So ... what do we do about this sort of thing?

I decided to log into my MySpace just now (figured I should reply to a message from a friend from last week) and found I had two new messages!

One from everybody's great buddy Tom telling me my friends hadn't been deleted (he was, a looooong time ago. I'm not your friend Tom! mwahahahaha)

Anyhoo, the other message, I won't say who it was from, but it is HMW related.

Some silly little person on MySpace wrote:hey if your not using your heavy metal war account could you give it to me?


Honestly, me not using my HMW account? :lol:

Obviously considering it was done through MySpace and NOT on Seibertron.com there's very little the Mods can do (except watch and make sure I don't suddenly become uber-nice, then they'll know it's someone else on my account) except give a friendly reminder about the rules.

And that includes giving out your password! You know who you are out there! *points my finger at you*

Not useing your account? Is it a joke or does the person not really know who you are? :???:

Actually as it's related to HMW then the mods should be able to raise the possibility of some kind of action, however I suspect you'd need to conclusively prove that that person's myspace account relates directly to a HMW account and that 'their myspace wasn't hacked' or 'it wasn't a joke' which kinda makes it more effort than worth.

I believe myspace would be prepared to do something (probably only a harsh email tho) as the mail was sent thru them and effectively requesting account details for personal gain.

:-? *puts on deerstalker and starts looking for clues as to the cluprit*

This is one of the reasons why I refuse to be a member of MySpace.

I just ignore any that I get and PM their names to Mkall.

Its interesting that HMW is becoming big enough now that people would want to buy accounts on it, and even ask off site.
This game must be really taking off or they must be really stupid hackers.

eh, at this stage I don't really care. I mean let's be serious, for starters we're getting reset soon, secondly, this account comes with suspensions and warnings, hello! Tainted goods! :P

Unfortunately there may be someone gullible enough to actually go along with it, despite Mkall's warning last week.

So I get the account and the house, and the car. When should I post these underwear to you?

I honestly had more faith in you. But that sounds like fun too.

Hmmm... You know Hasbro should have done a Chicken/Mammoth Fuzor in the Beast Wars line - there would have been so many great tar pit jokes to write into the techspec.
