>>>Hello all,

>>>I feel that a serious miscarriage of justice was committed
>>yesterday
>>>(Thursday, December 24, 2009) on the Zone.  I had written some
>>innocuous
>>>(harmless) code in C (which I will reprint below), and this
>>prompted an
>>>investigation by Doug V, who came to the conclusion that, in his
>>words, I
>>>had been "suggesting ways . . .  to hack [another user]'s
>>account." The code
>>>I had written has nothing whatsoever to do with hacking.  Doug
>>subsequently
>>>banned me for two weeks for my (apparent) wrongdoing.  I appealed
>>the
>>>decision to the administration, and have yet to get a response.
>>Another user
>>>was banned about thirty minutes before me on the same count.
>>Here is the
>>>code, more or less.  Tell me, people: Is this, or is this not,
>>considered
>>>"hacking another user's account?" My opinion is that it is not.

>>>---Start of Code---

>>>int main(int argc, char **argv[]){
>>>for (int i=1; i<=(sizeof(byte)*sizeof(ulong64)*209); i++)
>>>malloc((i*sizeof(ulong64)+sizeof(int64)*512));
>>>}

>>>---End of Code---

>>>This is simply a block of memory-allocation code (which, btw,
>>won't work
>>>because malloc needs a variable to store its result in), which I
>>directed at
>>>the user whose account Doug said I was suggesting ways to hack.
>>Honestly, I
>>>feel that our CL's, before banning people, need to know *what*
>>exactly they
>>>are dealing with (be it computer programming, speaking foreign
>>languages,
>>>etc), and they need to do a thorough investigation to figure out
>>exactly
>>>what harm, or lack thereof, could come from the questionable
>>content posted
>>>in quicknotes or other media.
>>>Do you think that Doug was right in banning me for this? Why or
>>why not?

>>>Thanks for your attention.
>>>Tyler (a.k.a.  twkav on the Zone)
