I guess one of the REAL Moderators deleted his posts, he made 2 of them.. Please say you got the IP address! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif I am going after this guy bigtime.. What did the posts say btw?

Remember everyone, The ONLY Moderators are the ones listed in the Moderator 'list' for each forum.. and instead of those special titles/avatars, they simply have blue stars, and the title 'Moderator'-- so don't trust any screen-name as Moderator, Admin, sysop, ect.. I've added code to the forum to now watch for a BUNCH of certain screen names to track them down real quick. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

SOME people are just losers.. I wonder who it was.. any ideas??

Many blades cut despite if they are made from mettle or wood, but the sharpest and deadlyist blade it the one of knowledge.

Hmm, let's hope this guy was just joking instead of really acting as a mod...
Anyway, isn't there a way to preregister certain usernames in the admin center of the board? I know Ikonboard has it, not sure about UBB.. Else you could always register names as "Administrator" or for what it's worth "God" yourself, Ziroc... Just to make sure no one else is able to take those usernames and abuse them... http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Hey Z, I'm guessing it was just a troll. I never saw the posts at any rate. Could the person have deleted them him/herself?

It was a joke by a member here. He deleted his posts himself, I don't think you'll see him again.

His posts were "welcome (me) to Ironworks" and when we got suspicious (I admit I fell for it at first http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/FRblush.gif ) he posted something like: "AAAARGH!!!! YOU GUYS ARE NO FUN!!!!!
http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/blitz1.gifhttp://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/blitz1.gifhttp://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/blitz1.gif"
OK?
BTW It wasn't Yorick but the user would prefer to stay anonymous.

Thank you Kaz. Doesn't sound like he/she did any real damage or made anyone do something by claiming to be a moderator. That's what I was concerned about when I saw the first post here.

Dan, hope you can ban that imposter!

http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif no Ziroc I didn't get his IP address because I didn't see those posts... was over by the Polls (sometimes the trolls worked TOO fast! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif )

I'll keep an eye out for you... http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Whats the big deal about having a name that says Moderator or Administrator or Webmaster or something like that? We all know who the mods are anyways..
