood give me the forums after they shut down? 2) How would that in any way prove that I or anyone I know impersonated some clan members 4 years ago? 4 years ago! Remember this. Think about how lame it is that someone is diving back 4 years to find some dirt on me, just to promote the website he inherited or whatever. And they call me pathetic.

description: considering I ran n00bstations, who the hell is Olddust? Im assuming iccy. The attacks that happend towards n00bstations, were never directly "tied" to crimson. Allthough we did know her community members, or some of themwere tied to it, from logs that were given to us from members of the n00bstories community. Once renguard was taken down by the person that did it, and we spoke with crimson for her to put the word out to leave n00bstations alone, the attacks stopped. But this is all in the past, so why is it being drug up now? The attacks against n00bstations were supposedly done because n00bstations was to close of a name to n00bstories, and certain people felt n00bstations was taking n00bstories traffic. What Spoony has to do with this is beyond me, to my knowledge he wasnt involved in it, unless iccy brought him into it, I dont recall speaking with him, but this was quite some time ago, so my memory of who all was involved may be a little foggy.

Unlike you, I don't put my friend into a position of power on my servers or anything else I run because I know how his temper can run. And whether I was friends with him or not would NOT change how he behaves, so I fail to see how it's relevant. "Unlike you" ? By this I assume you mean spoony. How did Spoony put olddust into power? wasn't Olddust the one hosting, and the one who put himself into power? Where does this fit in with him? about the ddos war, I don't see how it proves anything connecting to spoony or him doing anything wrong, i mean, you never really denied he wanted a peaceful resolution to start with. Why wasn't that route taken? Because you thought spoony hacked the forums? We're getting off tangent anyways, the purpose of the argument is for a clan ladder. The real question is what is so wrong with clanwars? Spoony would love to hear criticisms that tie into the ladder. If there's something that you think needs fixing, what is it? Is it all because of the fact that there are idiots on the forum? If so, If there are idiots in this new clan ladder, are you going to ban them? Just for being idiotic? That seems unfair, because for one, who is anyone to really judge that? How far does idiotic go to be something to be banned for? Why is it that spoony should ban the idiots, meanwhile there are plenty of people here who joyously take pleasure in insulting ack and others on a personal level. If you t…

You guys won't be satisfied until I say Spoony was 100% right, and I can't do that because he's not. I agree that the discussion should have always been about the merits of the CW ladder and the integrity of its leadership, founders, owners. But some people have to resort to ad hominem and attack the person instead of the argument. I sincerely hope that the CW ladder is run with a lot more integrity than it did when I into clanning. I really do. But given the way that community has treated me in the past, I am not going out of my way to find out if they've changed and support or promote what they're doing. If they (the CW founders, not Spoony) are not going out of their way to listen to me and stop childishly insulting me, then I'm not going out of my way to help them in any way.

It is really the truth and an unfortunate consequence of when these sorts of things get out of hand.

One thing about the administration at cw is that you don't even know who they are. Spoony is an admin, but the main Renegade admins are unknown so that they dont get caught up in petty arguments.. So how can you really dislike someone when you don't even know who they are? And even if you dislike the administration, you basically won't ever have to talk to them except in AR or AM threads. Are you really saying that you dislike the administration or do you mean that you dislike how it is being run?

The only possible reasons why someone could object to cw.cc are either unhappyness about their system or the people running it. Their league system was refined of the years and I don't think even Crimson will find any flaws in it. There's a reason it's the official ladder for the post-Westwood EA games. So how about personal hatered towards the clanwars owners...apart from that it's childish, it doesn't apply either, since the only two people still here who were involved with the feud back in the day would be Crimson (who doesn't play clanwars) and ACK (who doesn't play Renegade). BTW: You don't have to interact with the owners of cw.cc at all in order to play on the Renegade league...Spoony is the highest up person you'll have to deal with from there. Apart from the fact that nobody needs a 2nd clanladder, the process of making once just takes time away from the things that really need to be taken care of (Renguard).

And wouldn't that then mean that olddust, who is your friend and co-owner of non00bs or whatever you're calling yourself these days... is ALSO guilty of sending DDoS attacks? Maybe he didn't realize that hitting everything Blazer and I own would shut down the entire RenGuard network, but it would certainly be something that should have been considered, no? To the absolute best of my knowledge, Olddust had not attacked you at that point. I'm not saying he hadn't. I'm saying I that if he did or didn't, I didn't know either way. And technically still don't. I proposed a non-ddos solution to PREVENT a ddos war, not STOP one. To the utmost god-honest best use of my information at that point, the only ddos attack was coming from Kholdstare. I simply knew Olddust would very likely retaliate and I actually respected you back then, so I stepped in to a situation that had nothing to do with me and tried to calm things down from a neutral perspective. again: olddust said yes, jschultz said yes, you said no and de-modded me from N00bstories.

Just a quick observation about the "spoony either did the ddos attack on renguard, or ordered the ddos attack on renguard, or is friends with the person who did the ddos attack on renguard". It'd be much like me saying "crimson, I accuse you one of having one of the following connections to 9/11: either you carried the attacks out personally, or you planned the attacks, or you funded the attacks, or you watched the attacks on TV". The harmless 25% of that post is probably true, but the slightly more incriminating 75% isn't and the fact the harmless 25% is true doesn't make the whole accusation somehow valid.
