Well, the notorious |The|Specialist has once again wreaked havoc on AO. Well, not really. But he did have a little fun at Katja's expense.

A few days ago, former (and repetitively banned) member |The|Specialist created an account under the name Katja Bergman. Using this account, he requested that Negative ban Katja's account - which he did apparently w/out question. Tsk, tsk Negative... tsk, tsk.

The Katja Bergman account was effectively banned after |The|Specialist posted a negative comment about a tutorial Gore wrote (surprise, surprise)...

Negative was recently 'enlightened' by |The|Specialist.

So - what's to keep this from happening again?? Hopefully wiskic10_5 doesn't show up tomorrow and have this account banned

The original accountholder should have been contacted for confirmation, IMHO. (No offense to Negative - to err is human)

Now, I'm not one to point fingers or bitch about things on AO... I'm generally a lurker and usually only chime in if I've something constructive (or humorous) to say. But this, my friends, is a tad ridiculous. I mean, I never really cared for Katja, anyway - and I really don't care much about how things are run here on AO. But, since it *is* a computer-security site, let's try to practice what we preach guys...
