Ahhh shit, here we go again.

At this point I’m cheering for them. You go get your internet clout Warthunder dude. Classified Smassified.

In these troubled times is good to know there is still a group of people who will reliably do the one thing these good at

Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone on 24 Jun 06:29 next collapse

The user received a temporary ban.

Every time I reread this sentence I crack up again. What gets you a permanent ban??

Saleh@feddit.org on 24 Jun 06:45 next collapse

Gajin was founded in Russia and only moved offices to Hungary in 2015.

Giving a temporary ban reserves plausible deniability while keeping the honeypot open.

Yeah… that is xenophobic nonsense.

You don’t need a major successful live service game to build a honeypot for military secrets. I remember back in the day the arma fansites and the like would be CONSTANTLY filled with “is it real? if so… somebody getting black van’d” style posts. Same with flight sims. Anywhere you have even pseudo-realistic military hardware/tactics you will have people who insist on stuffing files in their pants and scanning them to prove why the thing they work on is better.

It is always hilarious that warthunder can’t go a month without classified information. But that more just speaks to how insanely popular that game is.

I imagine that’s handed out by state security.

Stealing an actual Harrier and delivering it to --> Budapest, Hungária krt. 162, 1146

I believe war thunder considers these people to be band ambassadors. After all, we’re talking about it.

Little8Lost@lemmy.world on 24 Jun 06:53 next collapse

The funniest thing about this one (for me) is that users in the forum mentioned “hey, i really think {somedude} would like it”
And the reply from another user was: “yea, but he got a ban”
(something something i forgot)
“it was him”

So the leaker was an active part of the community XD

this is not what they said litterally but how i remembered the context!

Lemminary@lemmy.world on 24 Jun 07:06 next collapse

I wish these headlines enumerated which time this was. What if it’s the second time this week? How would I know? /s

I would like to subscribe to this topic. *click*

So what was the info this time?

modus@lemmy.world on 24 Jun 12:30 collapse

Technical manual for a Harrier.

Really? Sweet, I’ve got all the parts for one of those but no idea how to put them together!!
