NaveWeiss's Journal: I never submitted that /. article!

I was searching for my username, out of boredom, in Google, and some weird site had my username in it, and it points to this slashdot article about cute n' fuzzy intrusion detection, allegedly submitted by me.

Well, I never posted this thingie. I'm not into OpenBSD. I wonder very much if someone submitted it under my name, or it's just some database error.

And here's another unexpected place where I was mentioned. Do you know Skaven? He's one of the most famous trackers (one of those people who used to compose music files and distribute them freely, before MP3 file were common). So if you look in his page for the words "The final goblin", you'll see that he linked to my comment. I'm so thrilled! I'm one of Skaven's mad fans.

PS: Thank you again, Bethanie, for the GMail invitation!

Hmmmm

I haven't submitted articles in ages, but I seem to recall that it was possible to write your "real name" instead of "Anonymous Coward" or your nick. Not sure, it has been a long time.

Perhaps this guy just is called "Nave" "Weiss" (do not ask me if that even could be a real name!) It is pretty odd.

Finally: the other link is pretty cool. It's funny he read that comment at slashdot and remembered you when he released the song.

Yes, the "your name" field is completely editable on the submissions page [slashdot.org].
