From my understanding he created an image with a script in it that made every person who viewed it in their browser vote for the Ztrout map in the best-of-2010 poll.
So that's why orz...

Isn't a script kiddie someone who just runs premade scripts? AFAIK strager found and abused the exploit all by himself, not that it was hard or anything. They should really learn to have better security.

I don't know what happened, I was just pointing out that particular piece of code. Though script kiddie also refers to exploiters using existing and well known techniques according to wikipedo. Abusing holes/exploits like that is just asking for trouble and skewing an open vote (if indeed that is what happened) is unfair (and unfestive :P ).

Nobody forced Cyclone and Echo to put their time and effort into this... Shows that assuming any level of trust with your users is a bad idea

Maybe you know he shouldn't hack into things

unfortunately that excuse is not justifiable in the slightest since at the end of the day, osu! is maintained primarily by volunteer work and undermining that for shits and giggles just isn't cool.

Take your politics somewhere else, this is my dear strager's funeral thread.

I still wonder why he was deleted when he pointed out a coding error to me and asked me if it caused me to vote for ztrout. I reported it minutes later in hopes that someone would fix it. Then he gets banned moments after that.

I can't help but feel that this was handled very inelegantly, and I agree with Ph0x's statement about the poor code security. It took me, who knows little about coding, a whopping 15 seconds to see how it was executed. And it's not like anyone affected can't just unvote for said map. But whatever, I have bigger disagreements with some aspects of management than this.

I wasn't here. (Again.) But people were saying he had the offending "image" in his signature, causing anyone who looked at any one of his posts to cast a vote. This is clearly above and beyond what's appropriate in pointing out a bug.

Additionally, this is the VERY SAME THING that got him "perma"-banned last time, so he should have expected a zero-tolerance policy. When we unban someone, we expect them to not repeat the very same behaviour.
Shinde
Fairly sure it was in a post that Lybydose edited within a minute or two of me pointing it out. If Lyby can edit users' signatures, then I unsure. That's probably besides your point though. But alas, tis time to sleep then go do Christmas Eve-y things.
