I'm sure most of our long time folders remember Team FTL, with their member-base recruited by shady tactics involving sticking the F@H files in a torrent and labelling them as a "cpu core optimiser" (or words to that effect).
Well it looks like Stanford (finally!) took action against them as I just noticed EOC is now showing their points as 0:

'bout time! lol, Looking at the production stats, looks like this was done in July. But I'll leave this thread up so people that weren't aware can get some closure

Shady behavior indeed, though it does show how many people were downloading said torrent and were curious enough to double click that executable.

FINALLY!
You know, it always boggles my mind on how many people just click **** without knowing ANYTHING about what it is or does or even follow up with it after clicking to see what it did! If people ever woke up, I guess tech support would be gone forever, lol

Glad they're finally gone. Freaking took long enough. I can't remember who from LR posted something on the F@H forums, but didn't they take that thread down a few days after?

I want to say they took down Stolli's thread a day or two later. Anyway, what's done is done. Glad they got what they deserved.
