Hey,

Thats weird.
never seen that before. has to be some kind of bug.
I think it has to do that before (quit some time ago) when you got banned the ban did not kick in untill you logged in again.
At some point JP created the 'instant ban' feature. You can find the information about in the 'new features forum I believe.
Anyway. It was a funny link.
8 red dots.

I think Noodle is on the right track. However, I didn't seen any other instances to prove the fact. Just by seeing it was back from '91 I would have to assume.
Thats pretty damn impressive.................I can't believe how quick he makes friends.
The auto banning when you got to a certain amount of reds was a feature brought in after the antipoint system was introduced. There are a few old members who got several red dots before being banned by JP.

Well, it was a waste of 20 minutes of my time while I read the entire thread. But on the positive side....... now I know what a true honest to god moronic flame war is. I say keep it around for another few years as a tut. on what NOT to get yourself involved in. (ha ha)
Thankyou powertoad5000 for the link. You have got me un-puzzled. I was kinda thinking that (because i was an old thread) that the AP system was just getting started.

Good job powertoad5000. d00dz Attackin. . . . you have stumbled upon a very well known member. He had the accounts Chemical, Oblio, Hehbris, Debris, and many other screen names I cannot remember. He was a thorn in the side of AO. Thank God he is gone. Another "infamous" AO member was Seb-G. I believe that was his nick. There are some really great posts from back then. Everyone should spend some time researching old posts. Great info. . . and some great times. Trust me. :) Enjoy guys.
What I will find funny is if he is a well knowin member on AO. If he is it's good that he changed. If not its good he left. Thankyou d00d (RogueSpy) for the names. I will check out some of the old posts.

hehe....how it seems the one just got lucky or something...but well you know the ending
LOL, Quad would be jealous .... :D
I belive this was before the AP's where fully able to ban, and there for he amounted alot of AP's before her was manualy banned.
Rogue, I think you meant Sebastian12, lol that was funny...
Besides with Oblio around you could flame in style ;)
Vic!? You don't remember Seb-G? Heh. Here is a thread he posted in. Scrol down. . you will see him. click here Here are some other "infamous" characters in AO's history: Eating_Scarlett, Raditz, Giovanni (If you search back you will find a nice long Flame from Neg to Giovanni , heh) sebastos12 (as Vic said), Gbin@ryR .
I don't know how many of the older members here remember this thread. . . but it was fun while it lasted. lol.

edit: I think Seb-G was the worst member AO has ever had.
When I see the threads I missed back then, it hurts my heart.
Anyway RogueSpy thanks to a link to the past, I saw a lot of familiar names I don't see around these days. AO has really evolved. I need to do a search myself to catch up on the stuff I missed while I was gone....:)
Guidance...
DAMN That thread is long. But the one with Seb-G should go in tech humor very funny, it got me laughing. ;). Thanx for the laugh RogueSpy. Looks like you had some get times back then.
Cya
heh i had forgoten about all those guys I was just starting out in AO around the time of oblio - well a wee bit before i think as i was kinda established (i think!?) when the flame wars started....
heh i miss those days now :( was nothing better than a nice long flame to get rid of all the stress after a hard day.
Hmmm maybe we should persuade the new overlords of AO to create a forum were ap's do not apply (and each member is given a unique flame board name so no reprisals can be made outside of that forum) were people can flame away again just for the hell of it
is such good stress relief (and fun)
/me wanders of in search of scriptliddie-forums.net to sign up to - bound to be something worth applying some constructive critism to in a place like that ;)

edit -> ok a quick question.....this is an issue that i have quite hazy memories off and maybe an idea of what happened but the details of which i am unsure. I only thought about it when reading that old post and saw a fimiliar name....well what was once a familiar name around the boards but one now that i think only a few of the older members will remember (prolly those who have been around 2yrs+ maybe not so long perhaps 18months??) Remote_Access_
What happened that he got banned? From what I remember he was a good contributer to the forums and the community as a whole...I know he wasn't mmixed up in the whole alliance thing that caused the banning of some of the other senior members as i think he was already gone before then.....
I hope that if it was something quite contreversial that i have not stirred up a hornets nest - surely it has been long enough for whatever rift or whatever happened to have healed over by now........dont want to step on anyones toes, just blame my natural curriousity!
I also have a vague recolaction of him coming back with an almost identical nick but where is he now? I know alot of the older members have simply drifted away, is thats whats happened or is there another explination? I know there was some kind of court case but i thought that was resolved without the loss of his liberty or am i wrong?
Anyone remember/know whats happened? If its not appropriate to discuss in an open forum please pm me
thanks
2nd edit -> heh well he aint vanished at all.....well i suppouse he has a bit. As was surfing round forums i noticed my name as the most recent poster to the 'how do i' forum - not realising this thread is in that forum i decided to invistiagte exactly what post i had replied to recently in that foum and lo & behold 2 threads down (here was the man himself - so RA maybe you can shed some light on the subject???
Valhallen, this explains it all;

v_Ln are you reffering to this thread:
Hacking Challenge
It was recently brought up by RogueSpy. in the following thread:
Please be careful!
I wonder what happened to the dude.
Rogue dug up some other thread as well. Like this one:
This message is for Louie aka limp1058 (Warning to Skidiots )
I personnally like the following alot:
Raditz, this one's for you...
There was one more about Negative flaming Sebastian12 (?) about greeks and stuff but I could not dig it up.
Sorry bro, a bit tired. (why do I clear my IE cache ?)
Whatever happened that got R_A_ banned I do not know.
Well anyways

doing some scouring of older threads at the min (forth coming post - nothing major so don't get excited just doing some collecting ;)) so once again thanks for doing the leg work for me.....
I was completly wrong with my vague recolection of why i thought he had been banned - lol
really didn't link his banning to ap abuse at all

The Rise And Fall of the Greek Genius
That was the one I was looking for ;) . (Oh yeah, I remember now I visited your profile and your site a couple a days back. ;) )
The other link you posted VictorKaum,
hacking challenge is fake! very important! got linked to in one of the other links (/me looks puzzled) anyways thank for adding.
noODle :spit:
BTW I agree that the search engine could use some tweaking.
VictorKaum, RogueSpy-
did that whole ordeal with "freeagent" get cleared up or is it still on the hush, hush. That was some crazy sh*t that happened. It kind blew my my mind.

Ah, the memories. Now gloriously irrelevant and wonderfully approachable, with all culpability and actual recollection of the event lost in time... Not that what's already been said isn't accurate. :)
Noone caught the hidden link yet? It is in my last post. It directs you to the Negative / Giovanni thread. :rolleyes:Quote:

Don't know. We left it up to JP. Things just got quite about it. I know FreeAgent never came back. . . well. . . . he probably created a new nick. . . but noone knows. The good ole days. ;)Quote:

You know, from my perspective, some things are best left in the past. There are certain members that I'm glad aren't coming back. So not all of it was the "good ol' days".
MsMittens : true but there was some funny ass posts going around :)
the only thing i miss about some of the people who have either gone for good or started a new nick and are behaving is the flame war's that always erupted - some people may think they are just a waste of server space and annoying but I think that when written inteligently and with a good twist of dark humour they can be a most enjoyable read
v_Ln
You could be wrong Rogue... there seems to be a FreeAgent in the web development forum. It's possibly the same one, at least the profile is very similar.Quote:

About that case, I notified the target site about their open proxy problem and communicated trough email with them until that prob was solved, never heard of them again...
I agree! "The Rise and Fall of the Greek Genius" is the supreme example of such statement.Quote:

There was another one, with Oblio and friends I believe, where we applied logic and semantics against each other... that search engine definitly needs soem tweaking :(
you stole my avatar now you will pay

gawd... dem good ole days.. flames were flying.. people were excited. :D
folks were "threatening to leave".. one or two (i ain't saying) were busted
for pot or whatever.. the AP system was just getting off the ground.
there were even some good security threads.. not that we noticed :D
a few more blasts from the past.. "MocFaester" power gone to his head i guess.
in addicts forum... http://www.antionline.com/showthread...hreadid=228225
and let's not forget "Noble Hamlet " or "freeon/bonfire".. both these guys were "good"
until something snapped.. most likely their "brains on the AP system"..
