I rarely post on the Forums ( total post 86 since Apr 2016) and I was visited too (yesterday at 4:39PM).

There was a thread on reddit about some people getting banned, how to identify it and then someone made a short list about such players, saying it based on what the forum profile says. So it was probably his crawler, you need a forum profile to read the text.

Good theory, I will add it to my list above.

And I'm getting a clairvoyant vision about this thread not making it till Monday.



Why would you think that? I am getting a great laugh at this.

Prior persecution* breeds persistent paranoia.








* I am joking of course. Noone is being persecuted here. Particularly by the moderators, whose work we appreciate. Did I mention how good looking the moderators are, too? Hugely underpaid for what they do, incidentally. And very understanding.

This has to be one of the best shiptoasting threads in a long time and no one is really going off the rails on it.

I heard a rumor that this account is really the account of Stackpole himself. He has come to MWO to save us from our boring lives. Its like Candyman, if you say his name 3 times he comes..... and wouldn't you know, there is a Stackpole thread on the forums right now.

By all rights, MWO Super Alt should report us for creeping on their forum profile. It's a twist!

B/C it's visiting a LOT of people, has never posted, and never played a game.

But mostly because I'm bored at work :P

Yes it has. Really good too - Average 405 MSR. I doubt a bot is pulling that.

Someone is collecting data.

The questions are: what data? And for what purpose?

Our profiles contain:
  • personal information such as birthday, location, gender
  • when we signed up
  • who are our forum friends
  • our topics, posts, numbers of posts, and average frequency of posting
Who would want such data? How could they use it?



Hypotheses:
  • PGI is trying to build a profile of their customer base pre-MW5.
  • Harmony Gold's lawyers are gathering input for their court case.
  • Hackers are gathering personal information for use in payment system fraud.
  • Someone from Reddit is going to analyse and post data on The Brown Sea.
  • Paul is running Sentiment Analysis on posts so he can set the MatchMaker to Punish.
  • Tina suddenly realised there's a community and maybe it has something to do with her job.


Ok, those last 2 made me shoot coffee out my nose.

Well done sir, well done.

Its Googles DeepMind AI!!! Its escaped and is learning how to play not just Dota 2, but now MWO! And when its done here, it will design and build its own 100 ton death machine and no military in the world will be able to stop its dual guass PPC poptarting harbinger of the Apocalypse.
