Greetings SRFers.
As we all know, the recent discovery of a MASSIVE security flaw in JM's new website has caused countless accounts to be stolen in the past several days/weeks. We probably all know someone who was affected by it in one way or another.
In the past few days, there has been a flurry of discussion on this forum about this exploit, with many of our users claming that have hacked or were planning to hack accounts, whether to reclaim what was theirs or to steal others' accounts.
The rules of this forum clearly state that "hacking" (which has developed into a catch-all term for stealing accounts) is prohibited here, regardless of the reason behind it. If you choose to exploit JM's security and voilate their ToS, it is a risk you take on your OWN head, and SRF cannot and will not be held responsible for any punitive action that Joymax takes against you or your characters and accounts. SRF in no way endorses nor approves of the exploiting of security faults to gain access to accounts.
Hopefully Joymax takes from this incident a cue to tighten up their security and do a better job of protecting their users. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this turbulent time in the SRO and SRF communities.
-SG

@ SG
How about making one major topic named 'omg i got hacked' where people can write out their anger. This would prevent numerous future topics about people ranting they got hacked.

we cleaned out as many as possible.
all the topics that had tips to hacking in them were removed or edited.
some of us tried talking sense into the members but got completely ignored
and contradicted by them. it was when the one of the admins got online that
we got a clear answer to what to do with the topics.

Then a few months later they have another flaw that allows you to use any login without it's password to change the password. And somehow it was the users fault? BS joymax. Total BS.
Inconceivable i know,they totally refuse to give a damn,and completely neglect the necessity of even the slightest form of apology.
Major Fail right there.

What do Hackers hack your character or your account with money in it or both?

I was probably the first to be hacked in Olympus with this flaw, back in October right b4 GNGWC semi s in Cal. I flushed out the hacker by giving him time to think he got away with it. Guess what, I was accused by most you in forum of boting, visiting suspect websites, giving id away to frnds., etc etc. I mentioned in this forum back in October that there was an exploit, and yes the culprits have been located thru IP addresses. Guys, this is something very serious. DONT DO IT! I think you're all jumping the gun in pressumng JM will do nothing. Obviously for me, being the first hacked with this flaw, Im screwed, roll back wont help me. For recent, hacked accounts you maybe saved. JM will come thru, I just hope that they dont allow access to their programs to outside Co's (this is the only way this can happen as it did to Microsoft). JM is going to patch in order to ensure the safety and respect to its members that we deserve...Good luck, don't log into game until its fixed, you're at risk.

That its not the only exploit in the game.. You can actually send packets thru a game exploit, directly from the game from a character (the hacker) to the character you want to hack. This packet goes thru firewall as SRO is authorize by your firewall to internet access. The packet is hidden as a SRO file, so your Comp. uploads it, sends it back thru game to hacker, with all your login and PW info (yes ouch!!) So if you have the nice pixel stuff (SUN ONLY), you're going to be hacked. I started to Global this info in game, and GM (yes sometimes they're there) told me (yes in pink letters) to stop...The problems is being worked on and once its fixed every one thats been affected (and they know who is, and who is lying), will be compensated, in one way or another. So dont go out now and start pretending you're hacked, half the problem is fixed...Wish them well, and either quit playing or be patient, I'm waiting, iM A NOOB IN ANOTHER SERVER ROFL...peace

Your optimism is refreshing but misplaced. Joymax will do naught. World keep on turning game keep on rotting.

FFS , rev6 didnt not event this problem many other sites/fourms
Rev6 is the reson JoyMax fixed it, THE owner of the site contacted joymax and talked about the explooit
So dont go balaming Rev6 just because it was famous site for its serverstats
BLame (sites like) gamerplanet not rev6
and can i point out that GZP is spreading Bots, cracked bots which is breaching 2 compays policys, the bot company and JoyMax
(i got to much time on my hand)

Sounds like you have a plan with all nice bot arguments, etc etc., but one mishap, I NEVER BOT, EVER!!! I was the first one to be hacked back in October 13/14, stolen everything thru JM mainsite. So there...And I've I stated in other Posts, make a mule account no one knows, transfer your shit to it b4 you log off. Hackers still sending packets thru Game Guard, Game is not safe, and not sure it will ever be. As long as the're is an exploit, hackers will find it. Live with it or play elsewhere...
Peace
