[OOC] NCQuest: Favors for Favors (Taking new players)

[M127]

M127 is too much of a hipster for anything else.

@LHG100

Not anything else, just anything involving google, microsoft, apple, amazon, facebook, and similarly sized corporations.

@Gowi @Natsucooldude

Hey, I know christmas has been hectic for everybody, but I would like a post soonish as a gift ;p

[Ladypug]

just popping on to make sure nobody died
@LHG100 @M127 @Gowi @Natsucooldude @McMolly

[Mcmolly]

Still alive and kicking!

[Natsucooldude]

alive!

[M127]

Alive too.(why is this even really doubted in my case)

[Ladypug]

please don't let this RP be dead now ;n;

[Mcmolly]

Yeah, hoping this gets back up to speed soon!

[LHG100]

Hey, @Gowi, @Natsucooldude, I'll allow a few more days if you tell me you need em, but if you can't, I suppose I'll just have to assume direct control of Stein and Jan Van Gent until you two are ready to do things again, in a bit. If you think it'd be better to just MIA for a while until you're ready to get back in, that's fine too.

Also, for everybody else: I've been reading Gowi's post history and it appears something is fucked with his laptop, so y'know. I'l let him do that either way.

[Gowi]

I had no means of accessing a computer for several days. Virus hit me pretty hard but I should be able to co-opt a post within the next two.

[LHG100]

@Gowi, I'm really sorry to hear that fam, that sucks utter ass. I'm glad shit appears to be normalizing again, though.

[M127]

I've got 2 question to the universe, and don't know which is right.

• How does everyone manage to get malware on their computer?(at purchase preinstalled bloatware excluded, if someone includes bloatware in malware)
• How do I manage to NEVER get malware onto my computers?

[LHG100]

Some people are just unlucky, m8. And you're a smartypants who tries not to use the most common websites and whatnot, so I assume you're 'low on the list' anyway, right?

@LHG100

Depends. I am less likely to fall for random mass-attacks, but I am also more likely to be targeted specifically, because avoiding such sites USUALLY has a reason. Although the risk of the latter is still extremely low, I guess.

@M127

1) I've been using the internet for over seventeen years, so I've run into a lot of viruses, malware, and the like. I haven't had a virus like this in a few years (and it got defeated in less than four days with no long-lasting damage to my security or computer); its really not a big deal. As for how the average person gets malware? Ads, misleading links, illegal downloading, etc.

2) A combination of luck and paranoia.

Well kinda an aside, but finally got access to tablet again and worked up some Eli roughs. Still toying with merging pilots and aspects of their NCs, since I can't draw robots for shit, so excuse some of the goofy sci-fi nonsense <D Gonna start trying some of the other pilots! sta.sh/01mnaj3k8ke2

[LHG100]

Edit: MAN, every time I look at it a bit closer, you and ADP draw a lot alike. How adorbs.

[Ladypug]
