Couldn't have said it better myself


And just to put in a word, let's give a break to yersinia. Just his/her first thread and already in the red and negative feedback ... OK, maybe this wasn't the best topic to discuss, considering the FIRST ethics behind this, but I think most of us understand that this is impossible in the given time, but even if we had enough time to make it possible, sure, there would be people who wouldn't mind and go ahead decrypting ... but the message people are trying to send here is that it's clearly wrong. I agree with this message, but I am also trying to say that yersinia, being a totally new member to CD, just started off on the wrong foot and we shouldn't push him/her down because of a "thoughtless" thread.

Instead of pushing yersinia down even more, I'll be the first one to say :
Welcome to Chief Delphi! (but no more thoughtless threads please! )

By, the way,
