Opinion:

I don't think any of this is funny in the slightest, whether or not this person is guilty, and I think it says volumes about a person who does find it funny.

Moreover, I've read the documents, read this individual's blog, and am far from convinced that she is guilty. Not being in on all this, maybe it is as obvious as people are saying - but the case hasn't been made, as far as I'm concerned. I'm more likely to be swayed by the fact that IP addresses can be faked.

If this person isn't guilty, what is being done to her is a far graver crime than any opinions put on a PDF. I understand that people would be anxious to find out who it is, and have no particular ax to grind just because the signs point to this individual.

But stop and think - what if she isn't the one? Then what have you done to her?

I again will remind you that the person who made this public was Phaylen. I went to her last night and presented all of this to her, and talked to her about it. The IP address spoofing theory is ridiculous, and the IP has been confirmed multiple times.

A sentence in the first document has really scared me... "There ate two kinds of FIC..."

Does that mean the FIC is out to eat us all? Mom, I'm scared


they eat babies. :( it's true.

No they can't. Ignoring things such as proxies, we're discussing taking someone's specific address and then masquerading as it. That cannot be done unless the machine was compromised, which is unlikely. Think of it this way: Communication between two points requires more than just shouting in one direction (usually).

In this case, working with a webmail site to send mail means traffic needs to be passed back and forth in order to work (quite a few times, actually -- there's a whole acknowledgement to initiate a connection). There are tricky ways that are mathmatically improbable to try and sequence your forged traffic so it looks like you're constantly replying while the responses the other person is sending to the victim go ignore because the victim's machine has no idea to respond to it. This is so hard that you shouldn't even consider it is being done over something like this -- I've never actually seen this type of hijack done in the wild.

Now other types of email, it's possible to (sometimes) forge the email header, but that usually leaves mistakes all over it that flag it as faked. In this case, the webmail provider handles the entire thing leaving no chance for this to be done.

So they had the IP and they got an exact match later. Unless you believe Cristiano and others are outright lying about what was in the header, then there really isn't any other conclusion to be reached -- they came from the same machine. Keep in mind, that email and its headers have been forwarded around. If someone was lying, it'd have been exposed by now.

No case is necessary. Everybody can decide for themselves. The IP of the perp was obtained from the e-mail. The suspects were narrowed down to a few people, and one of those suspects had the same IP as the e-mail,

-Maybe the dynamic IP system shuffled the IP address from the perp to the innocent accused just before they were busted. Hey stranger things have happened.

-Maybe somebody else obtained her IP address and then spoofed it in hopes of framing her!

-Or maybe the person sending the e-mail under that IP address, and the suspect going to cristiano's website are the same person.

I'm going with Occam's Razor on this one, but everybody can decide for themselves.

Actually so far, none of it has been proven - we've just been told "it is true".

I'm still trying to find out the motive for whatever and whoever it truly is. That's what's more puzzling.

i just read this pdf. Its disgusting. Its one thing to make claims about FiC (whether i believe it or not doesnt matter in the slightest). But these vitrolic and extremely cruel personal attacks have no place in this "article". Any good journalist knows you can make a point without getting personal.

what the hell?! "over-weight pigtailed... quirky personality which all plump girls develop to compensate for their lack of appearance" I really have no words to ... Im shocked! I don't know Aimee but no one deserves hearing things like this! It sure seems like the person who wrote this has a hardon for Aimee because in the second pdf it even gets worse. Im not even going to quote those because its downright disgusting.

"...whines incessantly, and this combined with high-pitched overtly feminized vocal tones..." Oh yeah, this was necessary!

Not only that we go on to rip on an sl member who comes here to enjoy the sexual aspects because "she's... contracted so many STD's that the only place she can get off is a virtual world." *shakes her head*


I really feel sorry for the writer. They OBVIOUSLY have issues. HUGE issues.

And Im sorry for the people mentioned in the articles. Im sorry they have to deal with such disgusting personal attacks. Its funny they call the "FiC" attention seekers when thats obviously all these articles are for.

I've seen the headers and I've seen the logs, Lewis. But yeah, I guess Metaverse Messenger is in the habit of framing other people by changing email headers before forwarding stuff onwards and Cristiano is a liar about what he pulls out of his access logs. Hell, I'm a liar, too.

This still doesn't change the fact that if everyone is telling the truth on those two items, that IP masquerading DID NOT occur.
