I personally am not at risk, as this guy does not know me or my part in making the scripts. The bummer is that a good friend is.
As for the rollover part, it is true. Why would I lie? Some Mulder-esque conspiracy by VI to spread FUD? Please. I am a kooky anti-cheating zealot? Would desccribing the steps to setting up SEQ including installing the new GCC3 rpms convince you? Describing the incorporation of cool SINS features into SEQ? Giving you snippets of our code?
Don't believe me if you don't want /shrug. Have a mod check my IP. You'll find that I am far from the sunny San Diego offices of VI. Unless you believe I work there and am IP spoofing so that the seekrit FUD plan is more believable.
We all imagine the GMs know more than they do. From what I was told, all they knew was that he was macroing, not how. THey didn't have any conception that *any* program could be used to exp, much less which one. That is why they were so interested in the program and the script.
Does any of this mean immediate quantifiable danger to anyone here? No. Just cautionary. Sorry if that was not clear at the outset.
As to my post count, i've had nothing to say. I only registered here to pass along the warning. I think the less publically visible traffic here the better, especially if VI folks actually read this board.

Lol, that is just too funny, seems to use the same spelling and grammar as the
Tards that keep releasing versions of the Klez Virus.
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, but most of them stink.

I say the only real Tards in all this mess would be the GMs, for saying they don't know anything about programs such as MQ, and enticing a newbie to fill them in.
WHAT TARDS!

Zaviar was obviously joking.

Did someone actually ban him or is that just his new title?

Salutations,
someone banned him. 1) please do NOT going around with jokes like that. 2) the person who did did so because he said he was a verant employee and his IP was traced to san fransisco.

I see. Well, just remember never to ban me because I don't live in Frisco. (See? I said Frisco! That proves it

) Ok that was a lame joke.
