I think you forgot to mention the huge DDoS attack that olddust sent at all of my servers, crippling the entire RenGuard network. I mean, in the interest of honesty and fairness. I didn't just pretend there was a huge outage. There actually WAS a huge outage, and it WAS caused by olddust... no one involved except him had the capacity to launch such a large attack at that time and it was common knowledge among a large segment of the community that he had quite a substatial botnet.

Is that why, when you said this to Jschultz, you said it didn't matter whether it was true or not?

Not to rehash this old, old, shit but the "n00bstations" name was TOO similar to n00bstories. So similar, in fact, that I was fielding complaints from unsatisfied players on the "n00bstations" server who read the name quickly and assumed it was "n00bstories". I could not and would not tolerate someone making a server that had a very similar name to the community I had established, then to have it run by n00bs at the time who were pissing off players. And I think a lot of people can attest to the fact that jschultz liked to piss people off, at least back then and even as recently as the last few months. Maybe you guys didn't care, but you guys weren't the owners of "n00bstories" which the name strongly resembled. Though I had nothing to do with any alleged attacks, I did express to anyone who would listen my displeasure with their choice of name and I did ask for it to be changed and even offered to pay for a new domain registration.

The fact that the names are similar (which was probably an accident anyway) is much, much worse than what Kholdstare did. You wouldn't condemn the actions of "your pet bulldog" (and I'm using your expression there, not mine), if you remember, yet you were ALL OVER someone having a superficially similar community name...

You might be talking about the time xptek and friends used a phpBB exploit and deleted stuff, prompting the move to FUDForum. If so, I would imagine that the repeated acknowledgement by both myself and the attackers of who the attackers were should have been sufficient enough for you not to bring this pointless crap up again.

When was this, because I sure as hell never saw it...

Uh oh, I'm repeating myself again. My old disputes with the CW clan do not include any alleged faked screenshots.

Alleged? There's no "alleged" about it. WL faked a screenshot which "proved" that Oomp posted a topic in the private forums saying he'd never let WL get ahead of CW on the ladder and if they shaved the points off gradually, no one would notice.

If I recall it took Bluuurrr about five minutes to find half a dozen things wrong with the screenshot (incorrect registration dates, member numbers, pixellation etc) and Stripey another ten minutes to find another dozen more mistakes WL made.

There is no "alleged" about this.

Let's not forget the "stealing CW players' accounts on this very forum" either. Either of those two things is sure as hell worse than anything I've ever done on this game.

Let's see, how about the last time I tried to share some information with that community, someone posted anonymously calling themselves "Crimson" and put words in my mouth, words that TO THIS DAY I still have to live up to even though I NEVER SAID THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE! But why should I be worried about that, it's just my reputation, that's all. And none of this glorified staff could even lift a finger to say "hey, we compared IPs and this anonymous person wasn't Crimson at all". To allow someone to be impersonated isn't really what I would call "professional". It is something that I never allow and threaten fake bodily harm for.

Big deal admin-wise, most likely they missed the topic or figured it was a joke. I know it wasn't long after that thread that you couldn't post anonymously, so maybe that's why...
I think there's a little distinction between an admin not noticing that (or possibly not paying it too much heed) and an admin actually stealing someone's account, as happened to the CW guys on this very forum.

That topic is long gone by the way, those forums aren't even viewable anymore... but would you like me to make a sticky thread on Smak Forums explaining that it wasn't you? I don't really see what else you expect me to do...
