 		[QUESTION] Whois info
Im not sure if this is OK or not as I have been yelled at for "breaking rules" and i don't want to........ Embarassed I did some snooping for info on Domainsbyproxy.com and found out that the perplex city connected websites (specificaly Ceretin) are registered to mindcandydesign.com

the site requires a username and password to get in but I only ran a few VERY obvious ideas through. They also have a public site at mindcandy.com

Is this considered "hacking"? I dont want to be yelled at so tell me befor I post in the main section. Sorry for the trouble, I'm new to ARGs, I got involved at the end of Metacortechs, and just started using this site.

Any help?

[EDIT: topic, tag. yanka.]

 		This certainly doesn't look in-game. Especially because you obtained it by domainsbyproxy.com. So far, all of the in-game sites we've seen (including those domain names we obtained through WHOIS) include "Perplex City", so I would guess that this area is hands-off. There's nothing linking us there, so it's kind of a leap of faith. If we are meant to get to mindcandydesigns.com, I'm sure we'll be pointed there through story or puzzle.

Just my thoughts...

 		EDIT: I'm changing my mind - after several failed attempts to find a trace from ceretin to them, I'm worried that whatever it is you did to find it might have been pushing it. Therefore, let's leave it alone. I'll lock this now.
