Title: A fake ParlorBot?
Post by: JonJon on April 14, 2004, 08:05:34 AM
I just noticed a user on FIBS named ParIorBot ...but when displayed there, it looks like ParlorBot...

Here, I asked repbot about the user and did a whois

You tell RepBot: ask ParIorBot
RepBot says: User ParIorBot has no complainers or vouchers (1 saved game)

Information about ParIorBot:
 Last login:  Wednesday, April 14 06:53 UTC from ns1.livepenguin.com
 Last logout: Wednesday, April 14 06:55 UTC
 Still logged in. 2:14 minutes idle.
 ParIorBot is not ready to play, not watching, not playing.
 Rating: 1500.00 Experience: 0
 No email address.

Whats up with that? Someone is trying to pull a fast one I think...

I know user bladerunner has two names - Bladerunner and BIaderunner - which appear the same on the playerlist - but i dont think i can pin this one on him - that dont look like his address!!  So someone must have stolen his idea!! :)

No worries people...!
I did some background checking and itr seems it is Rod, the creator of Parlorbot and Parlorplay.
If anyone has a right to that name it's him :)

Was invited, and dropped directly after accepting, by a player called ParTorbot or ParIorbot. Called me a fagg in shout and some more. Whoever it was or whatever he does for fibs, or parlorplay... I don't think he has good standards:)

cheers  ;)

Last time I checked, ParIorBot had at least one complaint.
I've only encountered ParIorBot once, and that was when he was being an offensive git in shout.

The pariorbot account has been removed, i suspect that montecario is the same person, a quick check confirmed it is coming in through livepenguin.com - which is parlorplay  :angry:
