Mods, Vets Please Read ASAP

EF wouldn't need to cooperate would they? Can't your work see where you surf? Especially if they run a proxy?
 
yes...it was posted at IT as well.....here's the full post as spidey wrote it on IT....kinda odd if you ask me.....

"Well, my best friend just got a call from the local police. They traced his IP to his work and wanted to know why he spent some time on the anabolic board at EF.

Wouldn't EF have to cooperate in order for them to get that info? He is really spooked now and is cleaning house. He told them he was looking into natural health supplements but they didn't buy his explanation. They asked "if that's true then why were you on the anabolic steroid forum?"

I work at the same place and I spent way more time on the EF anabolic board than he did so I am just waiting for them to call me. I wonder if they have access to all the posts. Both he and I admitted to steroid use and discussed it on the anabolic board along with everyone else. I wonder if those posts could be used to get a search warrant. This really sucks because I just started my winter bulker. I don't want to have to clean house.

Does the administration here at IT keep a backup of the vet and mod forum? Just a thought but that is what is biting people in the ass from EF. Those backups are ending up in the fed's hands it looks like. I was just getting over my paranoia from EF, LOL. I guess it really isn't all that bright to be admitting to illegal behavior on an on-line forum. I had said I wasn't going to do that anymore but then I went ahead and did it anyway on this and other boards. I think I will not do that anymore."
 
yeah.. I don't really understand how some guys have the cojones to post pics of their faces and admit they use steroids on public forums.. you guys are HC

with 62,000+ registered members here.. who WOULDN'T expect there to be an investigation at some time?
 
this might piss some people off, but im gonna say it anyway. I heard this board got taken over by the feds.

I am not trying to start rumors but this is what i heard..
 
My first thought was that maybe his work viewed some of the posts he was making and reading up on and got ticked he was "stealing work time" to support his "drug habit" and maybe let the authorities know about it.
I dont see Admins here being responsible, they must make some good money with plat members, why jeapordize it?

Taken over by the feds eh? So, all the moderators of this site are feds? Interesting. That would have had to be planned well in advance since AAP, Radar and genarr3 have been on this board for years. :rolleyes:
 
Is he sure it is the Police (i.e. did he get a number and check?) it has all the makings of a practical joke by one of his friends to spook him IMHO.

Get him to check it our first as i would bet that someon is having a real laugh at his expense!

Wrongun!
 
No, the feds are just standing behind your computer chairs telling you what to write, lol.

That sounds like something another board would say to try to pry away users from a more popular board.

That'd be totally wrong (un) HAHAHA!!!
I wouldn't take a joke like that very lightly:mad:

Exactly. I don't buy the phone call from the police one bit.
 
If this story is true at all... I would imagine, and expect EF to require a warrant before they would divulge an IP...

If the police did contact someone and they had a warrant, they had much more than 'someone spending time on a Anabolic Forum'... you don't get a warrant for that. That being said, if they have something else then they are just using his time on EF as more circumstancal evidence...

Even at that... if the guy has a email addy associated with his EF id, they could have got his information from his ISP, and not EF.

Who knows, it just sounds too fishy. Police have too much to do to be calling everyone that posts on EF without some real evidence to back it up...
 
this is horseshit, plain and simple... these bs internet rumors travel so easily... generally due to the fact that there are so many people online w/ nothing to do but manifest such stories. Yeah i've been a fed that just wasted 3 yrs of my life posting here so that i could one day become a mod and rape/pilllage the board. PS, mods still get power checked by the almighty gs...
 
This whole story sounds a bit off...

I’m not trying to discredit this person’s story but here are some questions that rise from reading this:

1- In order for law enforcement to track IPs they would have to hack our site since we don’t give them.

2- If there are several work stations at this job, which it sound like from the post… how could the IP be traced to one person out of all the possible machines on the same server and IP.

3- The tittle says “my friend got a call from the police” the police is a local entity, in order for the police in this person’s city to get his IP they would have to get a court order in NYC to be able to hack into our site and steal his/her IP logs…. That just doesn’t seem likely. It takes a lot for the local Police to get a court order in a different state, especially for what could be a minor possession charge.

4- If indeed my co-worker got a call from the police and he was questioned about his online “activities” why on earth would I make a post saying “I work at the same place too, and I have admitted to steroid use” it just doesn’t make any sense… If law enforcement is looking into somebody for posting on a Steroid message board, why would I post and admit to doing the same thing my co-worker is getting investigated for? SPECIALY with the SAME handle that I used on the board that is suppose to be compromised…. Someone with something to worry about wouldn’t be so careless and leave a direct trail to themselves and place of work. This person is either real stupid or knows he doesn’t really have anything to worry about, I’ll let you decide.

LOL

agreed but seems far more logical to me than the big conspiracy theory of site hacking etc

Wrongun!
 
This just looks like another calumnious statement aimed to take a stab at EF. Wasn't Spidey the one who got blasted outta here for his 'Farewell Post' when other mods were dipping?
And whoever said they 'heard' EF is run by the feds is an imbecile - why would you even disperse any kind of unwarranted information? These unfounded claims is what builds rumors, but can't be substantiated in any sort of way, hence irrelevant. Shut the fuck up :o
 
The police are working from home now? Are they too lazy to pay him a visit a t the guys house? When do the police EVER call you?

They asked him why he spends a lot of time on EF. LMFAO!!!
 
sounds very, very false to me. Why his station? There are several members that have pics, post more information than this guy most likely, and frequent several anabolic boards. If I say on AOL instant messanger that I killed Abraham Lincoln, will the Feds track that too and then arrest me for admitting I did it. I don't think so. As stupid as this analogy sounds, it does not compare to this rumor or whatever it may be.

LOL no shit man, he got a call, right. Might as well have said, "oh he is not in right now, can I take a message."
 
We have not been contacted by the police or any other person in law enforcement.

Our policy, which each employee here knows, is that if we are ever contacted by law enforcement, we immediately direct them to Attorney Rick Collins. Globix is our ISP partner and their policy is the same. Inquiries of this nature are immediately directed to their attorney.

And on the only occasion that we have had involvement with the FDA, we hired famed steroid attorney Rick Collins to make sure our members’ information was maintained safe, secure, and confidential.

2. How does the site fund itself (these boards are expensive to run). Do they have a product to sell, or are the funded through illegal activity and could one day get popped?
3. Is there a phone number I can call if I have further questions or concerns (real businesses have real phone numbers)?
4. Is there a Privacy Policy (there should be)?
5 How long has the site been around (We have been around since 1995)?

IMHO, if you do not know the answers to these five simple questions, then you should avoid posting on that site.

They either wanted him to,

#1) have a head start when running for the police.

or

#2) Give him a "warning this time" lol and spend a little less time here.

They have about 59,999 more phones calls to make.
 
My Thanks to the Admin. for even bothering to answer such blatant BS because if you search around on our own legal board you will find out they don't call they walk in with a warrant and nail your Ass. ex-law now business major/did an internship in the prosecutors office and if they found a police officer giving such blatant warnings when/ if ? he had any evidence his ass would have been the DA's
 
GS Thanks a ton for that post!!!! I will be posting that on SM!
 
So what starts this kind of shit? Is it other "inferior" boards trying to compete with Elite, which already dominates the BBing Inet world?:o
 
It is quite common these days for employers to use "keystroke recording" software or similar spyware to keep track of their employee's on line activities while on the clock.
Probably was his own company's security dept. calling. Spidey was a pretty good dude back in the day.
I recently shit canned a secretary for spending half the day at on-line casino's while at work.
 
Being a computer guy and knowing what's involved in such a thing, it smells like bullshit to me.

Good points BRR, logically it just doesn't make sense.

"That's what I heard" - Heard it where? Don't start bullshit rumors unless you're prepared to back them up with facts.

I suppose I'm a Fed too? There are at least a dozen members that have met me personally. I you want I'll list them. But they could be Feds too I guess.

Amen!!
 
Without even getting into the technical aspect of this nonsense story. Why on earth would a cop call someone asking why they were spending time on an internet board? For what purpose?

All I have to say is somebody owes me a whole lot of back pay if I have been a fed all this time. :rolleyes:


:D
 
Elite has had its share if banned members and believe me, we do have people who have a grudge against us wether from banishment or jealously, We are the top dog and intend to stay that way!
ROCK ON!!!!!

Listen, I as i stated I am absolutely not trying to start a rumor. Your right I have no evidence except the person that told me. I love this board and in fact it is the only board i do post on. Do i believe the story at the othe site? No i dont. Do i believe the person that told me the fed story? No i dont either. I sorry for offending the mods here but i just wanted to see if anyone else has heard anything similar. That was my motive of the post and nothing else.

I would think any IT person worth their salt could watch what the people in his company are doing on the net and they do!. Its like when they bust people for porn. COME ON PEOPLE! A little paranoid is cool but shit!

It actually happens to us about once every three to four months and always has since we formed this site in 1996. It does seem like it is getting more frequent though.
 
when you sit on the uppermost branch, they'll try to knock you off.
 
im a pre-law student at the university of cincinnati and they can get your IP adress...its part of the patriot act...the federal goverment has a right to your computer files and you wont even know they hacked into your computer until shit like this happens...just letting everyone know that it is our risk putting anything up here....any fed can register with this post the same way we did so just be carefull and dont ruin this beautiful discussion board the God gave to us (by God i do mean George)
 
those of you who are unfamiliar with this patriot act it gives the United States gov. authority to search and seizure without the individuals consent. it doesnt have to be reasonable either. such searches include being pulled out of line at the airport, unreasonable bag searches, computer hacking, etc....so if you are always connected to the internet then you run the risk of being targeted....anyway how about those yankees and the A-Rod trade...anyone know a good cycle that includes anadrol, sust, winstrol, clomid

Maybe when you are not "pre-law" but get to real law you will see how wrong you are. The government has never needed consent to search - its called a warrant. Warrants issue upon probable cause. There are other circumstances where searches may be conducted, but these are limited. The Patriot Act, while broad, is not the mysterious devil that everyone claims. It does not transform the FBI into the gestapo.
 
just a question about IP address'. at the bottom of everyones post (reads "edit sig" / "Report this post to a mod" / "Ip Logged"
what does that IP Logged link lead to? I'm not plat. but if I click it reads like if I was plat, I would be able to view its contents. so, what are the contents of the link? not my IP address I hope...
 
I think it is a crock. Sounds scripted to me. Can you imagine though the number of real po po's on this board just looking for the same thing as us?

I know, and anyone who knows me from ancient times will know what I am talking about.

I wouldn't worry. If they want us it will not be hard for them to get us, no matter how careful we are. Still, playing it safe never hurts.

And supposedly the servers are offshore outside the US so they are supposed to be inaccesible to the law.

At least that is the story I get.

Everytime you post, your IP adress is logged and can be accessed by mods. That's true for every board/server on the net.
 
juicepimp....what i was implying is that they dont need a warrent due to the patriot act..if you knew what you were talking about you would have noticed it was implyed by the examples i gave..i.e. computer hacking, airport security, etc.....so before you call anyone out on a post as you did me ...please take a look at what the the person is saying...somtimes you have to look deeper into what is being implyed rather than just reading words...anyway what i was trying to get across to everyone is that even though this may be BS there is a slight chance it can happen so just keep it safe....freedom of speech is a beautiful thing we are strickly on this board for knowledge and research
