IRC attitude
Well I go online in search of help for securing my perlscript and this is the attitude i get.
<jkrohn_> Hello, anyone who can help me with Perl?
ωνω mode/#house [+v jkrohn_] by Angel
<UrbanFizBoz> maybe
<UrbanFizBoz> ask your question
<jkrohn_> I have written a CGI that automates the application process online at my work. Takes infrom from POST and sends it back out using sendmail
<jkrohn_> my question regards securing it
<jkrohn_> can you help?
<jkrohn_> I have already stripped most malicious things out with =~ and am just curious if I need to error check each value or if it is safe to just print them out after stripping them
<jkrohn_> the only thing the variables are used in is the body of the email, so just print MAIL
<UrbanFizBoz> you understand?
<jkrohn_> hmm, if you said something I did not get it
<jkrohn_> <jkrohn_> the only thing the variables are used in is the body of the email, so just print MAIL
<jkrohn_> <UrbanFizBoz> you understand?
<UrbanFizBoz> "if you said something" ?
<jkrohn_> all I got was "you understand?"
<jkrohn_> so i'm assuming there was a statement before that
<UrbanFizBoz> listen troll... go find another victim... we're all full up here
<jkrohn_> I am being serious man
<jkrohn_> I will paste my log
<UrbanFizBoz> who gives a flyin fork
<UrbanFizBoz> im too busy to deal with trolls
<jkrohn_> I care, because I have an honest question, and I think you tried to answer it
<UrbanFizBoz> now go away, before someone drops a house on you... too.
<jkrohn_> well I apologize you think I am a troll
<UrbanFizBoz> yeah, heat my firewall, i run this place. you think I don't know what msg you recieved.
<jkrohn_> I know you don't believe me, not much I can do about that
<UrbanFizBoz> sure there is, you can go shoot yourself
<jkrohn_> Well I qill ask one more time for you to just copy & paste what you said. I did not get it, I am sorry. I will leave after this.
<jkrohn_> Well seeing that I have not gotten anything yet either you aren't sending it or my connection is messed up. Sorry I wasted you time.
Then I leave the channel. Not five seconds later I get a local kill and a kline!
Now, for some crazy reason my connection drops things! I know this as I haev verified it before (ie other people in channel saw something and I did not, more than one occasion). Too bad this guy was such a jerk.
Makes me think there are no good networks other than our place seems to be teh only place not populated wiht complete jerks

...but I guess that's not possible. Many seem to say things online they would never say in real life, can be good or bad
