Darryl and Rob..... An explanation please!

PostTue Mar 10, 2009 10:05 am

I received an email early this morning and this was it's content.

Dear Capt777Emirates, Here is your new login information: Username: Capt777Emirates Password: [removed by forum admin] Thank You! -------------------------------------------------------- contrebombarde.com - http://www.contrebombarde.com/concerthall/

I take offense to being called stupid on Contrabombarde as a new login

This was uncalled for and rather unprofessional don't you think?

May I ask why this has happened and the reason for it???

I would appreciate an answer either here or privately.

Thank you.

Hello Pat,

Very sorry for this. Please be aware that Contrebombarde is a separate site from Hauptwerk and run independantly from Hauptwerk. These issues are not able to be taken care of by us at MDA and should be discussed directly with Classic Organ Works as they are the ones who run that site.

Also these issues would best be sent directly to them via email rather than on the Hauptwerk forum.

I'm sure they will be able to fix whatever problem it is they are having with spammers.

Thank you and I hope they are able to do so.

Hi Pat,

Yesterday we fixed the bug that was preventing you from resetting your password. What I think happened is that you posted your password for ContreBombarde.com publicly on the forum (it was contained in the e-mail you posted), and someone used that to change your password. We obviously have some internet trolls that are out to create misery for our users. You can be assured we're doing everything we can to deal with these issues and create a pleasant online experience for the users of the concert hall.

Hello Pat,

I've edited your two forum posts in which you posted your Contrabombarde username/passwords to try to stop people using them to hack your Contrabombarde account again. In general, if you do have problems with an account/password I'd recommend contacting the administrators of the site in question privately so that the nefarious members of the public don't get hold of your login details.
Best regards, Martin.

Gents:

Thanks again for the information.

I offer apologies for posting the issue here on this site. In my mind, there is such a positive "mental" connection between this forum and Contrabombarde (in such a very good way!!) that I forgot they were separate!!

Sorry Pat,

I'm afraid it was me. I was reading your posting, wich was revealing your login and password so loud and clear that I couldn't resist a little joke. So don't be afraid that some evil guy hacked you in order to harm you. And after all you must admit: it's not very smart to post your login and password on a public forum.

I hope you can appreciate a practical joke and I wish you lots of fun with the contrabombarde website.

Cheers,

Aart

Hello Aart,

Well, I imagine there are better ways to alert a fellow member as to the reasons we use passwords and user-names in the first place. I'm glad you can forward and risked some public shame, personally I felt disheartened by the contents of the Captains post, now we know the source, and that it was ill-advised, but not intentional malice. I've been there myself more than a few times. Give me a mouth, and a foot, and I'm ready to give advice. Again, I'm glad you fessed up.
