I have banned quite a few accounts/IPs and will continue to do so as I investigate.

I'm doing my best to avoid banning innocent accounts but there's a possibility of some getting banned.

If your account gets banned and you are not linked with the recent incidents involving shard advertising, DDoS threats and other such actions, send me a PM.


As for the DDoS threats, our data center has been made aware and I will be contacting an attorney who I know personally, on Sunday.

Wow, now he's prank calling my house. I'm currently in the process of getting the police involved.

How does Ultima create such drama?

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:26943

Good question.

Somehow it always does.

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:26944

Yep it's sad really. The proxies and mass account creations are one thing, but prank calling my house at 3:00am non stop is crossing the line.

I'm gathering all the info I can at this point to let his ISP know of his actions. They're all proxies though but I think one of the IP's I have is his home IP though it's very hard to tell, could easily be a friend too.

This is something I really don't need to be going through right now and I will do everything legally possible to stop it.

If he's done now I am willing to drop the case but if he continues I will be seeking legal action. Unfortunately the call trace did not work and the police were not able to help unless it worked but I work for the phone company and I'll check with the DMS techs to see if there is other options. He also left a bunch of harassing voice mails.

We also got DDoS threats and the data center has been made aware of it and are monitoring the server. There is a Cisco Guard XT before the server so small attacks should be barely noticeable and give the NOC enough time to respond to it.

He seriously needs help.

if it makes you feel better, he smurfed the vent server after I banned him from it a week ago orso.

Some peoples kids...

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:26976

Yeah it's sad people will stoop to this level. He simply does not know when to stop. It's burning me out, but I'm not about to give up either, he's only making me more pissed off. I already have his local police involved in the investigation and I did not get a chance to talk to my attorney yet but I'll call him up when I get the chance.

wow Red, sorry to hear you have to go thru so much drama. We all appreciate everything you do.

new product idea stress bomb to blow up the idiots who annoy u

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27080

Just a quick update. I contacted his local police department by phone just now to get an update on 2 emails I sent, as well as to check if they even can do anything, specifically about the prank calls. They said they'll get their investigators on it sometimes this week.

I also confirmed his home address thanks to google earth and a youtube video of outside his window that he posted, so I know I'm contacting the right police department.

About the DDoS threats that I'm not sure if police can do anything, but if he goes around threatening people like that on a regular bassis, chances are they will be doing something.

We're also still waiting for the ventrillo server logs, which I'll forward to his ISP once I get.

but you still forget one little thing... evidence, something you appear to lack.

Police cannot take action unless something has actually been done and clearly in this case if i was the officer dealing with you i would throw you in a cell for a few hours for wasting police time.

This is not entirely true. If you don't think so, stand up in a plane and shout that you will blow the plane up. You won't have anything on you to do so, but see what happens.

Numerous prank calls are not legal and can their list from a phone company be used as evidence.

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27175

Oh trust me. We have evidence.

If it helps, I also happen to work for the phone company. I don't have access to any of the data, but I can confirm it exists and is there. DMS logs.

Just a note that I banned over 100 suspicious accounts just now and these bans will continue. There is just too much suspicious activity going on the shard as of late and I can almost guarantee he's still around.

Once this all settles down I may unban any accounts that I am requested to unban but for now I will not as I don't know if I'm even talking to the owner of an account when someone asks me to reset a password or anything.

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27209

Well, get designing your DB then import it . Should be easy

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27219

Not easy right now since every night when I go to work, some other shard issue comes up.

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27223

No unbannings even if we can vouche 100% for them? Tony Montana got blocked I think and I can assure you its really him. Talk to him in vent every day, and Redrum is horrible at voice impersonations even tho he thinks hes great at it....

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27224

redrum's voice sounds like he has a tie wrap really tight on his balls tbh. I so wish I had recorded those prank calls, that's youtube material right there.

Anyway, I will be unbanning the ones I'm 100% sure, so tony and his sister were apparently banned so I will unban them. He pmed me a list of accounts and they are legit. I'm not sure at this point if their IP is also banned or not but I'll check using their last IP from forums.

lol, I hope you have adherred stickers to all of your doors and put up baby gates in the hallways.

Seriously though, whoever is threatening you is seriously sad and in need of a life.

I just laughed really hard irl.. i havnt been around but wow, grow up.

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27984

I loled at that too. I had told him that I could easily knock his server offline, meaning I just have to send an email to comcast but he was hoping I meant to illegally knock it offline.

I have not heard anything since we got a lawyer and the police involved so not sure what happened.

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27985

I mean is this like some kid?

or some grown ass man still figuring out puberty?

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:4211, old post ID:27986

By the sound of his voice in the prank calls, he was not quite done puberty yet.
