I spent ####ing hours (probably days) trying to dig into how that could have happened and came to the conclusion that it made no sense. I walked so many different code paths and poked around, it didn't seem possible the way the log had it.

As Nep said, there aren't any imm tools to do something that subtle. Most of the ones we have are very 'brute force', a la dispel/cancel they'd just blow off all your buffs and the person losing the buffs would see that.

For about the first two sentences...then I get bored and fall asleep. The random number generator at times is your friend, and at times is your enemy.

>Who played Aarakocrus?

I also thought it was Tureanthen.

Zulghinlour...duh...

There is a moron flag, but it cannot be seen via who/whois/etc. It can only be seen via stat.

This does exist.

charm + tesseract to the black hole was nasty

Actually it was a ban to all area explore content based on IP at the reqeust of Scarabaeus. I do think you guys were one to get a ban at some point.

>SMUG were guilty until proven innocent.

I don't know that I'd go that far, but it sure seemed like you didn't care about being innocent. It wasn't hard to find proof of guilt in other words.
