OK. Let's weigh this out.

1) Helix posts about a practice game on his server and provides the corp name, corp password, and subspace channel. (Why would Helix do that?)
2) I supposedly take this information, log into Helix's server (using my own IP which was supposedly banned even though Helix says I use proxies) and using Tweetys name (one of my corpies).
3) I supposedly take stuff and screw up an unimportant game.

Helix must think that I am stupid or that everyone else is stupid for believing such a fabricated lie.

This is a lie that can't be proven or disproven, so it's basically his word against mine. However, that's the way Helix wants it because you really can't prove that a lie is true.

Dude. I already said that is my IP address. But that IP address was never logged into Helix's server. This is a fabricated lie on Helix's part. The information that Helix sent Tweety was not true. Anyone can edit log files and send text.
If you'd like I can provide text that would show that you duped on my server, but that doesn't make it true.

Do you really think anyone would log in with thier own IP address if they were going to do something like this? Proxies are very easy to use and untraceable.
Think about it.

Wow.

I have had threads that I initiated locked over and over and over again for remarking that script kiddies were "killing baby seals" and ruining the game for newbies and returnees.

Now, I read this whining nonsense, and the Mod just lets it go on, and on and on.

Laff.

I actually do not have a problem with it - its within the compass of the forum rules - but it amuses me that the Moderators selectively enforce
their interpretation of the rules.

I've been thinking about this. From what I understand someone supposedly log in using the name tweety, took assets from his corpies, and cby'd in a game on Helix's server. Now I ask, what would be the motive for this? What harm could someone have expected to do? Helix could easily delete the account and tedit the assets back. It's not like he doesn't know how to use tedit. He's proven that many times in the past in active games. So who has more motive? Someone doing something like that which would prove to be of no long term damage, OR Helix fabricating the whole thing to discredit my reputation? I would think it would be obvious to most what the truth is.

Well Mob evidently believes Helix's lies because I'm receiving a 48 hour ban. I'll probably be leaving Tradewars at this point. Good luck to most, and to the others, well you know what you can do.

Probably because I make the rules, I can interpret them.
Pretty cool, eh?

Edited to add: Someone defending themselves against an attack of character is something even you would endorse Kav. Are you still sore that I locked the thread where you were accused of calling another mod "Hitler"? So far there haven't been any personal attacks, so what's the problem?

Why not just post the actual log file. While not 100% positive I think it may provide the insight y'all seek.

Agreed, Kav. No doubt about that.

Kaus, I did post the whole TWGS Log its zipped up. I copied it from the TWGS before zipping it up but the creation date should match the start dates and have the all of the suspect ip addresses in there. I have the log set to append.

Actually I don't think anyone attacked Big D's character, though he did quite a bit of attacking himself.
Tweety asked who did this, D started screaming (metaphorically) not me!, not me!. And here we are, res ipsa loquitur. I will be happy to give a neutral party temporary access to my server machine and the twgs if it will help sort this out.

Also, someone is trying to hack my acct here:

Helix... I sincerely hope you edited that link before you posted it. I reported it to the mods to save your butt, and then it occurred to me that I could use it and then give your account back to you. But it appears that someone has already used it.

Edit: OIC, there's a password involved. That's good.

I changed my password after I received the first one. That link probably explains 22 admin messages from ClassicTW earlier. I have changed the link now. Thanks for pointing it out.

I defended Tweety, check my post on page 1 of this thread:

"Ignore them bro. I have known you since the late 90's as have many others here. None of us would believe that you had done anything like that for a moment. "Noli permittere illegitimi carborundum".

Kav."

As to the Hitler accusation, we had a PM exchange mid December about it when you agreed by implication that I had not done what a third party accused me of and offered to reopen a locked thread that I might defend myself. I thanked you and said to just let it rest. I'll not let it rest this time however. I still have the PM's (on a local HD, as of now) and can email you the exchange, you have my permission to post them publicly.

Suggest search for a post of mine that mentions "Hitler". There are none.

EDIT: Except in the context of this accusation.
