[efq]

Bit silly for Sulake to take it that far, fair enough but im sure he didn't do that much damage.

[Jord]

What did he do?

[PaulMacC]

Your kidding, right?
He basically exploited habbo using alot of programs and stuff.

[Clowgon]

Just phoned that number. That PC talks well gay. :P

[DaveTaylor]

They are claiming his program edited there habbo servers, which is obviously wrong, so ye, section 3 is about unauthorized change to media/information

[cocaine]

the police arrested him, not sulake :P

[Immenseman]

lol crazy

[Jord]

Your kidding, right?
He basically exploited habbo using alot of programs and stuff.


...

Im asking what he did, did he give himself 500T did he hack mods habbos what

[brandon]

Habbo is a matter of life and death, he had it coming.

[stickwitu]

it seems quite pathetic but if it were your $$$ potentially at risk i'm pretty sure you'd do everything to protect your business. at least it'll set an example for others.

[James!]

it seems quite pathetic but if it were your $$$ potentially at risk i'm pretty sure you'd do everything to protect your business. at least it'll set an example for others.How would $$ be at risk because of him? lol

[Captain]

I hope the geek goes to jail, then we can all see how hard he is. infact, he might find out how hard some people are.. in the showers

[IceNineKills]

I hope the geek goes to jail, then we can all see how hard he is. infact, he might find out how hard some people are.. in the showers

he wont get jail for that offence.

[Jack.Lfc]

I imagine he will just get a fine.

[kk.]

he wont get jail for that offence.

he could, im not sure but i quickly googled CMA and i read 5 years maximum or something.

and good, serves him right. hackers should know better


A person guilty of an offence under this section shall be liable—
(a)on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum or to both; and
(b)on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years or to a fine or to both.

[Bun]

he'll probs just get a daft fine, unless sulake want to be picky and go for damages :rolleyes:.

[Nli.]

Depends what he did I

[Barmi]

They are claiming his program edited there habbo servers, which is obviously wrong, so ye, section 3 is about unauthorized change to media/information
These comments are not against you Dave, they are general points.

Sulake can't arrest Jeax, nor can they impose a criminal sentence upon him. Semantics matter. And the exact offence is "unauthorised modification of the contents of any computer" (s.3(1)(a)) combined with the mens rea in s.3(1)(b). What classes as modification is addressed in s.3(2). Mens rea elements addressed in s.3(4) and s.3(5) are not really disputable.

I have nothing against Jeax in particular, and maybe Sulake are being heavy handed by requesting an action brought against him... but it's understandable on their part. You could then assume (if you are cynical) that Sulake wanted threads like this to be made, if we guess the reason by the action. Are you playing into their hands? ;)

Dan: it's a criminal case, numpty. Sulake can't ask for damages in an action they are not bringing.


(1) A person is guilty of an offence if—

(a) he does any act which causes an unauthorised modification of the contents of any computer; and
(b) at the time when he does the act he has the requisite intent and the requisite knowledge.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1)(b) above the requisite intent is an intent to cause a modification of the contents of any computer and by so doing—

(a) to impair the operation of any computer;
(b) to prevent or hinder access to any program or data held in any computer; or
(c) to impair the operation of any such program or the reliability of any such data.
(3) The intent need not be directed at—

(a) any particular computer;
(b) any particular program or data or a program or data of any particular kind; or
(c) any particular modification or a modification of any particular kind.
(4) For the purposes of subsection (1)(b) above the requisite knowledge is knowledge that any modification he intends to cause is unauthorised.

(5) It is immaterial for the purposes of this section whether an unauthorised modification or any intended effect of it of a kind mentioned in subsection (2) above is, or is intended to be, permanent or merely temporary.

(6) For the purposes of the M2Criminal Damage Act 1971 a modification of the contents of a computer shall not be regarded as damaging any computer or computer storage medium unless its effect on that computer or computer storage medium impairs its physical condition.

(7) A person guilty of an offence under this section shall be liable—

(a) on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum or to both; and
(b) on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years or to a fine or to both.

[Moh]

You can actually get a longer sentence for hacking than for murder :P

[e5]

He seemed a bit shakey upon the taken the photo, maybe he should have calmed down first :P


Habbo is a matter of life and death, he had it coming.
I know, and life is still a lenghty jail sentence ;):P

[Barmi]

You can actually get a longer sentence for hacking than for murder :P
Not under the Computer Misuse Act 1990 (as amended) you can't. Murder uses the life sentence tariff system. The maximum available under the CMA is 5 years and a fine.

[Virgin Mary]

Good he should be jailed for being a geek I mean doesn't it have anything better to do than sit around hacking some online game?

[Titch]

What site did he post this on?

[Sexy]

I knew who he was, but I don't know what he did.

I suppose he'll get quite a large fine but he won't go to jail.

[Jahova]

****, you weren't supposed to tell anyone you fool. This was supposed to be kept quiet while the scripting community worked things out.

[Dusty-09]

Shows how Sulake go far with hackers/scripters or whatever they like to call themselves. He won't go to jail or anything probably a fine. I can't see the pic clearly too blurry.

I actually don't know Jeax but I wonder why hackers; hack.

He doesn't, he scripts or creates programmes and releases them and causes sulake money*+*

[uje]

"I got arrested for taking imaginary online furniture"
He’s going to love prison! LOL

[Immenseman]

but he didn't take furni tho, soz.

[5,5]

Im sure they have more important things to do than get the police on people that just change stuff for fun

[rnix]

How is this Worlds News, Politics, Religion & Philosophy??

Should be in the Habbo section? Cause its hardly Worlds News!!!
(http://www.habboxforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1086)

[shizzle]

I saw this earlier today.

[Bun]

Dan: it's a criminal case, numpty. Sulake can't ask for damages in an action they are not bringing.
how do you know they don't bring it? the cps may not fancy it! oh god i'm getting into the wrong fight here :(:(

[Frisky]

In my opinion, it shows a strong message that they dont mess about.

If only they charged more people because there are so many people exploiting Habbo at the moment.

[luce]

what did he actually do? and also how can sulake arrest someone :rolleyes:

[Jordan:A]

the police arrested him, not sulake :P
LOL
I think he meant they told off him/prosecuted him >.>

[Barmi]

how do you know they don't bring it? :(:(
Okay, so it's possible that they initiated the action, especially given that the case involves a young person... but unlikely. I'm not too hot on procedural stuff, other than what Sue said. I don't fancy taking it as a module next year either. *Yawn*

To your first point, I totally agree! I made a comment earlier in the thread about this exposure being almost hoped for by Sulake. If this Jeax had not shared this with others, it would have no effect as a deterrent. As it stands, it plays well to strengthen Sulake's stance on the matter.

To your second point: it is unnecessary. By pursuing one or two more high-profile ventures and hoping that word is spread, they have the bonus of a very effective deterrent.

[Zak]

that jeax guy is really cool

that so counts as me winning :D!

[Kightly]

this is really stupid and sick! all that poor guy did was scripting and trying to have fun (and annoy us abit), but sulake call the fbi on him knock his door down and beat him up, put him in jail to get raped? all becuz of his scripting? really sick sulake!

[Blinger1]

Nobody said he will get raped (well maybe they did..) and put yourself in Sulakes shoes.. A kid scripts/hacks, takes over a few habbos.. The habbo thinks "oh ****, i lost it all, i will quit now" Sulake lose $$$...

Or, sue the people who makes Sulake lose money, which in the long run will most likely bring in more dollars..



YOUR CHOICE, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

But Sulake are not suing him.

[Blinger1]

But Sulake are not suing him.
fine then.. ARREST THE PERSON.. which will hopefully have a waterfall effect on the other scripters.

[DaveTaylor]

****, you weren't supposed to tell anyone you fool. This was supposed to be kept quiet while the scripting community worked things out.

Oh yes the secretive organization of the scripting community, if you have forgotten I helped Mike set it up years back so shut your ******* mouth.

[Blinger1]

I have nothing against you Dave.. probably more respect you but..

I don't think you and mike solely set the scripting community up?

Also, what was your habbo name? i might have some rooms of yours...

[Soy]

He'l have the last laugh, every person who used Axed 7.0 got there username and password sent to a remote server.

So If he kept all those accounts details just think, the furni will surely cover the fine

[DaveTaylor]

Me and Mike started SOM back 03/04, it seems to be the "sole" of scripting now adays so that's where my answer came from. I see your point however. And I had several.

[le harry]

didnt he just create some stupid bots with blue hats :S:S::S

[Soy]

didnt he just create some stupid bots with blue hats :S:S::S
Hehe yeah and the ones with bags on there heads

[Immenseman]

traumatic time in his life

[Virgin Mary]

I hope he gets put in a cell with a murder rapist and gets raped and murdered for being a freak 2005 n00b scripter wannabe.

[Immenseman]

I hope he gets put in a cell with a murder rapist and gets raped and murdered for being a freak 2005 n00b scripter wannabe.
"hey what are you in for?"
"murdering my two children, you?"
"scripting habbo lol"

[tdi]

lol at posting his address.

how did you get the police form?

[Richie]

Dont bot or scam you might end up in jail :Sign10:

[DaveTaylor]

lol at posting his address.

how did you get the police form?

I am friends with him?

[kuzkasate]

Bit silly for Sulake to take it that far, fair enough but im sure he didn't do that much damage.

On USA there is an extraordinary hacker he hacks everything. He got arrested too.

[Jack.Lfc]

On USA there is an extraordinary hacker he hacks everything. He got arrested too.

I think you mean finch? the one who hacked the mods?

[Casanova]

Or of course the scottish computer techi whom hacked several US government servers including nasa's and pentagons. He's trying to stop action for himself getting extradited to the US and serve his time in the UK, if there's any to serve. (which there will be).

And Sulake are doing this because of all the money it's costing them. You think of their costs, there's their added security, sorting the mess and of course all the updates they bring out to cover their security mistakes.
They want to send a message out to others, or so it seems. They've probably picked this guy for a reason, maybe they know he might be well connected or they know it'll get around?

[TopManTim]

"hey what are you in for?"
"murdering my two children, you?"

[DaveTaylor]

jeax, you are under arrest. you do not have to say anythi... (jeax's thoughts: ****, i gotta tell dave taylor about this!!!).....

Bail papers etc aren't legal NDA documents, so please **** :)

[leah]

Habbo is a matter of life and death, he had it coming.
LOL

HOW DARE HE DO IT TO HABBO!!! :@
im so angry OMG :eusa_wall
lock him up and throw away the key I say!!

[Immenseman]

it's ok leah, i'm here to protect you

[Jahova]

Dave Taylor knows because he told alot of his 'script' friends, also it was posted on a well known scripting site.

[Xorx]

Sulake completely and utterly detested Josh for a long, long time. He inspired many original users to enter into Scripting Communities, such as Otaku-Studios, the home of Private Server Development, SnG and SoM. This inspiration led to trust, and his tools were being used on hotels all over the world. His very own Scripting Tool, Axed, succeeded in a massive breakthrough. This was kbown as the August Raids. The main exploits were Erroring, Furniture Description Editting and BOT features.

This obviously placed Suelake (my bad, Sulake) into a big, stressful situation. They were in positions where they even had to change to a method, which resulted in a Dynamic Encryption. Then, the struggle for the creators of Scripting Tools finally came. When they cracked the encryption and released the tools, a few minutes later and the Encryption had changed. Most gave up, others used most other useless Scripts that weren't patched.

And suddenly, on Thursday 12th February, everything changed. Out of the blue, the feds raided Josh's house. Josh was found on his computer, using a private IRC Network that only himself, Myrax and another unknown user were using. All of the logs were on there, and Dom (Myrax, who is a very close friend) was now also vulnerable to the feds. Dom was told at a local bus station by an officer that the feds were searching for him. Use iMyrax.co.uk or Shoelake.co.uk for more information on Doms situation, and use JeaxArmy.co.uk for more on Josh.

Thanks.

Are those names meant to be significant in any way? And I heavily doubted Sulake "completely and utterly detested Josh for a long, long time". Seriously, a successful business will hardly have had top-level meetings over someone who will only be known by a few members within Sulake... and even then moreso as someone they want to make an example of, as opposed to someone who causes them great threat.

Inspiration and trust? Loaded language, much? What on earth are you talking about? Oh right... yeah, massive breakthrough. :rolleyes: Veeeeeery well known as "August Raids", totally... :rolleyes:

Get some English lessons, kiddo.

Two things here. 1) You have evidence to support your claims that the actions of a meddlesome individual placed Sulake in "a big, stressful situation"? 2) Brush up on that English, or whatever variant you are using.

You really are clueless, aren't you? We don't have "feds", Sherlock. Feds is a slang term for the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Y'know... over here we just have police. Go and hide in whatever hole you crawled out of.

Perfectly acceptable move by Sulake and the police. Such a move has been imminent, and some people don't jump ship early enough.

[Xorx]

Nice, being the hero and acting e-hard.

I can call the police the feds all I like.

You think you actually know about what's happened. That's something to really laugh about.

Otaku-Studios.com

Look up about the August Raids. It was well known as that in Scripting Communities... But of course, 90% of you arselick Sulake, so yeah...

And you think you know about the whole situation. Based on what you have posted in this thread, that's something to really laugh about. Chico, you don't need to be a gangster or e-rebel to get respect. You can make up your masculinity in other ways.

99% of this forum hacked your mum's Habbo account. 97% of statistics are made up, so please save the moronic, hard-man attitude.

Anvrew: Sulake are a company. They have customers. When people start twatting around with their product, they have every right to stop that behaviour. Using the law to put a stop to illegal practices seems pretty sensible, y'know?

[Kipp]

Serves him right.

[BlueEyedSarah]

Its a bit of a blurry picture.

[DeejayMachoo$]

I imagine he will just get a fine.

he probs won't even get charged hes bailed for however long then the police will offer him a caution because the cps will have a hard time fighting it in court :)

Well not a great deal because I don't study CPE. ^_^ But based on the seemingly straight forward statutory provisions... I really do wonder how Ible sees it that way. Maybe he's a CPE-whizz and has read up on all previous applications of this piece of legislation.

[Bun]

god ur so mean lol, let him have his post the poor fella :(

[awelsh]

wow, is this all the police do. Almost as bad as the ones round here, people are getting mugged, stabbed but nahh they decide to caution me for drunk an disorderly twice and then I need to go to them for some **** interview about criminal activities last december.

They should concentrate on serious things and not petty stuff like this, also sulake the money grabbing *******s have it coming to them. When someone gets hacked they arent quick to give furni back are they? they deserve whatever **** they get.

LOL wth?

[24]

Funny him trying to explain that at a Job Interview...
And when he goes abroad...
And to his next girlfriend (unless he gets turned in Jail). Lol. :D

[Zak]

I swear he is breaking their TOS & has broken copyright over and over? lol

I think Sulake had this on their mind for a while, although kind of sad that they did it to a kid. Don't they have better things to do? Obviously not because all they seem to release are re-colours...

[Barmi]

I swear he is breaking their TOS & has broken copyright over and over? lol
But he is not facing criminal proceedings for either of those two.

I think Sulake had this on their mind for a while, although kind of sad that they did it to a kid. Don't they have better things to do? Obviously not because all they seem to release are re-colours...
What are you talking about? You seriously think the whole of Sulake was involved with this and stopped their day to day business to pursue the matter? Ha! And this talk of re-colours? Exactly how much do you want to humiliate yourself? :eusa_whis He is old enough to be treat as an adult under the law.

[Jack.Lfc]

Whens he gotta go to court?

Jeax was kinda cool though

Yeah, he made Habbo worth playing for a few hours when he was scripting and botting in the publics.

[UrbanRyan]

bad news for him..

[Jack.Lfc]

Hasnt he been to court yet?
