I think you should have asked him to delete his post or at least warned him ahead of time before you banned him. He had 196 posts and tried to design some stuff based on eqemu. He did post under the correct topics too (now at least). And, I have played Diablo II before and have been scammed. But thats just part of playing it. Almost all the people attempt to scam other people. By now they would have known not to trust others. If people fall for it then thats by there own choice. BTW... no one told him the javascript code for it anyways. So why does it matter now?
I understand he was a pointless poster but I have been watching these forums and reading. This may be my first post, but I know whats right and whats wrong. I have seen people who have tried to destroy eqemu project but this... come on... he didnt state that it was directed towards eqemu did he? No. He said it was going towards a game where scamming and pulling pranks on other members isnt unusual.
The program he was talking about was a program where the mouse goes crazy and it doubles up. Then it makes your character run into the corner of the map leaving all his inventory there to be taken. The only way to cure it is to restart the computer. I have scanned on Norton Antivirus and Micafee but have found no viruses on it. The people who activate it usually do it by choice to trust the other player (which is usually pursuaded or tricked). You can also rename this file to be anything, such as GOD_HACK.exe or anything like that. This program does not really have a real name. Its no big deal anyways. It has this thing where its set to click on certain areas, such as where your money, inventory, and extra storage is set for. Therefore in Everquest or EQEMU the only way it would work is if you left your inventory open, turned on Auto Drop allow drop without confirmation. Personally I think it would only drop your items set in the middle of the inventory such as Chest armor or Pants. Thats about the size of it. I really think you should delete Kyle9's post then, let him come back and watch over him to see what he does next. Give him just 1 more chance I say.
I have run PHP and PHPNUKE forums before, You can ban them with IP ranges or by changing their passwords, so why not e-mail him and ask him for his password and he will tell u, and you can just change it right back again.
This is what I think so whether you consider it or not. I honistly don't care.
Those other people who voted for YES ban him... I dont even think they really even saw his posts. Because no one really hated him besides the DEV's and Mattmeck. They just wanted to see someone get banned...
