Terribly, terribly sorry for the delay. Things came up and I hit a slump, but I've put something up for you. Complete with new character! One I've been meaning to make for a while anyway, so it's perfect. Sorry again, enjoy!

Just a heads-up, I'll be heading out of town from Thursday afternoon until Sunday evening, so if there's any posts between then, I'll get back to them afterward, and wish you all a great weekend ahead of time.

Have a few ideas where things are headed but nothing is set yet... I don't even have my main on the planet yet because he is stuck waiting on Raven lol. Lucian was a stand in and I am just trying to figure out his character, being completely new...

I beg your most graceful apologies for my absence these last months. life hit me with a bag of bricks and I've been putting the pieces back together.
I've currently replied to the post left for me months ago in the Hangerbay, but after some recon I noticed that the team had already posted themselves in the Vanishing place before that thread went dark as well - no doubt because of similar reasons. however I am back and will be able to post semi-regularly once again and so If anyone would like to RP you know where to find me.
Also Tyan if you are still around... I will reply to you as well, but im not sure if you are since you havn't posted since - anywhere....

Just want to repost this here for some more visibility on our end, but at some point in the near-future a few Sith will launch a raid against the Jedi Base. Will definitely accept any and all willing to write defenders, but those who don't wish to be involved, fear not, we'll write around you.

For all those paying attention to such things... Altair just casually accessed the entire Bases network/computer systems. Not sure if there is any techies among the residence here but i thought i'd point it out (post is on the Cloning and Medbay board if you're curious) Just doing a little bit of light stalking... for now.

Not sure if there is any techies among the residence here but i thought i'd point it out (post is on the Cloning and Medbay board if you're curious) Just doing a little bit of light stalking... for now. Uhhhh.... yeah no. But thanks for trying, better luck next time It amuses me when someone has their character stroll in, claiming to be a prodigy slicer, and casually mocks someone else’s security system (because that hasn’t been done before...) I’ll admit I wasn’t as thorough with the Jedi archives security as I was the RDMCs. But at best, you’d have gotten access to the archives enough to stalk whoever you were trying to find, depending upon the classification of their files. Just don’t waltz in though, assuming you’ve gotten full system access. Just sneaking past a firewall won’t cut it. Not sure how technically inclined you are, but these kinds of networks have a number of security features beyond just “oh here is a single firewall, that’ll stop those pesky hackers”. Usually there’ll be about 4 or 5, some physical, some software. Each blocking more ports depending upon where they are located. Then there are also traffic monitoring devices that are both passive and active, as well as a number of authentication checks, access lists (which kind of device has access to what areas of a system), also whether a particular system actually has a physical connection from it to another one (one area of a building, is not necessarily physically connected to another). I think I can safely say that 90% of all modern security systems (the ones with cameras) aren’t actually physically connected to any other part of the network.

Miss the part where he has been here before? He grew up on this planet before you even stepped foot on it. He was there when this base was built on 1.5 and he was part of the first armies that secured it. Even if you revamped the system you wouldn’t have changed the base code, and if you did kindly point to it being done one the boards and I’ll redact my post immediately. I have proof of him being here on the old boards which you can gladly scour through at your leisure... he isn’t a prodigy. He is simply well prepared. Pay attention before you get all sassy at me out of character for a simple and kind warning as to the advancement of my storyline here that may include you.

And that’s good for you. I’m glad to hear you have had some history with Felucia. As you stated however, that was on 1.5 when the place was first secured. The base has since become the headquarters of the Jedi Order, and as you admitted, has been revamped. While the base code may have been reused to some extent (as coders can be lazy), but that doesn’t mean you’ll have unrestrained access to the system. Like I admitted, you’d certainly still be able to get into the archives, even from the medical bay. But the physical layout of the network would prevent accessing the security systems from the medical bay. They’re two seperate physical networks. That was what I was pointing out. Having been to somewhere before does not mean that the network will instantly still be the same And even if someone did design the system that way to begin with, they were a terrible network designer.

Then like I said, kindly point me to where on the boards the system was redone so I can get her a little bit of history for my posts and fix what I’ve messed up, otherwise I have no choice but to leave it how it stands

boards.jedivsith.com/post/85057/threadAt the end of the post here is mention of the upgrade starting. I believe my subsequent posts might mention further work, but I’m not 100% sure. By all means though, please link me to the evidence where someone designed the system such that the security systems were connected in with the rest of the network. As a side note, even if the network was designed that way originally, it wouldn’t have remained that way all this time. Networks get upgrades all the time to increase security.

I'm going to put in a few cents just for my own sake, but bear in mind I didn't bother to actually read your post because I'm lazy, but unless you were part of the technical team that put the system in place just having been here before wouldn't exactly give you full power access to everything. Not to mention the point that just because it's not specifically mentioned in the boards doesn't mean it didn't happen (although in this case it apparently was mentioned anyway. But an entity like the jedi order would have adjusted the computer systems at some point after taking the place over (Honestly I didn't even know the Jedi base had been another kind of base before) so you coul definitely argue some access but not total access. Again some of my assumptions could be incorrect because I didn't do super in depth research as I'm not particularly invested in the cyber security of Felucia, so if I'm wrong I apologize but it does seam like there are a lot of people running around with magic access to systems that they probably shouldn't.

Thank you for that Rawkill I will update my post to take this information into account before proceeding.
Also mike, the base was built and designed by The Felucian conclave - Raven Alora Gadriel’lya zakire jair a few others - and the original base was destroyed and rebuilt when Gadriel’lya, Altair’s General was master librarian, so yes he was part of the team that built or rebuilt the systems. And until Rawkill corrected me I wasn’t aware the system had been changed or upgraded.
Before the system was designed to be accessed anywhere by anyone that could do so, because all of us were equals back then and we were all equally responsible for the bases security. Unlike the common opinion I was not just “waltzing in pretending to own the place”
Rawkill I’ll scoure the archives in my free time to look for what you requested, may take a few days.

Point of clarification I never said anything about waltzing in and pretending to own anything. Most of what I was saying was just my own general theory on computer systems and hacking on JvS. If it seemed like I was witch hunting or atacking you personally I appologize. As stated I have no real idea of the history of the Felucian Jedi Base I just happened to be looking around this part of the boards (having arrived here and whatnot) and saw that. Some of the more technical aspects of JvS have always been of interest to me and I just saw a place to put in a few ideas about the overall concept.

Wasn't a reference to you, no worries...
Also the only reference i can find to a combined security system was when we accessed the bases security during the war with Ramius from a central point. Archive posts - Jedi Base - somewhere around page 940 or so. Gadriel's clones and Gadriel himself when the forces of chaos attacked the base.

No worries, I’m glad we were able to sort this out. I’ll be sure to have a look back and read at some point. But given that the Base was a much smaller crew back then, I can understand why it was set up like that.
Honestly, my frustration was more just because of a situation I’d encountered before where someone did something not all too dissimilar on Yavin IV. Just glad you were much more reasonable about this in the end than he was.

Sorry everyone, kinda went MIA there for a while. My apartment sort of exploded. So I was a little busy with RL for a while till that got covered. But I'm back and curious to see what's been happening.
