Argonath RPG - A World of its own

Yesterday on forums took part an illegal connect on one of the accounts (boxfever10) with changing its profile/writing unban request with admitting "armour hacks"...
For illegal actions against our user was banned user Ben_Jizz from forums and server...
The information which came:
One of the SA:MP servers (closed already) spread the data file with the accounts of its registered users... So everyone who wanted could just get this file and use the passwords against its owners... Among those users were Argonath members... Ben_Jizz got the file from others and used the password of Boxfever10 on Argonath forums...
We want to pay your attentions to your passwords... If you register your account on other server do not use the same password... Also do not use the same password for forums and server... The owners of other servers can be just not honest to their users... Do not forget that most of them - the same teenagers, who have no idea about internet laws and etiquette... And think if they shut down their server they can spread all data on their users...
Note please, this is not the first time, when registered on other server Argonath user was "hacked" on our forums by simple dirty attitude of the owners of servers who have access to your datas through their server files...
With this, please, those who use the same password on different servers - check it and change it to the different ones...
-
That's why I always use stupid passwords such as "spankmycrank" in other servers.
Pay attention guys and use simple passwords in other communities, in who's owners you are not certain. Many dishonorable people among the internet, you have to be careful, because we hold no responsibility if your password is hacked (having in mind it is your fault, not ours)...
-
Thanks for the heads up, Aragorn.
-
To be honest. .I use same password on my server. .So I'll changed my Argonath password soon. .Thanks by the way Aragorn.
-
This is important, thanks Aragorn, i usually use messed up Passwords too.
-
Same as Alsatian. At least here we know our leaders are there for us. :)
-
I just changed my passwords. Thanks for the warning Aragorn
-
I never trusted Ben Jizz ;) I tried to warn certain people but they ignored me.
-

They are where now? Holland? France(probably not)? Where?
God, I love the English language : ))
-
Going to change the passwords just in case..
-
RON, info for you on that server that Ben got info from. The GM/server files were stolen and leaked by someone working for the host. Many people downloaded it, which means that they have access to that info. I'm going to warn the server now.
-
righto....
Umm just a point.. Noob servers Who let passwords fly by them, can be charged, because ANY one of those passwords can probably get into the FBI/CIA/Federal Government Computer Data Base, Also into credit cards and Bank accounts.
So, Dont download them, you can get charged and arrested.
-
So which server leaked the account information?
-
servers really shoudl consider MD5 hash system
-
he also created 4 servers and tried to get some of his friends to joined i helped him a bit and i noticed he kept accessing files i did not know why though now i do he was a good friend to me but then he attacked a member of Gvardia (idc who it was could of been any 1 or gang/mafia member) witch almost led to Box getting kicked out i am glad i investigated
anyway i changed all my passwords
Thanks Aragorn
-
I can't believe Ben will do something like that...
Very disappointed and shame on him :poke:
lol @ his MSN's Name :hit:
Anyway, I "changed" my password :cool:
-
I have changed my password,Thanks again for the notification RON.
-
The person is banned... Why help him to post here... (Aragorn)
-
Hes not banned.. I messaged you yesterday about that.. he came ingame and Pm'D me and i went on msn to check it was him.
-
I have diffrent password on Argonath forum and server, diffrent on Steam,MSN,Skype,Forums,sites.. Everything :P i NEVER use same password on things, it happend that i had same password on MSN and Steam once, as fast someone manages to hack my Steam, then they took my MSN and changed all settings but.. Steam helped me to get it back, after that i allways have diffrent Passwords :P
-

That he is ban evading does not mean he is NOT banned... Just inform admins in game and they will ban him...
-
So which server leaked the account information?
I don't think the Owners would be happy If I said it here.
-
servers really shoudl consider MD5 hash system
Forget MD5, How about preset, dynamic , SecurID's? RSA do a good system.
-

MD5 is horrible
On ParUni I use Whirlpool to encrypt passwords. It has no known weaknesses.

This just shows how many bad, dishonest servers exist, Argonath RPG not being one. If you just decide to play on a server once, just to try it out or as a time waster, don't even bother creating a login on it. If you do create one, just make sure it is secure and don't put your personal details or other account details on it. Thanks RON.
-
We remind you once again - do not use the same passwords on different servers...
And to the talks like "Omg Ben Jizz hacked Argonath server" - stop spread the lie...
Argonath server was NOT hacked... And Ben Jizz is not the hacker... All he is using - the database of his own server where were invited Argonath members...
On future - if anyone will say "I hacked Argonath server" before running and panicing ask yourselves why were not hacked accounts of the main developers...
So please stop nodding to the kids that cannot be even whom they claim they are... ;)
-
Very true RON ;)
-
I actually find it ironic that the server that was leaked now has a certain person that Ron isn't too happy with.
-
Changing password, thank you for the head-up.
-
changing all my pass now!
thanks god i have Cpanel[by my sites] where someone can generate real heavy tought good passwords ;P
thanks for the heads up

The most ironic those "ima haxor" people who have no idea 2+2 result even...
For three years we saw enough hackors, mother hackoz, even daddy hackoz, friends famous hackoz, ima member of hackoz site and they will hacko ya, etc... So yeah boring sorry... People are still trying to gain some popularity by Argonath RPG...
-
yep that's right Ron.... for all those fools who believe they are hackers out there.... when they just say and don't it.... get a life.... you are not good at that... hackers just waste their time believing they will do a damage to someone..... even if they do... what's the point? if the owner has a back-up, he can just get the site back and up.... and (s)he can do this for many times.... as long the hacker keeps doing it.... so in the end... the hacker gets pissed off and just leaves.... saying (s)he will come back someday for something bigger, but this is just an excuse, cause they just cant believe that they got beated up... :lol: :lol:
what does not kill us, make us stronger... put that well in your mind.... you... the people who try to destroy Argonath, keep trying.... you will never make it... :rules: :rules:
:ps: Argonath's Flag will rise all the time... it will be all the time up... not down like you do want it ;)
Argonath RPG for life..! :)
-
Thanks for the heads up.I just changed my password and this is an advise for everyone!!!Change your passwords
I believe the same with Rock about hackers.They think they can beat us down but they are wrong...They need a life and probably a sport hobby or something like this...Thanks again for the warning
-
I don't want to sound ignorant but I don't feel the need to change MY password.
That's because I use a different one for every server ;)
-
I dont play on any other server so thats solved it for me
-
If I accidentaly goto play some other server than Argonath, I won't register :lol:
-
Yea, I never register unless I really feel it is worth registering.
-

But no other server is worth to register on ;)

Is that not only your own opinion? I doubt that a community with around a thousand players share the same point of view that you do.
And for them - this message applies!

I don't think you got what I meant, so I'll just spill it. The new server scripter is Andre9977; fates intertwine, eh?

Boxy, server I talked about was already down before I posted a topic... So according to your strange thoughts some Andre9977 is a new scripter on a closed server - good luck with that to him then, SA:MP needs more interesting closed servers...
If you are talking about some other server (which I suppose is correct) then I did the right action to warn people, as according to this position, there are already minimum two servers whos owners are trying to get Argonath members passwords through inviting them to register on their servers databases...
Anyways I have no idea what you are trying to show here...

Let me spell it out:
-Server got it's data leaked
-Server's scripter change and Andre9977 is the new one
-My account here gets hacked due to the other server
-So indirectly, you and Andre's servers' fate intertwined, which makes it kinda funny after his history...

I have no any links to any other servers... If some servers owners do try to get into Argonath admins accounts does not relate neither me nor Argonath to any other server... I am not a babysitter for them...
-
lol ridiculous..
I am not a babysitter...
Actually you are one... in kinda different meaning.. :)

I don't play on other servers than Argonath RPG and ParUni, And I can't anyways: LatinAmerica is routeblocked for life by SAMP, so I can't get access to Master Server List, SAMP Website & Forums -- So I won't be in risk :), Even if I could, I wouldnt :p
