:The Darkedge Incident:
The Editors
Darkedge is an Irish guy who hangs out on Dalnet. Cronus is also
Irish and also hangs out on Dalnet in roughly the same areas as
Dark. Cronus had been mail bombed with an expression that Dark
had yelled at him earlier after being kicked from a channel that
Cronus was opped in. And Cronus went looking for Darkedge on IRC.

Tdc.ie is Trinity College Dublin in Ireland and he was at the computer
labs there in the city centre. Cronus and Rue were at Cronus's house
online.

<Darkedge> are you playing a fucking joke on me??
<^cronus^> a joke ?
<^cronus^> you asked for Rue to break your legs
<^cronus^> does it sound like Rue's laughing ?
At this point, Cronus and Rue set up a Back Orifice server to bounce
a connection from a Cyber Cafe to IRC. They had been at the BetaCafe
in the City earlier that day and set it up.

<Rue-the-Day> Sup All
<Darkedge> Rue?
<Rue-the-Day> Hi Cronus
<Darkedge> what the fuck is going on
<Rue-the-Day> Hey Daxxx, Zeris
<Rue-the-Day> ahh Darkedge
<^cronus^> Hey RUE !
<Darkedge> what am i being blamed for??
<Rue-the-Day> I'm in the beta cafe in temple bar
<Rue-the-Day> what seems to be the trouble ??
On checking where Rue was, it seemed that he wasn't simply at Cronus's
house but actually in Town near Trinity College. At this point we were
both beginning to laugh heartily.

Cronus continued to talk with Darkedge in private. Rue was hysterical
at this point.
<^cronus^> How long do you think Rue can walk from Temple Bar ?
<^cronus^> 5 minutes ? you think
<^cronus^> although he is very tall and walks fast
<Darkedge> i will be here all night

<^cronus^> Cya in about 15 minutes
Cronus quit off IRC but then came back right away and Darkedge had
already gone off. Cronus and Rue were both far from the City Center,
but Darkedge left Trinity afraid that Rue was on his way. It was
never mentioned again, but at the next 2600 Meeting in the City,
Darkedge pulled Cronus and Rue aside and apologised and claimed
innocence.
We both still laugh about the whole thing to this day. Beware.
