You don't need to click a resource for it to potentially cause harm, the browser simply loading the resource would be enough. That is precisely why Chrome and Firefox blocked the entire threads from loading. Someone with Russian Rocket's technical expertise should be the first to confirm that, which is why his reaction has been somewhat surprising. A guy who accidentally posts harmful content typically doesn't berate your staff and explain how much damage he could have done if he wanted to. That doesn't quite pass the smell test.
Here are the warnings that the posts Russian Rocket made caused; the domain name has been redacted for your protection:
Our tech team is completing their review of his posting history. It would be irresponsible to allow him to make new posts during this time as much as you guys may like him. We will update once this review has been completed.Comment -
not zapped......just given a little slap.........I'll say this and then stop......I'd be surprised if RR did this intentionally....he's always been very helpful to me and is an entertaining guy......i obviously don't know the ins and outs of phishing so hopefully this has all been a misunderstanding and we can move onLast edited by USCPHILLYGUY; 05-20-16, 12:24 PM.Comment -

So this means he could have been stealing all our info?Comment -
well, we've often suspected he was a russian mobster.... hell, i've been accused of being a russian mobster myself due to partying with some known russian mobsters at a high end swinger's bar one night.... had to answer "are you really in the russian mob" for the next six months due to that shit.....You don't need to click a resource for it to potentially cause harm, the browser simply loading the resource would be enough.

but, i digress..... This "phishing" for financial data is part of a well-known Russian Mob scheme to bilk stupid americans out of their money..... RR has always looked somewhat down at us stupid americans..... and he's cool and has the swagger of a Russian Mob capo, and gets plenty of ass like made mob guys do.... and he travels around the US and other places on "business" that none of us quite have a grasp of wtf it might be.....
Athough this circumstantial evidence isn't near of the caliber of the evidence against that other euro, Sniper, who was using ghosts to run over the "stupid americans" in the sbr poker room via a nefarious and quickly sniffed out chip-dumping scheme, it might add up to something....Comment -
with all this banning going on, I'm very nervous about pulling the trigger on the "sure to be the news of the day" here at sbr..... I wish I'd get a confirmation from the Brass I emailed.....
while it's epic, it's not worth getting banned over.............Comment -
Wait a Fkn second is this why my phone has been blowing up with international calls offering me beautiful Ukrainian brides and Nokia phones?Comment -
Please don't overthink. I'm telling you this as a manager who deals with Russians/Ukrainians at work on a daily basis. I too used to think that they were not "quite passing the smell test". And I was wrong, because in the majority of cases they say and do things like that for a very simple reason: their stupidity. They usually don't mean any harm, they just have no idea that they are causing it.Comment -
SBR Office Photo Celebrating Banning RR
Comment -
lol I remember when russian rocket asked me to email him... he is so transparentComment -
everytime I've been banned, I don't have the opportunity to post "i've been banned"....
that's why now I generally, after posting a diatribe or blast or someone like small b's personal information, I generally fire off a post saying, "if i get banned..." or "I'm about to be banned...." on some topic, so that when I vanish for good people won't say "wtf happened to that asshole?"
or did you read the substantive post that got him banned? if so, without repeating so that u get banned, what the hell was the gist of it?
I was in the middle of asking him about it yesterday at the poker table when SBR booted me the fuk out, so I didn't get to the bottom of itComment -
ah, i thought maybe he actually posted them, and was curious as to what the evidence would show usComment -
Well... for whatever it's worth... I always believed Russian Rocket was a straight shooter. I just don't quite understand why he would do something like that? My mind wants to say it was just a mistake... an accident.
Just have a hard time believing he did this intentionally.Comment -
I'm with TMS on this.....
doubt it was intentional, and he was probably just pissed at being accused of it, resulting in the off the cuff comment that if he wanted to do shit to the site, he could do a lot worse.....Comment -
I stand with SBR here, they have a duty to protect the forum, their investment and posters. This is true of any community, no one is greater than the whole, same applies here.
I also stand with RR, guy is a top poster, and I seriously dou t he intended to do any harm. Him saying "do you know how much harm I could've done" is a very true statement, and I don't see the problem in him telling the truth.
It seems the prudent thing would be to let him post While you all dif througg his old posts, just limit his posting to text only. Think outside the box, find a way to keep good posters posting.
Lets be real, he's been a great asset to SBR and last I checked, him and Bigday have been the top two posters to motivate others to go pro and donate points to charity. Remember around Christmas when that little Bitch Sweep ran those dick sucking lips of his about donating to kids and then stiffed the kids? Then RR stepped up and donated on Sweeps behalf and then got about a dozen other posters to join in?
Lets not just focus on this one blip, I believe he's built up enough cred and good-will to give him the benefit of the doubt during the "review"Comment -
good point by Kracken..... on sbr's position..... one can make factual statements, but when done a certain way, they can be perceived as a threat.... I think it was miscommunication totally....
rocket was trying to make the point that he wasn't doing anything with whatever it was, and defending himself with the rationale of "really, you think I'd do this, hah... if I really had the intent to fuk with sbr, I'd be capable of oh so much more than this piddly bullshit".... He didn't mean to threaten that he'd do it, but sbr on the other hand, took it as a threat, or at least a potential threat, and had to do what it did to, as kracken noted, protect itself and the other members of sbr....
hopefully it'll get worked out..... but you can't really blame sbr for being cautious here....
shit, every damn day I get attempted online attacks.... some of the malware varitey, some common viruses, and some from over-the-top-coming-out-of-the-closet sbr posters who want to attack my ass bareback.....
it's a dangerous world onlineComment -
Agree with Kraken and Donk. Besides, anybody here could repost something, pic, video, link, etc, and any of it could possibly contain spyware or a virus. Most of these loser fuk's like ttwarrior and seaweed have tons of gay porn on their computers and don't have a fuk'in clue about adequate anti virus software or malware protection. If your dumb ass is stupid enough to click on a link without knowing who sent it or scanning it first, that's on your dumb ass. Free Russian Rocket!Comment -
Guys a jerkoffComment -
If you're saying I misquoted RR, thats fine, I'm jist going by what SBR said he wrote. I never saw the quote, so whatever.
If you're implying Im foegetting all the good RR brought to this forum, then you might want to re-read my post pal, it was basically 5 paragraphs of why he is good for sbr and should be allowed to post again.
When you quote me, you might wanna clarify your remarks if you're going include thoughts beyond my quoteComment
