Dont listen to the AQ qq thread.

There are always different sides to a story and aq cried about getting a few of their guys banned for exlploiting, then ''someone'' with high powers from their guild goes on a rampage deleting the keeps of the guilds that have participated in the siege and banning half of the people that helped take down their keep.

Discord Lead GameMaster   Join Date: Dec 2011 Rep Power: 15	Security Breach Dear Community SV’s security was breached for a short period of time yesterday, a member of the in game support team had their details used and the individuals then proceeded to destroy in game assets as well as make changes to the status of accounts.  This breach has now been closed and additional security is in place. Your private payment information was not breached. Indeed it is not possible even for SV to access this.  While we continue to gather evidence and look to our formal response to the individuals involved, it is important at this time that everyone to please check that their password is working as normal. If not please contact a member of the support team through a support ticket or on IRC.  As a reminder, it’s best to make your password a mix of numbers letters and upper/ lowercase caps eg: D1FfIculTPA55.  We are continuing to work through the logs and have completed many of the necessary repairs and restorations of assets but if you could please have patience as some of these are complex and time consuming.  Any questions, please feel free to contact a member of the in-game staff.  Thanks

 

 

I do not know if the person in question used the AQ seige as timing for this or it was an AQ member.  But this is why you do not have volunteer staff that play the same game they police.  Eventually they will get but hurt from an incident and destroy people's belongings.

From my understainding of the situation:

1. 
   Some AQ got banned for exploiting (I don't know if it was intentional or not).
2. 
   AQ as a whole got upset and decided to leave MO.
3. 
   Some AQ decided to intentinally use exploits becasue they were angry (using Yellow flagged characters and other things).
4. 
   Some AQ somehow got a GM's account details and caused havoc by deleting assets, banning accounts and other things as revenge.

It does show you how shit the game is sometimes when all you need to do is log on some trial accounts and you can crash people using various exploits that have been in the game for a long time.

One of the biggest turn off to me was the fact that admins participated in the game. Besides all of the horrible bugs.

Not only this but the game is coded so badly and security seems to be such a joke that the results are just what unfolded...

This forum has become one of the highlights of my day. So much drama and humor all rolled up into one.
