Those bastiches! They got my ATM cards for BOTH banks!!! Looks like I'm in for a loooong time on hold this afternoon . . . .

Elspode 01-20-2008 09:44 PM

So that is simply all possible combinations of four numbers, then?

xoxoxoBruce 01-20-2008 10:26 PM

Yes.

Undertoad 01-20-2008 10:26 PM

Only the ones they permit for PINs.

Drax 01-20-2008 10:51 PM

It's obviously someone's pathetic attempt at paranoia.

Aliantha 01-20-2008 11:07 PM

This is only a problem if you have a 4 digit pin.

Up it to 5 or 6 digits and no one will ever figure it out. ;)

Hiya Drax. Good to see you again.

I thought it was an attempt at humour based on paranoia. At least, that's what my brain implant chip wants me to think. I'd better play along cause the cameras are watching. And they are logging my keystrokes, too.

Then why don't they post names along with the PINs? I don't buy it.

Drax, it's a joke. They've put every possible combination of 4 digit numbers on a page so that when you look for yours, it'd definitely there. No one's going to get enough chances with the atm to try out all the different combinations though are they?

They don't really know what your pin is. They just know it's one of those number sequences.

Of course it is. Granted I'm a bit paranoid at times, but I am somewhat logical.

Yes, we may call you brain damaged (:nuts:), but I literally have brain damage. :D

Aliantha 01-20-2008 11:36 PM

well that's nice to know.

lumberjim 01-20-2008 11:36 PM

yeah....well....i wasn't actually referring to you.

Drax 01-20-2008 11:45 PM

My bad. Still...ya' know. :p

That's CP fer ya'. It doesn't affect my intelligence though, only my motor skills.

xoxoxoBruce 01-21-2008 12:04 AM

If I didn't respect you, I'd ignore you.
But because I do respect you, you're going to receive your share of my criticism, when I think it's warranted, just like everyone else.

Drax 01-21-2008 12:12 AM

Fair enough, but as in the video clip, I'm gonna post what the vidz I like. After all, isn't that why UT created it?

xoxoxoBruce 01-21-2008 12:14 AM

Post away, but don't get bent out of shape if I tell you I think it sucks.

Drax 01-21-2008 12:16 AM

I'll try. :p

Kingswood 01-21-2008 12:25 AM

Very amusing! I wonder how many people would now be more paranoid after reading this.

The page has that kind of information that we are bombarded with every day in the modern world - technically correct but utterly useless.
