THQ visit these forums!

[IBBoard]

I've just looked at my logs for Skins@HWT and was shocked to see the host name (human-friendly name of the IP address) for one of my visitors was "thq.com"! They've visited 65 pages and spent 15 minutes on the site at half-six BST I wonder if it was some insider scoping the site out

Also interesting is that I've had a couple of visitors recently using the proxy server proton.mdc.ubisoft.com. Ubisoft staff checking out other publisher's games on their lunch breaks?

Maybe THQ wanted to see what a real WH40K skin should look like.

After the recent mini-uproar with the skin changes to Space Marines in 1.4, that could actually be true
Marines with perma-red eyes? Standard Blood Angels colour schemes giving huge green arrows on the side on the barracks? someone didn't think the change through as thoroughly as they could have

Ooouuhh! Talent scouts. Hurray! Oh wait...we just skin. Darn. Still though good eye on those logs there "HawkEye IBB". Very cool to get trolled by the creator.

They'll be going after you and Sandwich if they are tallent scouts

They've not hit again (although they did come from Hangar-8's banner site!), but that Ubisoft proxy server has been through three times (6th September, just after midnight on the 8th and around 8pm on the 8th). They do seem to have looked at most things, though - badges, banners, skins, the works
