This week we interviewed our Community Manager @Blank . Here is the interview.

 

What is your favorite thing to do IRL? Do you have a hobby?

Hmm, this is a tough one. My absolute favourite thing to do in real life would just be hangimg out with my friends. I'm in a fraternity for those who didn't know, and these take up a bunch of time. At least here they do. There are days I'm just with my friends and we all don't really know how the day past by so quick just because we were messing about and doing a whole bunch of nothing. As for a hobby : does partying count? Spend most of my days doing that really. When I'm not working on school work, or on Alora I'm usually partying. 

 

What is it that you enjoy most of the Alora Community? Being able to see so many people enjoy the game, ye it's been a rough start. And ye last week my whole week might have only had around 20 hours of sleep (I think Omi can relate to this, probably slept even less than I did). But it's been worth it. You guys are what make it all so worth it. I know I'm strict, but it's how I prefer to run a professional server. I might be a little too strict, but I'm sure people will adapt. 

 

Favorite TV Show? This is a hard one. I'm a fan of House of Cards, and Game of Thrones (though I never finished either nor am I anywhere close to catching up). I'd say I'd have to give it to Suits. It's the only thing that I was able to binge watch to the end.

 

Where do you see yourself 5 years from now? Don't know, I'm not really a guy who thinks of the future that much. More of a live in the moment kind of guy. We'll see what the world has planned for me I guess?

First off, thank you for posting this thread. I wish I didn't know about all of this because this dark side of the RSPS world should never exist. Hopefully this will help people who were naive as I once was protect themselves from that dark side.

A long time ago, I was keylogged and I was in absolute panic. He took over control of my computer and started typing things to me. I was younger and I ha no idea what to do. He opened up like 100+ gay porn sites and continued trying to scare me while writing on my computer. It was fucking traumatizing. Anyway, the point is, what should I have done? At the time, I did not know what to do so I just turned the computer off and hoped the gay porn sites would go away before my parents woke up to use the computer in the morning. (They didn't go away and my parents thought I was gay for a while, but that's another story).

 

omg, hahahaha.

 

Anyways, I would have reformatted the OS, fresh re-install. Most keyloggers\RATS don't out source from the operating system. It is possible to still be infected even after reformatting if it's a sufisticated enough. I'm guessing you were using windows. After that a good antivirus..
