  1. Re:That's a different skill-set on Do We Need Regular IT Security Fire Drills? · · Score: 5, Funny

    90% of all IT departments can be driven bat shit crazy by installing a simple light timer on a router or switch and hiding it in the rats nest of power and other cables. Set the timer to be "anti burgular" mode where it adds randomness and have it drop power to a piece of gear for only 10 minutes once a day, because in 10 minutes by the time they get to the network closet, it will be back on and running.

    It will drive them nuts and it will take MONTHS for them to find it, bet you they replace the router/switch befoer they find the timer. Bonus points if you make a decoy cable so that the timer is in the center of the cable hidden in the power tray and both ends look factory standard IEC.

    You can't put "rules" on your auction, are you that stupid to think you can do anything like that? Let me guess you did not read any of the documentation on the side.

    Ebay rules are the only ones that exist, idiots that try to add more rules are ebay newbies. I strongly suggest you READ what you are allowed to do and how to set your auction properly, and it is 100% YOUR FAULT for not setting your auction requirements to reduce the scammeras and idiots.
