I have lost some respect for Andy in this episode. He was correct that Naomi guessed and used his credentials to log in to another site, but the fallout -- including private emails to me and who knows how many others -- was way out of proportion IMO. Stomping on the troubled is not a trait I admire.


>Yes, I've read that. It was ridiculously easy to get into his account and Andy should have not been so quick to imply she got his password via her privileges at the UT when he had such an easily guessable, completely laughable password. However, the concerns were raised and Michel - as far as I know - has failed to address them. To me, that indicates a disregard for his users.

>>In an email (published in another message here today), she details how she guessed Andy's username and password. And let me tell you, it wasn't difficult at all. So, doesn't sound to me like UT data was compromised at all...

>>>But so far no reply from Michel (that I have seen). He needs to address the security concerns of his users. Not doing so would show quite a bit of disrespect for us. I hope he won't take that attitude towards these questions or us. Martin - I think it was Martin - has indicated he can't see passwords and billing info, but Michel needs to answer these questions himself.

>>>>>A fight between Andy and Naomi, which is getting rather personal and out of hand, is not your concern. However, it was implied that a UT admin (moderator, consultant, whatever the correct title is) can see a user's password. This should be a concern to you and quite a number of people here would like to know if passwords can be viewed. You have not directly answered that, but it would be helpful if you did. If they can view them, then that feature needs to be changed to a "reset only" feature (they can't view a PW and can only reset it).

>>>>>>Last week, I have received emails in regards to an issue that happened elsewhere on the net. I have not followed that at all as what happens elsewhere on the net should not have any relation with me. From another email I received today, it seems there has been some assumptions on fraudulant operations by someone who has helped me a lot on the site so far on specific procedures such as fixing messages layout and moving threads in proper places. To my understanding, because of that relation, some individuals have decided to send me requests directly by email as well as indirectly online about that issue. To make it simple, as I said, what happens elsewhere on the net does not concern me. If some persons elsewhere have an issue with someone involved or not with this site, then, please, I would appreciate if those persons resolve the issue between them. Thank you for your cooperation
