Title: Hey, What is This?
Post by: rcallicotte on February 12, 2008, 07:29:32 AM
I was glimpsing through the people's activities of everyone online and found this one -

Guest - 07:22:55 AM - Nothing, or nothing you can see...

What does this Nothing You Can See mean?  Seems suspicious.

I'm going to guess it could be an admin, on one of "admin" forums ;)

It would explain the "nothing you can see" bit, or a hacker XP who knows! heh

I've also seen this and have in the past considered posting about it, but decided not to for one reason or another and I to would be interested I what it means; some thing else I've seen with "Users On line" is some times next to the number of users currently on line in parenthesis it says "X number Hidden" how may I ask is it possible to be a hidden user?

Regards to you,

Yeah, it's a Guest.  But, what is this "guest" doing?  How did they change that label?

Hush!!! You are not supposed to let them know that they plan to use the next TG2 to re-render the world. Stop, think, keep it secret! ..... Ooops!!  ;D

I think it might be like singing up for the forums or changing a password and stuff.

Don't trust her.  It's a clever disguise.  Didn't even need a warrant.

The guest didn't change the text - that's one of the built-in messages for the forums. It's just saying that the guest is performing an action that you can't get details on. Very possibly they're signing up or using "forgot password" or something.

Post by: mr-miley on February 15, 2008, 08:54:53 AM
No, not the kitty (though now you come to mention it....) The bloke is Blofeld from the earlier James Bond movies. The ultimate "mwoooohaha, mad as a hatter, continually trying for world domination" villan

"Ah, Mr Bond, so we meet again"

I think h was head of SMERSH or something like that  ;D

Post by: mr-miley on February 15, 2008, 06:26:34 PM
Well Oshyan?...... we're waiting *taps foot impatiently on floor, fag hanging out of corner of mouth, arms tightly folded, hair in curlers, apron on*

Young man, come out of that bedroom NOW. You told us you were doing a science project! And I have to find out from that nice Mr Bond (a stranger already) that you were working towards World Domination all along! YOU are in serious trouble young man *wags finger at firmly closed bedroom door with "Parental Advisory, Adult Content" poster pinned to it*

Soon Oshyan awakes to find himself tied to a chair in a dark room with only a single lamp to illuminate him.

Post by: Oshyan on February 15, 2008, 11:26:41 PM
Hehe. My favorite Bond take-off has always been "You Only Move Twice", the Simpsons episode with "Mr. Scorpio" (voiced by Albert Brooks). Great parody.

Anyway, um, I look like this: http://terrain.cg-arts.org/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;attach=1;type=avatar

To clear this all up, -would you mind shaving and posing with a cat.
