Fri Jan 13 13:42:59 2006 [Tell] ZionMainframe> Yes
Fri Jan 13 13:43:19 2006 [Tell] CSR_**EDITED**_SYNTAX> It looks like you've been doing some exploiting there, care to tell me about this?
Fri Jan 13 13:43:25 2006 [Tell] ZionMainframe> The **edited** thing?
Fri Jan 13 13:43:31 2006 [Tell] CSR_**EDITED**_SYNTAX> That would be it
Fri Jan 13 13:43:40 2006 [Tell] ZionMainframe> Ya I found a mixup in it
Fri Jan 13 13:43:52 2006 [Tell] ZionMainframe> I didnt report it because I got greedy
Fri Jan 13 13:43:59 2006 [Tell] ZionMainframe> I have reported exploits in the past
Fri Jan 13 13:44:01 2006 [Tell] CSR_**EDITED**_SYNTAX> I can see that
Fri Jan 13 13:44:14 2006 [Tell] ZionMainframe> heck they still havent fixed the **edited** bug where people can **edited**

Fri Jan 13 13:44:41 2006 [Tell] CSR_**EDITED**_SYNTAX> I would also like to mention that if you come back with another account that will also be banned.
Fri Jan 13 13:44:48 2006 [Tell] CSR_**EDITED**_SYNTAX> That goes for any SOE game.

**Disconnected from the Matrix**

What was I banned for?
I found an exploit.. a REALLY good one. I did not report it, but used it for my own gain. I did not tell anyone about this exploit or how to do it. (It was not the XP exploit that was being heavily used and people were being put back to level 2.) They gave no indication if they know what I did or how I did it, but it was obvious that I was doing something you aren't supposed to. I won't get into the details of it because it wouldn't be good for the MxO Community. There is no "injuction" or anything like that forbidding me from talking about it. I just know that if I told people how to do it, it would be duplicated and the already heavily taxed mxo Team would have even more issues to deal with. Questions or comments... contact me below.

What does this mean for you?
-ZionMainframe no longer works (the machines finally hacked it and got the codes).. but if there is a volunteer I'll gladly give the code up so that they can run it. (you need an extra account and computer that can run MxO 24/7)
-TasteeWheat is dead. She was killed by an Agent for being in the wrong place with the wrong things on her.
-SexCrispies died before his time. One too many Exhiles noticed him.
-I'll eventually post all of my screenshots that I didnt want to post before (for obvious reasons).
-Update 1/14/06 I have been banned from logging in to the Winterbrood site as well. So I guess that means I am kicked out of the Brood.

What does this mean for me?
It means I will have more free time to continue to try and make a good life for my friends and family. The MxO Community is absolutly the best. I love you all (in the platonic sense). If you are ever in Denver, look me up for a free place to stay (yes dev team too). I'll pop my head in from time to time on http://www.thematrix.rumbaar.net or http://siradio.fm and post there. But the best way to reach me is below.

Questions? Want to contact me?
IMs (dont email these I don't check them.. this is just for IMs)

john@johnhasson.com (website hasnt been updated in ages)

Matrix Fan Sites I have run:
http://mxoDejaVu.com
http://mxoHouston.com
http://matrixReport.com

I will probably just let the domain's expire on them... except maybe this one.


Other sites I run:
http://johnytech.com
http://unigrep.com
http://unwiredmail.net (Currently being revamped so it doesnt look like butt)
If you need hosting or instant Wireless Email/Contacts syncronization with your PDA let me know I can get you a better rate then the public one. (This thing is really sweet... its essentially better then a blackberry on your Treo or Windows Mobile Cell phone)

-------
I can't post on SOE's boards anymore, so I'll post a response on Rumbaar's site. (mentioned above)

--------
ZionMainframe Code Download here.. ZMF.rar
Readme.txt inside the archive:
ZionMainframe: cobbled together for fun in my sparetime... john@unigrep.com

FAQ:
WTF! Why is this in VB6?
Because I had a lot of previous WinAPI work I had done already in VB6, and since I wanted to just whip this out as a test/prototype vb6 was plenty for my needs. Heck all in all I spent less then 2 days of actual work on the code (and it shows hehe)

Database?
The mxoSyntax Files are SQL Server DB files. I was stupid and put the same connection string in 8 places in the code. (Remember this was a prototype.. never designed for release... code I am paid to write is a million times better.)

Comments?
If you see lots of comments in a section of the code, then I probably found it on google somewhere. There are a few spots where I put comments in.

Support?
Are you kidding me? Haha. Well ok, I can try and answer any questions. If you downloaded this then you know where to find me.

Hints: (not in the readme file)
-Attach the DB
-Change the 8 identical connection strings (what idiot coded that!)
-Set up the path to the Log File that the code reads
-Log in MxO
-Create a macro /macro ME /loc;/pause 5;/use 4 2
-This is a looping macro to fill up your log file buffer so you can respond quickly
The Clear FIle Button will erase the log file... but after you do that..make sure the logfile exists again from the buffer before you click start
-Click Start
-Resolution 1024x768 is helpful tool.. MUST run in windowed mode I think.
-It is coded tro work for other servers.. but the toon must be on Syntax

Ok ok.. if you really want to do it.. I'll do a remote screen session with you and help you get all set up, show you how to use it and what not. Send me an email or IM

None... ZionMainframe is not up, nor will it be until I have a go ahead that the bot is ok to run.

Since I am probably being watched like a hawk I figured it was best to ask.
Well I got an answer from Brewko about ZionMainframe...

The code is still on this site... but run it at your own risk.
