If he IS LulzSec, waterboard him for the names of other members, then shoot him.

Lulzsec = Invented by anonymous.
 
"Serious Organised Crime Agency"? Is there one for organized crime that isn't serious? Also, how can anyone take them seriously when they use crappy British English?

FYI all members of lulzsec are safe. ryan Clearly has little to do with lulzsec besides running irc.lulzsec.org. Media needs to fix story

How is it false? According to your post he is a member in so much as he handles their IRC. This just gives more credence to my OP...

reading comprehension fail much?

i am sorry you obviously care so much about your op, don't take it so bad it's not the end of the world

So he Clearly does have something to do with them

Get it... Clearly...
 
I don't know who Cleary is but that site that talks about him feels like it is exaggerating, 100 million users of PSN? Thought it was less..
 
I never said he was a hacker in the OP...

You didn't really comment at all in the OP, but the implication of the article was that he was a member of a group implicated in hacking attempts. They might as well arrest the CEOs of Verizon, and Comcast.
 
your op is very vague, you can claim all day you are right when in fact you are wrong

don't be so hard on yourself, it's just a discussion board

The claim I made in the OP is that the UK has possibly arrested a member of LulzSec, you posted a tweet from them confirming that, even though he isn't a highly valued member.

*slow clap*

We may have got one? Please tell how you were associated with the situation.

We, as in the UK.

The same way that football fans refer to themselves as "we" when they win a game.

I made the claim he was a member of LulzSec, the BBC asserted that he had been arrested for hacking. Both appear to be true at present, though they may not be related, that is all.

Running a server doesn't make you a member of anything; it's just running a server. He may or may not be sympathetic to lulzsec's cause, but that doesn't matter one way or the other.

He was involved, he was a participant. He's not an employee just following orders, he was an active participant with them, some, including myself would call that being an active member.

If you can't see the difference between running an irc server, and cracking foreign servers, I honestly don't know what to say....

I can see the difference, I absolutely can, one would make you the member that runs the server, and one would make you one of the big boys. Both members, different types of members.

hal jumped the gun in the OP title, he thought that it was a operational anonymous member.
