Use of Scripts

Detective:
Note that use of scripts is allowed and even encouraged on SOME challenges.
Scripts are intended for challenges marked:
Scripts are permitted, but not necessary for challenges marked:
Scripts are NOT permitted for challenges marked:

Under no circumstances should any script be used to bruteforce the solution form or URL or ANYTHING on the server, even if the challenge shows a green icon. This will result in an immediate ban. Script != BruteForce
If any user is found to be running scripts on a challenge with a red icon, this will result in investigation and may lead to a ban.

It is perfectly okay to download any code and run a script on your localhost. This may be useful for dictionary attack or bruteforce of javascript, applets, or anything else you see fit.

That is all.
