Undernet:

Logs of some spoofs done on #wasteland.

(The first one the IRCops were too fucking blind to even see.. it just ended up pinging out..):


-

*** SpEwF (~spoof@1.1.1.1) has joined #wasteland
*** SpEwF has quit IRC (Ping timeout for SpEwF[1.1.1.1])

-


This time it was decided to spoof Pantheon's address.. even fooled Pantheon's butt buddy, ettil:

-

*** Panth (~Panth@206.65.72.101) has joined #wasteland
<ettil> pany !
*** Panth has quit IRC (Ping timeout for Panth[206.65.72.101])

-


Finally the the IRCops finally caught the 3rd one:

-

*** Panth_ (~Panth@1.1.1.1) has joined #Wasteland
<Nick_> hmm
<Panth_> God damn are IRCops ever gay
<Nick_> someone wanna kill that spoof?  panth_
<Panth_> This isn't a spoof
<S> yeah
<S> thats real
<S> nslookup it
<Nick_> lnxland1:~/public_html$ ping 1.1.1.1
<Nick_> PING 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1): 56 data bytes
*** Panth_ (~Panth@1.1.1.1) Quit (Killed (CapVideo (Actually, you need to use better methods.)))
*** S (kands@168.143.0.7) has left #wasteland
<Nick_> S was the owner of panth_.

CapVideo WALLOPS *** Panth_ was ~Panth@1.1.1.1 (Admin) on channel *private*
merrii (princess@pm00402.inlink.com) is now an IRC Operator.
merrii WALLOPS looks like some IP spoofing Cap
CapVideo WALLOPS So I noticed.

#  The IRCops plan to combat such activity by using a '.nospoof' patch.  This patch is supposed
#  to work by sending a PING :random# to the client upon registration on the server you are 
#  connecting to. If it doesn't reply... with PONG :random#... auto-/Kill
