Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Edit: emailed this person, told them to be more careful about what they upload to the server. Thanks for the advice.

Long story kind of short, I found a strange file on the server at work (Arabic file name, company working language is definitely not Arabic) opened it up (I was intrigued by the cover illustration) and after some translating I discovered the book was The Manipulated Man. Checked the file properties, I know who uploaded the file to the server, but I have absolutely no relationship with this person (besides working for the same company).

Where you tankie bastards come in:

  • Should I do nothing?
  • Should I confront this person? If yes, how should I confront this person?

Much Love

What’re you hoping to accomplish? I can’t imagine the guy reacting well to randomly being confronted by a stranger.

I was basically planning to say:

  • Be careful about what you upload to the server
  • Read better books

Maybe send an email then. Uploading any personal content to a public server has always been frowned upon at places I’ve worked so it’s not crazy to contact the guy—especially if your job is in anyway related to network security or other IT type work.
