There has recently been a huge vandalism attack on the Tourist Building
World. Fortunately, due to Shoemaker Village's ActiveWorlds Utility, and
Andras's GuardBot, the damage was not irreparable. We have caught the
perpretrator, he is one Gnu32 (cit# 353815). As a fellow world owner, I
URGE you to blacklist this citizen number, to prevent the same happening to
your world. Again I say, all thanks go to Shoemaker Village and Andras,
without whose technology this attack would have been successful.

Khhmmm - I think you should wake up from your dreams!
Vandalism is a common problem in everywhere in the world. Something you can only avoid with a kind atmosphere but not with a police squad. At least this is my experience:) My world is open for tourists since the beginning (1996) and we did not have real problems.
A few here or there can be handled by removing the offending stuff but overall - visitors just love to be there!
Maybe your attitude and your world's policy should be changed so it will not attract vandals?

Just my 2 cents,

Yeah, but all the same, if I dont warn people he might blitz other worlds as
well as mine.

Considering you own the only world of this nature besides AWNewbie, thats
very doubtful.

I agree with Andras. A simple attitude change and perhaps a more positive
outlook on the Active Worlds community in general will be a good deterrant
for vandals.

I want to make a warning to the whole community AW on this user, Gnu32 (cit
#353815). The other day somebody changed the rights of my world with the
purpose of taking off the control and he can enter, and later (casuality??)
this user entered. I think that it can be a lammer that he knows hack
worlds.

Gnu32 is blacklisted in my world since then.

Greetings.

Sorry, forgot to share the news, Me and Lt have come to some sort of an
alliance about.. 3 weeks ago?
So you can stop spreading negativity about me now
Oh, and a piece of advice: Accusing me of hacking a world is probably
one of the most desperate ways to make someone look bad.
And whats the world name? It could be the fact that i world-hopped at
the wrong time.

Ok, I already see that it has been a serious error to put this post. I don't
really know if you were you the one that changed the rights, could have been
another person and being a chance, for that reason I apologize you.
