    Insane lack of security

    This company has absolutly no security for your game or your account, mine was stolen and my account was emptied, their responce was that they have no character backups, so I'm SOL.

    There is nothing to prevent anyone from changing your passwords, no email is sent out until after this is done, no verification is required. Anyone can go in at any time use a password cracker and empty your account.

    Everything I worked for is gone and all they offered me was a few token pieces of trash, I'm sure I was hacked because I had posted in this forum. I wont be playing any more because why should I bother, some asswipe will just steal it all again, wont you asswipe?

    I'm also sure the GM will lock this and then hide it away with their pasted responce of "people leave the community" to you I say, Go choke on your copy and paste.

    it's your fault you got hacked in the first place. this is the first post i've seen where someone has been hacked. if Trion's security really was as bad as you say wouldnt there be constant threads about it? just sayin

    i was going to ask for your stuff since you won't be playing anymore.... but some asswipe beat me to it lolol

    i'll go with sarcastic jerkface. don't get me wrong it sucks to get hacked but in 99.9% of cases it's the users fault so it's tough to feel bad....

    How would it be his fault?

    Bad password?

    Am I the only one that's simply amused by the fact that " asswipe " isn't censored?

    He got hacked.

    Trion has an insane lack in security.

    Flawless logic.

    Bad/Easy to guess username/password
    Clicks on anything and everything to get a keylogger
    Falls for stupid phishing scams

    I'm not saying this is what the TC did, but this is normally how people get "hacked"

    obviously i can only speculate, but usually it's from using the same email address and password to log into an illegitimate website of some sort. they log your info and use it to gain access to stuff, in this case their defiance account.
