Not really a virus per se, but definitely a malicious file.

I would recommend others not to check it anymore, two users is enough to trust that the file must not be downloaded.

Looking at the way he typed, caps, taking up a huge amount of space with his posts, overreacting to simple things, it's safe to assume attention.

Well shit, I couldnt use virustotal to scan the file since it was bigger than 64 mb and forgot about VT's size cap...

However, I was able to scan the file found here with Malwarebytes:

Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

Oddly enough, nothing detected. Same for Avast. Same for Superantispyware. Maybe it was just that one particular link I clicked was safe? For those that were getting antivirus warnings, which AV were you guys using?

You limit yourself so badly when you try to avoid variables. When you get over your fear of the "complexity" of variables, you will find yourself in a better place: A beautiful world where coding is actually fun.

I'm willing to guess it's for this exact same behavior, given I've heard he's like this at other forums.

Is finding MUGEN to be more enjoyable to play when you're not wearing clothes an underrated opinion?

Got 'em.

Boy it sure is fun being the only mod for the forum.
Maybe if you didn't complain about the way I helped you when I tried to help you with that I'd still be helping you. 8)

bragging about doing no mod work is no way to go through anything. It might even offend those that are actually solving those.

And his complaint was legitimate you were just solving necros by clicking solve and not changing anything while saying "if anyone else wants to remove the post its ok" , that meant that now if he wanted to remove necros he would have to check both solved and unsolved reports to make sure he read all reports.

Something I'd been doing for years and nobody complained about until I started helping him clear out reports. I decided that short term necro in a less common section of the forum didn't need to be removed and solved the topic, leaving a message for any mod who wanted to remove it anyway to just go ahead and do it without arguing with me about it.

Oh and right after I posted that post I went and started solving reports again. :P I have the worst sense of humor ever, my apologeez.

solving reports is not helping jmorphman, it's helping the forum. replying to a legitimate forums issue with a terrible joke is all sorts of stupid

The forum issue is the report of necro, and in those cases, it was posts that Caddie didn't think necessary to remove. That's disputable since people will keep reporting it or think the staff doesn't care about their report, but in the end he's still treating them. The joke isn't about that bit.
The thing here is that JMM takes the stance of deleting them, without wondering if they're "harmful" or not - even if they don't hurt anyone, if it's a necro (a real one, unwarranted and all), he deletes them.
So it's only a matter of everyone in the staff to agree on deleting all necros no question asked, or leaving those that "don't harm anyone". Once they agree, JMM knows he won't have to go over the solved reports to delete necros that Caddie didn't consider to be harmful, or Caddie knows that he has to delete unwarranted necros, even if he thinks they're harmless.

FTR, Caddie, necros are bad in general even if they're harmless because it bumps an old topic with no news (like "nice car +1" or "this 5 year old link is dead ! Someone fix it now !"), and that pushes away other topics that deserve some attention because they're actually still going on. Of course this is only a real issue on sections like release and wip, but on discussion sections, it's more of an annoyance than a real problem... But it's still an annoyance. It's a bad habit that no one should get used to and take for granted.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

The necros in question were like 3 months old and that's just too much of a gap to leave up; stuff like 5 week or even 6 week necros are fine.

It's just the solving part; solving means "this issue is done and resolved, no need to check on it". If something is questionable it shouldn't be solved, to give the other mods an opportunity to voice their opinion/take action/whatever.

Also it seems like FireBoy's game itself doesn't have any virus warnings, only his site, and that it might be a false positive or something. So... nothing else needs to be done, I guess.

Geez when did everyone around here get so sensitive? I thought everyone knew by now I respond to most posts with terrible jokes.

Thanks for the heads up Jmorph.
