Yes, i did trust him, like i did trust you Ronski. You had exactly the same access as he had, but he also did misuse the trust of another friend. Because he did not have a folder to put in (i deleted it with the server on his account), he used the folder of his friend, who did run/rent also a server. And copied the executable on his desktop and did start it. So sad it is.
As you now do know the whole story, i will lock this topic. And i still trust in the most of you guys, for sure.

good job ladies

It was like KillaMan did say. There is no security whole, he did use a regular account to jump on the server where he did know the password. Then, in his own environment, he could - also normal - run this cpu stressing program. And we do not run a virtual machine on each account (would cost much more then 300 euros), therefore a 100% cpu load will block all accounts, servers and everything. It runs as designed. So he jumped on the server with a known account and password and did it.

And yes Wickid, everybody with an account on this server can do it. As you can stop and start your own server there (but only your own server, not others. But you can run a program - works as designed). This is the part of trust i did not understand... So he is banned now and can't do nothing more there.

First of it, I would like to thank you all because of supporting this nice game and its community. And no, it is not my game, I only try to help that it will not die soon. Behind this, it is very sad to see some players doing as much as they can to attack it and the fun of all of us. This all now is going to another chapter. And it is not easy – at least for me – to understand why.

The most of you do know that we had excessive distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks in the past – almost over one year. Because none of you did it before, I tried to find a solution against those attacks. And with the help of Possessed, I did try to find a datacenter which do protect servers against those DDoS attacks. After three unsuccessful tests with different datacenters, we did find a professional datacenter located at the Netherlands, which is doing the protection very good – but sadly not as cheap as we would like to have. The costs for this service is Euro 292.40 each month.

I tried my very best to show you all the concept to protect our servers as well as how to use this new service as a server owner. And I did know that one of the server owners, renting such a server, could be a possible attacker. During December, you all had the chance to test this new concept for free. And at this point, the sad new chapter starts.

[N.U.F.]Cpt.BLEI232 also tested one of those servers, letting me know that he would like to rent one of it to support this game and its community. And as every server owner do need an account to login, Cpt.BLEI232 also had one of those accounts - with the login name of "NUF". Since about three weeks, we could see that our new protected servers did – from time to time - react like they would have been attacked. But after searching through several log files, nothing did look like an attack - since yesterday.

As you can see, while using the links below, BLEI shamelessly used the confidence in him by installing a CPU stressing program, which he did run yesterday so hard, that all servers crashed!

I do not understand, why he did this to all of us. To the server owners, which do pay the 20 Euros each month, to the players and it's fun to play this game in peace. I do not understand why he shows us a face from a nice guy and in the back ground he is doing this accompanied with lies about others. Sad to see this kind of attack, misusing the trust in him. For sure I did now cancel his account, and sorry that I did it not earlier.

Here is the proof of it:
