tom_newton Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 Glad they found a home We still have a wodge left here if anyone wants some.
tom_newton Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 OK Craig, i'll see if i can find a tube/box thingy for them 1
Friez Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 In this place you'dd need to smother the walls with them, change the desktop wallpaper, install customised ceiling tiles, a new carpet and even have speakers repeating the message over and over again, and you still would have people do something stupid and STILL use the excuse 'but nobody told me!'.
Edu-IT Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 OK Craig, i'll see if i can find a tube/box thingy for them Time to get creative again Tom! Edu-Tech... what was going through your mind when you did that? It would look better if you spaced them out evenly.
ICT_GUY Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 Since staff have been giving their login details to kids, can I have one please.

ICT_GUY Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 You will end up reading the information to them, you do realise that? Yes I know, hitting them hard around the head with my security plus book.
Gatt Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 You will end up reading the information to them, you do realise that? I'm gonna end up reading "The Riot Act" to them shortly
ninjabeaver Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 How about posting a decent scan of one so we can print a few out and use them in rooms, corridors, toilets etc. if thats possible? Anyone got an A3 scanner.

EduTech Posted June 11, 2008 Author Posted June 11, 2008 I used those few that i had to give to a few schools round by me.. came in handy. but realisticly i doubt people will actually do what the posters state. I have my wall's back now lol.. was board one day and just saw them sitting there so i thought might be a bit of fun.. Whers Gav does he post on here lol.. still want to know he is ok haha! Well if anything it made my parents make there passwords more secure lol.. James.
Snuffkins Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 I can print off enough to wallpaper our labs . Maybe we'll stop having to reset so many passwords? Or not ...
Edu-IT Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 I can print off enough to wallpaper our labs . Maybe we'll stop having to reset so many passwords? Or not ... I had to laugh because the password generator tool URL that is advertised on the posters is actually blocked by EMBC! Brilliant that.

Ok Gav does comes on here but just awkward sod who refuses to post I know how to get him to post... One thing about Gav is he can't handle his drink.... Right expect post from him any minute Russ
john Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 2hrs later and no post from the Mr illusive?! Did he actually return alive to work Tom?
EduTech Posted June 11, 2008 Author Posted June 11, 2008 Well thats what i am wondering, last i heard is he was at the hotel and never woke up before we all left. i think that night messed him up lol.. never gonna forget it hehe Maybe this will get him on here to post. "did you all know that Gav got dressed in a skirt and got asked to go off with some girl. also some teengers were asking him for a bit if you get what i mean lol " James.

tom_newton Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Thanks for posting the link Tonyd - all our resident edugeek posters (me & robf) were out yesterday afternoon! As for Gav and not posting - i'll make sure he knows someone is making remarks about his inability to hold his pop.... you're right, that might get him to post, even though i think deep down he's scared of us technical folk ;-P Looks like we are going to have to do another print run soon. Hope to add another poster to the lineup in the next month or 2. Finally... password generator is actually a simple bit of JavaScript I wanged together in an afternoon. It produces vaguely decent passwords, with some predictable aspects which is a trade-off to try and make them more pronounceable. If anyone wants the code i can attach it somewhere, would be easy to add to an intranet page etc... and any feedback/improvements welcome. There are some other really good (produced in > 1 afternoon ) passgens out there.. i will see if i can find links to em.
