question?

So how can you tell if your team/ guild member/s are CIA or al-Qadea agents?.....

ask them for pics if they got a can of oil shoved thier rear end and a G. W. Bush tattoo on thier arms then they are obviously not in Osama's entourage.

It's amazing how easily a headline can twist a story.

Notice the complete absence in that document of any suggestion that they would be searching for terrorists in WoW, or even online games in general.

The fact that anyone could write such an article, and people would believe it, is a perfect example of how the Bush administration conned the American people into invading Iraq through misleading representation of "facts".

Makes perfect sense why molten core has a boss that plants bombs on you now. Actually this explains the sudden focus on arena, team building for real life PVP.

Actually, I don't think the article stretches things much at all. It just skips a little of the reasoning needed to make things absolutely crystal clear...

The CIA is an intelligence gathering organisation. It's mandate is to gather data to defend the US against threats. Many members of the US government perceive the current major threat as terrorism...

If the CIA isn't looking for things such as terrorism in online games then this study lies outside of it's mandate.

America is in decline. 

 

Our economy is going into the toilet.  Our military is being wasted in police actions around the globe.  We spread our forces thin, underequip and underpay our military.  Our rights to privacy are being curtailed as the government spies on our emails, phone conversations, etc.  Our right to own property has recently been impeached by new eminent domain laws that strip land owners of their rights.  Our infrastructure is in a state of disrepair.  Less people getting married, babies out of wedlock, crime and drug use on the rise. Inexcuseable mortality rates among infants, poor healthcare system...

 

We lack leadership.  We lack heroes.  We lack the morale high ground that we once stood for.

 

And the only way to stop this steady decline is for the CIA to get accounts in WOW to pawn all the terrorists in pvp.

Terrorist wouldnt be playing Wow or use Wow. The only thing they would try to do is actually blow up Blizzard.

I mean if a muslim saw these half naked elves they would probably faint or give up on religion and start waking it. If anything we need to put in more nudity in these games to keep the terrorists out actually.

Timothy McVeigh actually trained and recruited from a popular MUD game back in the early nineties. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that UO and EQ were training grounds for the attack on September 11. I'm glad the government is cracking down on this out of control problem we have. Its a good thing they are still handing out food stamps in the ghetto, so they can still afford all that weed and booze.

ANN(Azeroth News Network): We are recieving reports that a griffon has apparently hit the Great Forge this day. We switch now to Spanksalot, who is live on the scene

Spanksalot: It seems that the griffon did indeed stray off course and hit the Great Forge. (Another griffon slams into the great forge) OMG DUDE LOOKIT another griffon Just hit the Great Forge! There is molten metal being splashed all over.

Rezmequick: Its a conspiracy. These were remote controlled griffons and this was a dev staged event.

And it goes on from there.

Probably MY fault.  I posted on a known to be monitored miltia website aka ASSAULTWEB.net  that I had a vent server that had arabs on it who played WoW.  I suspect the CIA got word of this "problem" from that post, even though it was obivous that all of those guys were liberals who had no use for radicals.

As I am a contributor on a militia website I really don't care much about being monitored as I was aware that would happen when I got involved.  I do hate the scare tacitics the CIA uses to scare other people.  It's a movement that opposes free thought.

 

Please don't tell me that you really think you had something to do with this... This has to  be a joke.

It has been known for some time that terrorists have been using WoW to train people...

 

 

I hate to say it and it may sound pompous but yeah.  I've been targeted before.  I had people contact me wanting to trade an "AK-47" for a pistol that I was trying to sell.   It was obviously not a legal deal. ...  I don't buy for one second that these guys were militia... no one would be that stupid.....

I'm pretty sure my posts are monitored.

 

If your line is hard monitored, you will hear a faint click on an interval. There is of course other ways for checking to see if your phone is tapped. This isn't the forum for it though.


Actually thats BS.

Your phone line is no longer tapped like it was in the 40's-80's.

It's a direct link with the telecommunications.

How do I know this?

I was training for such things. There is no clamp, there is no crackle, and their sure as hell isn't a guy in a van across the street unless they are doing video/parabolics/heat.

These calls can be monitored from the station via servers and access to the telecommunications server.

Nobody hard monitors anymore.

More bullshit about big brother?

Look. About WoW has about 10 million subscribers world wide. Only the Gods know how many people play video games online total. That's one hell of a lot of "white noise" to have to shift through.

Trying to find even a moderately sized group of of people in all that is like trying to find a needle in a.... great big... stack of... needles...

The government can't even deliver the fuckin' mail. And I'm supposed to believe that they know everything I say over every electronic medium I use? Whatever....

Really tho, who cares if the CIA is patrolling thru any game in an attempt to find terroirst communications. Just think about it a minute, it may seem stupid to you but maybe thats just why they are looking at wow as a possible source for terrorist orgs to send messages back and forth.  If you where planning some kinda mass murder of thousands of non militant civilians where would you hide your communication?? Would you make a website for it that has a huge possibility of getting attention or would you hide it in a virtual world that has connected 9 million people over 100 countries. Now im not saying that anyone is hiding anything in WoW or any other game but I CANT say they are not.  Just think for a second, when 9/11 went down and people started digging we found that government orgs had knowledge of it but it was scattered bits of info over several areas that all pieced together and everyone went nuts blaming the FBI and CIA of not doing anything when they had all the info before hand. Now we are here bitching about then doing just that, looking anywhere and everywhere for signs of something else to come.  So Im thinking we need to decide do we want them to do their jobs and what we asked and try to find the pieces of the puzzle and put them together or do we want them to leave our games alone and stop watching.  Me, I could care less they are looking over the game I am playing, I am not doing anything that will get me in trouble with the CIA, hell i could talk to a friend about smokin some dope and snortin a few lines, and I know the CIA wont do shit about it cuz they dont care.  They arent lookin for dope smokers or anything like that. So unless you are trading weapons and using WoW to hide your communication or you are planning on droppin some more planes on some more innocent NON-MILITANT civilians, i dont really think you need to worry. Hence wtf are you bitching about???

At first , I really thought this was a made up story, but I wouldnt doubt at all that online games with chat wouldnt be listened to by any goverment. A good friend of mine in England told me that the English Govt. found people in online porn chat rooms. They found them with a bunch of bomb making materials. Yea, I wouldnt doubt at all if they were using online games to talk to each other.  Also, just about every major country in the world is listening in on almost everything whether they will ever admit or not.

If you look at how many men,women and children have died to muslims around the world just because they werent muslims, you would be crazy to not think the US Govt wouldnt do anything in its power to stop more people being killed.

 

my 2 cents
