Updates

This is a announcement update of security issues for the General category.

We are issuing a general announcement/warning to our visitors about a former staff and community member. This is a follow-up from a previous announcement we made in November 2006. We are posting this as a reminder to our visitors, and also to inform those that may be new to the Network.

Since that announcement, Kim (Kimberly) has continued to try and re-access the Network by imitating other community members and creating fake accounts. Some of the false names she has used have been: Adie, Aella, Adele, C.Shelly, Desta, Ella, Jaide and Juliet.

As we said in the previous announcement, we get no pleasure in needing to do this. However, Kimberly has continued to use sneaky tactics to try and get around her ban. She has approached several community members and tried to use them, thus we feel we need to warn you. If you find any newer members to the community to be suspicious, please contact us immediately so we can investigate. We will, of course, keep your suspicions between the Senior Staff only so it is essentially a “secret witness” report.

Please do not share your passwords, please make sure that they are secure (use varying numbers, symbols and varying caps) and hard to guess. Change them regularly. And please, if you are approached by anyone asking for your password information, or for unusual favors regarding the network, please contact the senior staff immediately.

If you have any concerns or questions regarding this announcement, please e-mail the senior staff, or any individual member of the senior staff :)
