A warning about Psycho-nutz
« on: February 16, 2013, 02:37:10 PM »
The psycho-nuts ( AKA psychonaut )  web site is NOT safe . It has been VERY badly set up by a group of total dickheads . Anyone who knows how to can view other peoples PMs and that can very easily cause this site major problems .

This comunity and others like it need protecting for the sake of the site and the users .

Please spread that fact around and for fucks sake avoid that site like the fuckin pest .

The PMs on that site are still visible after the person that recieved and sent them has deleted them .

I`ve read the PMs of several members there ........ good fun reading them .......... there are some emabrasing and dangerous things there . .......... amazing how stupid some people there are ..... and what they say about themselves and others ....... things that could lead to direct problems for  the sender and reciever .

Let's hope not alot of people know.

Perhaps you could inform the administration team there. That site does hold some good info.

The person that pointed it out to me told me that he has sent the owner a message . I dont know what has happened though . All i know is that i deleted all my PMs and i think that others should do the same . Hopefully they fix it quick and hopefully there arent any other holes in the security there

While we are on the subject  ....... i havent had a look lately but i hope the security here on this site has been improved since the last few times i had a good look around . I was quite suprised at how bad it was and at how much i could see when i had a poke around with the " privilidges " i have ........ especialy because there are so many computer " experts " here .

Vesp HAS configured this site to his "privileges ".

On another matter, your archive at 4Shared is a MESS, after downloading it and proceeded to inspect it. Too large, unnecessary programs, etc, etc. I would suggest to re-edit it.

1 - If you think that that archive is crap say exactly whats crap about it . BUT after seeing the amateur state of your unfinished and broken x-files that are scatered around the net you are not realy a credible critic . What you just did was an uncontroled emotional response to me pointing out the problems the x-files have .

2 - You just did something unforgivable = you publicly acused me of something illegal that could cause me very mutch trouble = makeing and uploading that archive .  Where i come from people who do things like that are called snitches , informers or grassers . I did not make that archive . I did not upload that archive .

3 - I am not an informer or snitch or a grasser ..... thats why i didnt explain what i said here publicly that you quoted  . What i said i said diplomaticly . If Vesp or Sedit wants to know what i meant they can PM me .

Its more than terrible being publicly acused of doing something illegal that i havent done especialy by someone whith the past reputation that wizard x had and especialy as he is a mod here . The worst type of informer is a person who publicly makes false statements about others . Does anyone in this scene want to be part of a site where an obviously mentaly confused and vain old  man publicly makes false acusations that others have done illegal things ?


If anyone reads other posts on this forum they would see that a well respected member here and on other similar sites has writen that he made part of that ark . If anyone with a brain UTFSE they would see that all the parts of that ark have been made by other people and posted on torrent websites . I dont even know how to make a torrent .

I did not make that ark . I did not copy any of the web sites on it or other parts of it . And i did not upload it  .

I meant that this back and forth stuff is really terrible, and isn't a discussion that should be in 'public' , and in my opinion shouldn't be happening at all, regardless of the truth behind those statements made.

What do people expect me to do ? Sit here and not say anything when a maniac informer repetedly acuses me of doing illegal things that i havent done in public ? Think about  what you would say and do . Think about how you would feel . Think about what could happen to me and how much it would cost me to defend myself from his false acusations . I would be in debt for the rest of my life .

The guy is so sick he doesnt care about the effects that his denunciation has on his reputation and on this site .

Everyone just needs to relax. They can see both sides of the story and you guys can argue in PM or whatever

I shared the same opinion as %1 and dream0n. I felt this should have been in PM, but now I realize that WizardX was also providing information about the archive because it is public somewhere, and has harmful software/files on it that would potentially harm the computers of those who would be interested in such material. 

I also understand TLS/R perspective as well. I am not sure what to do - I can see his point of wanting this information removed, but I see why it can be valuable to share the information WizardX uncovered.

There are sites that check files for potential malware that do about 30 checks with different companys virus scanners . Someone could check that ark with one of those sites if they care about it . A lot of malware scanners are not reliable and produce false positives . Doing a check with one of those sites would clear up if there is dangerous software in that file .

I`m sorry but as far as i`m concerned its obvious that he is still bearing a grudge against me because i discovered that his x-files were broken . I told him per PM in private about it . Then it got mentioned in the youtopia ark thread and he attacked me . I then proved what i said .

If you take a look at the wording of his posts in this thread you will see that what he said doesnt fit together . He attacked me and then when i pointed it out he started talking shit . When i pointed out what he had done he did it again more than once .

What he said about other dangerous files is idiotic . If the types of files that he is talking about are dangerous then the whole of the fucking internet is just as dangerous and so are a lot of the files on this site and the files that are linked to here on other sites for instance PDFs and djvu and the files that he has linked to .

All i see is a vain old man that cant admit that he has talked shit and is now trying to retreat forwards and throw shit at me and at that ark .

I said what i said about this site and if you want i will explain that to you per PM . He doesnt know what i mean and flipped out and histericly attacked me . Look at the red print and the capital letters .

The best thing to do would to delete all the posts under the ones about the problems that are still hapening on psychonaut and to delete the youtopia ark thread .

And to tell him to get off my back and leave me alone . I have done nothing wrong or bad on this site and i have helped everyone i could when i could .

If i`ve done anything wrong on this site or to anyone on this site tell me ...... and that goes for everyone else to .

If there is a reason to warn people about that ark then it would be good to let people know and if that is so i will open a thread and say it . I dont need some mentaly confused vain old never wasbeen and never willbee shiting in my face or trying to push me around .

IF there was a problem he started it and he could have PMd me . That ark had nothing to do with this thread and he could if he had wanted to say what he said in the youtopia ark thread .

As he made statements in public about me and told the world that i am a criminal i got in touch with all the places i know on the net that mention that ark and have asked for all the files and the mentions to be deleted .

If he has any decency he will do the same with his x-files that could also be potentialy dangerous because of the file it is distributed in and the files in it ...... or are only the files in that ark potentialy dangerous ?

This whole thing is idiotic and he carrys 100 % of the blame for it . All i have done is to rightly try to defend myself from his attacks .


That ark was made a long time ago and i know of at least two updates that are on other sites on the net that do not contain any dangerous files . It would be realy shit if that ark got slagged off around the net just because of him and one maybe potentialy dangerous file on an out of date early beta version  ...... that IF it is dangerous would only be dangerous for people who didnt have any anti malware protection on there computers . Its fucking strange that after the time its been around for he is the only one that is moaning about it . The newer versions of that ark and the team that made it dont deserve to be shot at or degraded just because an old man has a twisted ego and a grudge against me . At least the newer versions of that ark are a service and an aset to the whole scene that as far as i know have taken at least 4 years of hard work by that team to make .

I also think that it would be fair to this site , the members , him and me if the decision to delete anything was done tomorow so that he and the members have a chance to openly say what they think here  .

Lone Stranger,

This has nothing to do with my X-Files as the matter WAS settled in this post...

The program opened the files perfectly ..... thanks .  Wich proves it wasnt our fault , a rootkit or our systems . As microcrap orifice and all the other programs we tried wouldnt deal with it it shows that its the doc files themselves. I would think that they were made with a program that doesnt work optimaly .

I just downloaded my X-Files and the issue is NOT the document files. It seems W2K, XP, Vista, W7 Wordpads have an issue reading the bold MS Sans Serif font.

Best I can recall, I used either Windows ME Wordpad, or MS Office 97 to write those document files.

Even AbiWord Portable from http://portableapps.com/apps/office/abiword_portable can read those 2 document files okay.

In conclusion: MS Wordpad and MS Office have a glitch reading BOLD MS Sans Serif font.

The X-Files have none of the .exe, .jar, .js, OR any other scripting files. I was even hesitant in adding Excel (.xls) files.

If my comment...

On another matter, your archive at 4Shared is a MESS, after downloading it and proceeded to inspect it. Too large, unnecessary programs, etc, etc. I would suggest to re-edit it.

...was see as an attack on you - well you have a axe to grind and were looking for an opportunity to start.

As for the rest of your ranting posts, please stop now and be civilised.  ;D

" please stop now "

First i will check whats in this thread with all the original copys i made of all the posts in this thread and the archive thread wich i made straight after each of the posts in the two threads were made to see if i have made a mistake . IF i have i will publicly apologise to you . If i havent i wont apologise and i will say so in this thread .

Whatever happens ....... after this matter is settled i wont carry on defending myself .

IF you have made a mistake i will say so and then i want a public apology from you and that you stop attacking me now .

Whatever happens ....... when this matter is settled and in the future dont attack me again .

IF you had replyed to my PMs in the other thread there would have been a very good chance that this regretable episode would not have happened .



The same goes for the other mod that had a go at me to . Leave me alone and get on with your own life .
