"Everyone is an idea man. Everybody thinks they have a revolutionary new game concept that no one else has ever thought of. Having cool ideas will rarely get you anywhere in the games industry. You have to be able to implement your ideas or provide some useful skill. Never join a project whose idea man or leader has no obvious development skills. Never join a project that only has a web designer. You have your own ideas. Focus on them carefully and in small chunks and you will be able to develop cool projects."

Re: WARNING !!! Gizmo detected
I will investigate that issue and will deactive the registraion temporarily.
I just got a first PM notification via mail today evening. Even via Facebook the first message arrived me about 2 hours ago, which I've read minutes ago. Now I'm here to see that the site had a problem since yesterday.
Please, in such situations, write to mail@ut99.org immediatly to contact me directly.

Re: WARNING !!! Gizmo detected
Paper does not have a key to the staffroom any more.
luluthefirst originally asked in October for us to delete the account and remove all posts.

All the activity was from the same source, and both banning and blocking have been used while we investigate.
Note: The site security has not been compromised. No admin or moderator access was used.
The spam posts were deleted by the same account
Either a change of heart, or a warning to us, or 2 people fighting over an account.... any of this is possible.

Until we get a reply from luluthefirst, we cannot confirm if it was them or someone using their account.Dr.Flay wrote:Please reconsider what you ask.
Public forums are threaded for a reason, and mass post removals make other peoples posts seem confusing.
So I'm sorry but that is not done in a resource based site like this. It is not like a social media site.
Deleting the posts is not an option unless they are abusive or break the rules.
...or maybe if you just posted in off-topic I could.... *runs to check*
No, sorry but even if we close your account, your posts will be referenced for clarity and still exist.
Just feel free to ignore us, but know that you are welcome back any time.

Re: WARNING !!! Gizmo detected
FUN? This wasn't fun young man!!! This was hell ...we were surrounded by spam-zombies!UnrealGecko wrote:Seems I missed all the fun again
The sole survivors gathered in this thread and tried to fend off the brainless masses ...one could breach our barricades and went behind our defence line.
luluthefirst got infected ...we had to shoot him.
...
And then silence ...suddenly all the spam-zombies stopped and retreated. We could sense their glances, watching us and waiting that we come out of our improvised shelter. one after another vanished.
lulu disappeared as well ...even so he got a bullet in his head.
It was horrifying.
Then, this voice ...we couldn't recognize it ...someone was saying that it was safe to come out... we opened the door and nearly shot him.
It was Shade ...we thought he was long dead ...but there he was, standing with a shovel and bashing in the skull of one of the spam-zombies. We were finally safe. We could breath.
But, what still concerned us was ...what happened with luluthefirst?
We all did see him die ...but his body is nowhere to be found.

Re: WARNING !!! Gizmo detected
Is it ironic that around the same time the spam posts started happening, I got over 200+ E-mails asking for confirmation to join mailing lists? A lot of .gov and .edu websites that all said the same thing.

Did you have a registered account at the Standalone Day-Z forum with that e-mail adress? The only explenation I would have... beside the usual "Coincidence". :)LannFyre wrote:Is it ironic that around the same time the spam posts started happening, I got over 200+ E-mails asking for confirmation to join mailing lists?

Serious hackers usually don't spam. Let's say, these ones just wanted to delete their own hack trail.papercoffee wrote:OK? All the spam got deleted ...who?
