tastyspleen.net / Faderjok ban status
« on: September 01, 2012, 01:24:36 PM »
Salutations,
Fader has been banned for about 7 weeks now.
He was banned for conducting an rcon flood attack against a server running on tastyspleen hardware (WHALE) which persisted for at least an hour.
This attack functions by continuously flooding a server with enough rcon packets to disrupt the ability of admins or rcon-based services like WallFly from being able execute rcon commands, thus preventing rcon-based enforcement of kicks, bans, etc. This kind of attack will have a varying degree of success depending on how the Q2 server is configured.
Since shortly after the ban, Fader claims to have broken contact with Razor:

[15:52:05] <quadz> dunno, haven't discussed it w/ the other admins... it won't be less than a month though. you really screwed up pretty royally with that little stunt
[15:52:26] <MCS_FaderJok0> i know
[15:52:28] <MCS_FaderJok0> ;[
[16:12:05] <MCS_FaderJok0> ok

Tue Jul 24
[15:46:37] <jesse> so how have you been spending the banned time fader?
[15:46:56] <jesse> enjoying summer or socializing with razor?
[15:47:15] <jesse> a little bit of both would be an improvement
[15:47:16] <jesse> ;>
[15:59:54] <MCS_FaderJok0> funny
[16:00:02] <MCS_FaderJok0> but i stopped talking to razor about 3 weeks ago
[16:00:07] <MCS_FaderJok0> <;
[16:04:44] <MCS_FaderJok0> obviously it's hopeless if about fuckteen different people asked me to stop it
[16:05:33] <MCS_FaderJok0> i don't think he was very happy about it either coz i see him impersonating my name at fusters from time to time
Anyway...
After discussion w/ other admins, the consensus seems to be to unban at this point.
Mitigating factors were:
- the attack causes no permanent harm to the Q2 server
- age 16 at the time
- first offense
- seven week ban should be long enough to communicate that this level of offense isn't taken lightly
Stipulations are:
- Fader needs to understand that any further 'shenanigans' of this caliber would likely result in perm-ban.
So:
The ban is now removed.
Go forth and douche thee not.
