Default BME got HIJACKED?!?

Taken from Shannon's page on IAM:

2007/09/27 04:56 Over the last month or two Rachel and Jon have taken
control of key aspects of BME without my consent in what seems to be a
hostile takeover attempt. Last night false charges were filed against
me and I just got out of prison, upon which I discovered that I had
been locked out of administrative sections of all the servers as well
as being totally locked out of BME. I don't know how long this account
will remain before it is deleted or locked out as well, because
attempts were made to lock me out of IAM also. I do not have control
over zentastic.com or any of my other servers either so I am unable to
fully post this update. Please pass it on because it may be deleted.

I can be reached at snowrail@gmail.com.

If my access here is cut off or they deactivate the site I will post
updates to bodytwo.com and elsewhere.

I hope that a reasonable resolution to this can be found, but never in
my life have I felt so betrayed or had such underhanded, despicable,
and deceptive attacks launched at me. If a claim is made that this
situation has been resolved and it is not co-posted to at least
bodytwo.com, do not assume it is me making the post.

Cripes... What fresh hell is this? Not that I've been deep
involved in BME, but I thought Shannon *was* BME.

i'm surprised that shannon would give them permissons where they
could do that. with all the custom coding & security on the site, i'd
think he'd specify that they could do anything BUT change HIS permissions.

it's not april yet. this is bizarre.

It sounds to me this was done to him without his consent. It is eerily
familiar to what is being done to me. I feel sorry for Shannon. He is a
very good person, with a beautiful soul and a very loving heart. He does
not deserve this. He is being wrongfully persecuted. I don't want to be
in BME without him, its meaningless without him. I am shocked this is
happening to him. Shannon has been through so much already personally
and in his family. He doesn't need any more pain in his life.

I would hope that this won't be deleted, but I'm quoting the whole thing
just in case:

"Shannon is not locked out of Modblog or IAM. It is the other way
around. He has suspended both my page and Jon, our sysadmin. There are
two things that he does, updating modblog (after Phil sends him images
to post) and updating his personal blog.

He lied/exaggerated about being "sent to prison" as he spent a few hours
in a police station just blocks from the house. I am not the "ex" wife.
I am still his wife. Shannon and I are married, have not even legally
separated even though I left him in the beginning of 2006.

I own 100% of BME and have been running the behind the scenes for almost
7 years. I do not enjoy the limelight so I stay out of it. I run the
business as has been public knowledge until Shannon's removal of links
to me and references. Shannon is the "face" of BME. A public persona
that you are all exposed to. If you don't know who I am or who Jon is,
that is because you haven't been around or very long. Without Jon, IAM
would have died last week and nothing would have been done to save it.
He didn't even get a thank you. When a server went down, *I* was the one
on the first flight out to rebuild it. Learn your BME history.

I am not going to release the details of why Shannon was arrested. He
has conveniently posted here, then said if the post was removed that it
wasn't him unless it was cross posted to bodytwo.com. It hasn't been
posted so it's a very easy way to cause more drama. Just like he said he
didn't TOS my page.

Feel free to continue to cast judgment based on a vague post that
conflicts itself. Those of you calling me "greedy" and making stupid
assumptions about BME/IAM going offline have no idea what you are
talking about. You will feel very foolish when this is all resolved and
it is made very clear what the FACTS are.

All due respect to those involved, but this whole thing seems pretty
fuckin dumb, and not something that needs to be out in the open like
it is.

Good luck to both Shannon AND Racheal in getting this whole mess
cleaned up.

Fwiw, Rachel's the one who set up my IAM account as I had no success
in getting things to work way back when. She even gave me the IAM name
Curt when, iirc, the minimum character count for an IAM names was six
at the time.

re Shannon

Hey, relationships can make men insane. Btdt. Best wishes for all
concerned.

yep, i don't see that post; glad you copied. furthermore, i came
home & found my rss feed had picked up another deleted post:

[-----]

From bozo@dev.null.invalid Thu Sep 27 16:00:31 2007
Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2007 23:00:31 -0000
From: ModBlog <bozo@dev.null.invalid>
To: crank@got.net
Subject: This is Jon posting as Shannon

As you can see, Shannon has not changed his password. For someone who
fears being locked out you'd think the first thing any knowledgable
computer person would do is change their password. He left his password
the same because he wanted me to delete his post, because that would have
only "proved" his continuing lies.

The betrayal post was deleted by him after a close friend called him out
on using all of you to do his dirty work by slandering us. Believe it or
not, I personally do not care, and to be very clear Im not here to slander
anyone, Im posting to defend myself.

I had the courage to do what needed to be done in a very hard time, and
all of you are slandering me based on another persons word.

Unless you know Shannon personally, your opinion of him or who controls
BME is irrelevant. If you were not here last night talking to the police,
or at the police station. I had to go because of shannons outlandish
statements about me to the police, and I didn't even witness what
happened. I have known him for at least 5 years and have LIVED IN THE SAME
HOUSE with him the entire time.

I removed his access to business essential systems after I received a call
from Rachel saying she had just been assaulted, it was clear that he was
being very irrational and was acting out of control. If you run a "family"
business you may understand my reasons for doing so.

I have been the sole sysadmin for BME for over 3 years, I am responsible
for all of our machines and services 24/7/365 and I take that
responsibility very seriously.

IAM members, feel free to search his page for my name and see all that I
have done for BME in the past, it certainly seems like most of you require
a history lesson. I have saved BME countless times, and I have improved
the overall quality of service 100 fold, and this is the thanks I get.

From Shannons page: [http://iam.bmezine.com/iams.exe?cmd=...00602 242123][1]

2006/02/24 21:23 Sorry for all the trouble. I assure you "it hurts me more
than it hurts you" ?~@~T not that such a statement is relevant or
consolation in the least!

Anyway, big thanks to Jon for temporarily donating his server (so his own
site is currently offline) in order to keep BME online. We've tested the
existing account, additions of new accounts, as well as the interface to
IAM (and I've cleared up space for new accounts here also). That said,
there may still be problems, so please tell one of us the details if you
believe you found one.

Theres plenty more [search for yourself][2]

If you are my friend, if you know me personally, you know what type of
person I am. Defend me if you wish, I wont hold it against you if you
dont.

This post to modblog has been deleted by now, but I was able to catch it
soon after it was posted while keeping tabs on events via my cell phone.

While I don't know every event, I do remember several events when Jon
and/or Rachel where the ones that kept both sites running, or got them
back up after a failure. I also know from many posts over the years
that Rachel is right when she says she's the one that's been running
everything behind the scenes for so long.

I'd like to think I'm a vary rational person. So I'm doing some
rational things and hoping everyone else does the same:
A) know that IAM/BME are safe and will continue to operate uninterrupted.
B)No one but the participants know what really happened, nor is it any
of our business. This whole thing should have been kept between the
two/three of them.

You are right. The entire thing should have been kept private. It has
nothing to do with BME at all but now Shannon has brought it on to
BME. He TOS'd my page, Jon's page and then his page after deleting his
own posts on Modblog. He continually posted about how he couldn't post
on any of these sites but for some reason nobody clued in that he was
posting the entries on the sites he claimed he couldn't post on!

I haven't done anything to the sites, it seems that I am getting all
of the blame though.

i'm not assigning blame to anyone, & i'm glad to see you posting
here. while i agree it's private & should've been kept private, it wasn't.
much like with anyone else in the spotlight, the fans have *some* right to
know what's going on; at least, they have a right to know the WHOLE story
when only a part is given out.

& the whole story means from all parties' sides.

any clarification is appreciated, rachel. & i hope this bullshit
isn't affecting your kid.

"BME UPDATE!
Please ignore the rumor mills and ridiculous drama that is currently
being spread via myspace bulletin.

BME and IAM are NOT going offline. There has been no change in
ownership and the site has not been
sold. Shannon and Rachel Larratt continue to operate the site and no
one has been removed from
working for the company.

Long Live BME!"

Uh... from the link above:

"IAM is currently offline."

Fyi, Clean. ;o)

But, yeah, not foreverever. Unless, of course, "as long as we both
desire and I will strive to ensure its healthy future" could be
loosely defined as "yeah, but, nothing lasts forever." I wish all
concerned the best. They can keep my ten bucks. That said, and all the
same, I trust that the following words are gospel:

"Your personal content is perfectly safe, and will not be lost. Some
user accounts appear to have been deleted but please don't worry as we
have a complete back up of the site from Wednesday September 19th,
2007 on a machine that is not affected by this outage. Those of you
experiencing difficulty accessing the site will be fully credited for
your down time."

Okay.

> Long Live BME!"


Agreed!
