| R.A.G. | |
| Rodents Are Gay | |
| Starring Codes Master | |
| Welcome to the first and last issue of R.A.G. This month we will feature a | |
| nauseating article about this months feature idiot - Codes Master. Remember, | |
| this file is not for you people with weak stomachs and parental discretion | |
| is advised. Rated R (for rodent). | |
| First, a little introduction. The purpose of R.A.G. is to seek out and | |
| destroy potential idiots, assholes and posers. Obviously Codes fits into all | |
| these catagorys. We obtained a taped interview with Codes at his home in | |
| Mickey, Mississipi, and was able to get a few truths revealed. Here is a | |
| small transcript of the interview. "ME" is the interviewer, "HIM" is Codes. | |
| ME: Nice place you have here. I see your into art. Ah, thats an interesting | |
| peice there. What do you call it? | |
| HIM: Thanks. Thats called, "Mickey's Rat Trap". It shows the valiant Mickey | |
| cleverly stealing the cheese from the trap without setting it off. | |
| Actually, it was quite a bargain, and cost me mere $250. | |
| ME: Thats interesting. You seem to have an obsession with Mickey Mouse and | |
| other rodents (looking around I see portraits of Mighty Mouse, Jerry, | |
| Speedy and others). | |
| HIM: Its just one of my hobbys. | |
| ME: Okay, anyway, on with the interview. We understand that you consider | |
| yourself, and I quote, "an expert on Primos". But we have seen | |
| conflicting views when it comes to the truth of this. Alot of people | |
| seem to think you don't know anything, and what you do know has been | |
| learned in a very short period of time. Is there any truth to this? | |
| HIM: Uh, would you like something to drink? Some treats perhaps? I have | |
| some excellent chees...... | |
| ME: No thank you. Back to the question, are you really a Prime expert? | |
| HIM: Well, I, uh...I guess you could say that. Have you ever read my Prime... | |
| ME: No I havent. Sources tell me that you have claimed you had system access | |
| on the Henco Prime on Telenet. But my sources know for a fact that you | |
| haven't. Is there any truth to this? | |
| HIM: Well, no... | |
| ME: Thats what I thought. Also, I would like to bring up the little war | |
| between you and Evil Jay. You have claimed that the reason you didn't | |
| see eye-to-eye was because both of you were working on seperate versions. | |
| Yet, we both know that aside from versions lower than 19 there are | |
| not too many changes so we really dont understand your comment. | |
| HIM: What kind of interview is... | |
| ME: We also understand that you posted a message on Phantasie Realm that | |
| contained the, and I quote, "new 617 Cosmos dialups". Yet these dialups | |
| have been around for years and died more than a month before your post. | |
| Any comments, Codes? | |
| HIM: I.... | |
| ME: Okay, how about your "Real Hackers, Phreakers and Trashers Guide". | |
| You made some interesting comments on there, such as, "Real phreaks are | |
| mostly pirates" and "Real phreaks dont have handles like Mr Phreak". | |
| You obviously didn't take a look at your own handle, but we will skip | |
| that little misunderstanding. The thing we find curious about the file | |
| was that it was written in January of this year (1987). At this time, you | |
| were a member on some respectful systems, such as Shadowspawn. What we | |
| cant understand is why a phreak, who is on some pretty good boards, would | |
| write such a rodentish file. Comments? | |
| HIM: You know how I feel about rodents. (HE glances fondly at Mickey portrait) | |
| ME: I see. How long have you been hacking a phreaking? | |
| HIM: Uh, about a year or les... | |
| ME: I see. Is it true you were an infamous TMC code poster last summer, | |
| sometimes posting up to 30 TMC codes per message, but never anything else? | |
| HIM: HEY, NOW WAI... | |
| ME: I see. Isn't it true that the majority of your posts since you have been | |
| accepted on some major boards, have been advertisments for your somewhat | |
| faulty Prime hacking files? | |
| HIM: You have to advertise nowadays to get any recognition for anything. | |
| You know?1 | |
| ME: Well, isn't that special. We got a chance to see your application to | |
| Atlantis, and noticed that you said you had experience with Vax/VMS, RSTS | |
| and some other operating systems. But close sources who know you well | |
| tell us this is a lie, and if you did know anything its probably how to | |
| get a directory, chat with a user and other general crap. Is this true? | |
| HIM: WHAT THE HELL KIND OF INTERV... | |
| ME: Well thats about it for today. Thanks alot Codes Master. May the force | |
| be with you. | |
| HIM: WAIT A...(He starts to grab the interviewer...to Codes amazement, a mask | |
| falls off and...) | |
| HIM: EVIL JAY?!?!1 | |
| ME: Thats right! We have you on tape now buddy. Your life is ruined... | |
| The rest is to graphically violent to show here. But Jay emerged unscathed | |
| to hand us the copy of this interview. Codes was last seen walking towards | |
| Katheryn Hamilton Mental Center and had no comment. | |
| So, we have unraveled the mysterys of one of the greatest posers of our | |
| time and exposed the man to what he really was all the time. A mouse. | |
| A fiendish poser, seeking to infilterate the higher levels of hacking and | |
| phreaking, for his own greedy amusement. Everything in this article was | |
| true, and we advise sysops to think twice about admitting Codes "Mighty | |
| Mouse" Master on your bulletin board system. Thank you and have a nice day. | |
