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 ).

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.

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.

Human tolerance and emphases plays role upon bannage, not fucking bullshit policies. You said about the so-called zero-tolerance policies, but why strager isn't unbanned? Unfortunately not all will stop repeating their behaviour.

Back to topic, I agree with Ph0X's statement with poor security. If game is hackable (not that can be avoided anyway), then even forum and account controls can be haxed as well. Just look at strager. Just code here and there bla bla bla and get your ztrout automatic voting image forgetchamalit thinginamagicky.

Can't edit signatures, but I can remove them from a post entirely.

Pretty sure it was only in the post though.

Cheaters prove securities are weak. Nothing changed. Yes, I cheat; nothing will change the fact. Thank you for saying I'm a man, alot.
Carry on.

Finding out a hole in security is one thing, using it for your own profit is another one.

Don't defend strager now, recidivists do not deserve for any forgiving and it's fine he's gone forever. Cheaters & hackers & other lame stuff deserve to die, deal with it. Remember you were given second chance, don't waste it.

I think there should be general reminder in Official News section that any attempt to hack will be detected sooner or later and will cause immediately account deletion. There really should be zero-tolerance policy.

Finding a security hole/exploit/etc. and making peppy/the devs aware: Good.

Exploiting said issue for lulz: Punishable, but possibly forgivable.

Exploiting after given a second chance: Unforgivable.

I'm disappointed that it ended this way... strager you wootpooting supportergot :(

This, basically.

Then again I'd not be surprised if he were on IRC bypassing the ban or something.
