Dear Ireland - Passwords are secret for a reason

Day 1,050, 09:00 • Published in Ireland Ireland

• by Banc Ceannais

Ireland - you really should be more careful.

We will take pity on you today, because we are already taking Dublin from you.

In return for Dublin, I will report the traitor who gave me the password. I cannot post anything here, because I don't want forfeit points for posting private conversations.

We also tried to get into contact with some of your high-ranking officials on the IRC - unfortunately, you banned us from #Ireland so I couldn't. Maybe unbans are in order?

Good luck in Dublin,

Your friends,

Maddog Jones and Tomazim - as well as all the friendly folks at Operation DIE.

(Shout out to Jan Baykara).

THIS REALLY WAS VERY IRRESPONSIBLE OF YOU IRELAND.

In all seriousness, traitors are bad, I am trying to get hold of any high-ranking Irishmen - you need to change your password!

Mr Ginge Day 1,050, 09:30

God Damn... incompetent idiots.

Thanks guys for not doing as much damamge as you could, much appreciated. We can't even blame the Brits for this, we have to blame the imcompetent nob ends who claim tto run this country.

-.-

sigh

Commius Day 1,050, 10:13

EFTS were the only ones who had access to the banc.

Rawdon Day 1,050, 10:14

\o/

Sean Power Day 1,050, 10:22

Commius this party fingerpointing cr@p is annoying... This is about individuals who get off on doing this sh1t

Commius Day 1,050, 10:25

Then tell me a list of people who had access?

Bristel Akina Day 1,050, 10:27

Kavrocks, Gonzo, Moo and Nogin had access for sure... that means EFTS members...

Sean Power Day 1,050, 10:29

Who gives a sh1t if it was EFTS members or Labour Members or EA members.

A traitor is a traitor to his party as well as his country.

Nephworks Day 1,050, 10:31

Why did some many people have access 🙁 2 is the maximum we should really need. This is why we need to go back to a simpler government with complete transparency.

amal3k Day 1,050, 10:39

Got to give to the Brits on this one.

Guys, internal matters are best kept on internal forums, not this article's comments. Whine in private.

moomoohead Day 1,050, 10:49

OK, I changed the password on the banc, but all the funds are gone. Talked to maddog and he gave me the sorce of information. He did not take anything and was just used to deflect attention from the theif. I am passing all info to DT and Connell and they can sort out who did what and put in tickets. Waite till the facts are out before jumping to conclutions.

Glenn Wauters Day 1,050, 10:52

I hate to say, but i agree with Maddog on this one

Sean MacDiarmata Day 1,050, 10:57

John Gormley Day 1,050, 11:05

I don't think they should have been banned from #Ireland in the first place, so an unbanning is definitely in order.
It's silly to blame EFTS, not their fault there's a traitor in our midst.
Thanks Madman and Peeping Tom for bringing this to our attention.

Maddog is a butt

Octavius Dryst Day 1,050, 12:57

terrific

King Connell Day 1,050, 13:06

Chillax everyone! Especially with the suppositions. This is something which negatively effects pretty much all who care about the country. Finger pointing will indeed get us nowhere and lets not jump to any conclusions until all the facts are known.

Gabriel Peddie Day 1,050, 13:11

Could just be that it was a shit password. Unless it was a random set of letters and or numbers that is.

Gav Miller Day 1,050, 13:15

Delicious.

Christian Russo Day 1,050, 13:17

Bloody ridiculous.

In the words of Colm Meaney

"JAYSUS"

maestonomo Day 1,050, 15:39

pitiful!
passwords should be at least 16 characters long and contain some special characters. Only a few people should have them at anyone time. The password should only be available to political party leaders in encrypted for (GnuPGP etc.). Only the leaders of all major political parties should have access to the _key_ to decrypt the password. & why stop there? Why not have 2 passwords. The password(s) should be changed when a new party comes to power.

Solaris Templar Day 1,050, 16:54

I don't believe this shit really...

gonzo914 Day 1,050, 19:23

I never had access to Banc C. Never got the password.

Kliment E. Voroshilov Day 1,051, 04:12

Dont voted...

Mr Ginge Day 1,051, 12:03

Sean Power is mentally ill... do not heed his words.

Sean Power Day 1,051, 12:46

poor Mr Ginge.... falling victim to amnesia like that... or is it a "copy & paste" virus?

seanlynch Day 1,052, 05:02

Let a fello Sean alone Ginge, please. As for this EFTS nonse, get a life to everone who mentioned it! Also, you guys are mean, taking the banc! It's been done before, do something original!

Grainne Ni Mhaille Day 1,052, 08:16

Somewhere, in a parallel universe, there exists a race of opponents whom are creative, and try new devious things, special strategies, cunning ones, that have not been seen before, in use as pseudo-battle tools.
Sadly, that's not here.
Ah well....
*shrugs....wanders off*

Oh yeah? @ you two brit-lads? Get a room, will ya? Your loved-up duo of trixiness is making me feel a little nauseous these days...
bloeh bloeh bloeh.

Sean MacDiarmata Day 1,052, 08:47
