[QUOTE="der_kluge, post: 2091497, member: 945"] I ran a BBS in college. And the software I used would allow people to log in via user number, rather than their name if they wanted to. Most people signed in with their number. I also gave most of the regulars admin privileges, which would allow them to create new forums. So, while on vacation, I came back and found something like 200 new forums, when we normally had like a dozen or so. So, to get back at all of them, I changed their handles. When they signed in, it would say something like: : 72 Are you die_kluge? Y/N : And then you'd hit yes, and you'd be logged in. Assuming your password was right of course. So, I changed their names to things like: A blithering idiot A complete doofus A real butthead So, it would say: Are you A blithering idiot? Y/N And of course, you had to answer yes to get into the system! [/QUOTE]
