All that Loriel really could have done is make the dumb people that fell for this "prank" sound more intelligent by posting for them.
Moonie, you have to look at more than one side of the picture.
The globals now-a-days are too "ban hammer" happy.

Ok, let me get this straight then...it would be ok if someone else did the same thing, and it would be the members fault for falling for it? It doesnt make people dumb to click on a link in someone's sig, not everyone thinks that everyone else is out to hurt graal or it's members, I had my forums account password stolen already, one time because I clicked on a link that appeared to be a valid forum link...sound familiar? I am certainly not stupid, but I will never click on another link again, heck, I dont even know that I want to click on any link on the forums again, except that I have to, because it's my job to make sure links are appropriate =/
I see both sides, I really do....but the appropriate thing to do would have been to discuss this in private with Robert, not exploit it on the forums, no matter what the reason for doing it. Loriel, I said that you did what you did for fun because you actually told me that, not because it was my opinion....
Just because Robert didnt reply, doesn't mean he wasn't working on the problem
Goboom, that last part of your post really shocked me...as if to say it would be ok for Loriel to steal the forum account to make the members seem more intelligent...who are you to say they are not intelligent, and why do you make it seem as if this would be right?
I have been on Graal for many years, I think I have learned what is legal and what is illegal, I have seen what people get banned for, and what they have not gotten banned for, and I have also watched some globals abuse things because they know they can...tell me, Loriel...If someone had sent a link on GK or whatever place you work on, that was like the link that you had on here, what would you have done?

Now I'd like everyone to calm down a bit. Don't answer too fast, and think before posting. Make intelligent posts, not flood, and stop saying "It's xxx fault" or things like that, it looks like a "Kindergarden" (I forgot the english word, so you'll have the german one... Stefan's influence, probably...)

I am not trying to flame anyone, I am trying to make a point...the point being that a global should not get away with doing something illegal just because he thinks he has a legitament reason for doing so
