The funny quote thread (NSFW)

[Dream of Omnimaga]

What? And yeah I was curious about their host names, and Ephraim was also active on CW when this happened, which adds further to the confusion (due to what happened in Omni, KOS and Cemetech IRC channels in the last few weeks)

Does /whois or /whowas show more info behind vhosts?

EDIT: Seems like /whowas works, although only for about 30 minutes: DrKurmPhD was ~Kurm ec2-52-11-231-204.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com * :Kurm (meaning the IP address was 52.11.231.204)

[alexgt]

That is weird, also what was happening in the last few weeks on the IRC channels?

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Several ban evasions and impersonations from an user who is either Ephraim himself or an imposter.

[alexgt]

ohh.. I hope it is an imposter, and good luck to those trying to find out who it is

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Yeah I hope as well, otherwise that isn't a good way to avoid also getting banned from #codewalrus. (that would make it 4 sites/channels, which would probably be the second worst record)

EDIT: From Cemetech SAX:

10:35:15 PM [#] [KermPhD] c4ooo: Was what really me?
10:35:29 PM [#] [KermPhD] Is EphraimB impersonating me again?
10:36:28 PM [#] [Kurm] no

Not sure who is Kurm there since SAX doesn't show nick changes/joins/quits/bans/kicks

[alexgt]

Was he banned because of his own actions or the possible imposter's actions

[Yuki]

22:35:18 <KermPhD> c4ooo: Was what really me?
22:35:31 <KermPhD> Is EphraimB impersonating me again?
22:36:27 Kurm has joined ([email protected])
22:36:30 <Kurm> no
22:36:38 Kurm has left (Leaving)

Now with join/parts!

Anyway, from what I gather, this domain was registered sometime late last night and the server is hosted by DigitalOcean. Still not telling me who it is, but it's probably not Ephraim.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Hm... now that gets more interesting.

Cemetech has no public logs, yet that Kurm person could still answer the real Kerm. This means that

1) Either the imposter has access to SAX (which requires a Cemetech forum account that isn't banned),
2) Either the person or his bot is already in the channel under another nickname/hostmask
3) Or somebody is feeding him/her the logs manually or automatically.

And the vhost used by Kurm is the same as the one used by the two impersonating users in #codewalrus earlier.

Hahaha that's hilarious. Let's see where it goes.

* Streetwalrus readies banhammer in case of emergency

[alexgt]

Lol, that would be funny if the imposter actually spend money just for a few words xD

[Ephraim Becker]

What became of those 2 imposters last night?

[Yuki]

Just chilling on the channel like any normal user now I guess.

[Ephraim Becker]

Why did that imposter register cemetech.sucks.fyi and impersonate last night?

[Yuki]

Fun?

[Ephraim Becker]

What do you mean?
