I know my reply is late, sorry. Time goes by, been there and everywhere. We had blast every time we gathered to play, can’t really remember how this one went, but If this game is still alive we could plan about having re-reunion!

I used to log in back in the day with username reima_kostaja, which logged me in as playername -seke^Ronski, but now only way to get in is to log in as -seke^Ronski which logs me in as playername reima_kostaja :D 

I can't connect to servers though :(

Nope I found this and play. It really works! I loved this game. Its mostly 1-2 servers with people in it though. We need more people to know about this site.
It's not about the game, it's all about people playing the game. This community basically ruined it all.

We've used our own Discord server since those days and shared it already with 200 players - it works great :up:

If anyone needs help with Discord just let me know.

Ahh Ronski now chips in. Same garbage. Teddy said he would ban Merlin OK thats the point. Nothing you or teddy can do will change that FACT. Yes FACT. So take your little twist on the fact and stick it. Here some toilet paper you got some shit on your face. Clean it up and come back and talk when the smell is gone.
You are also another who was running Merlin down. Even IF he got something wrong He did more for the Game than you ever did.  You are in no position to even enter the debate. But you think your silly twist on the facts might work lol.  So mant clowns following Vegetas like flies round one of your shitty toilet papers  lol

Yall to funny
there's zero twist but you can take it like you want

and you are also the one who was quick to say you would ban Merlin for anything.

You said if he starts his bullshit you will ban him. That's a fact and that's the point I made.

Teddy wrote what you quoted when Merlin came up with faked proof about Possessed being behind attacks. That was the bs Teddy was referring to and if that would have continued it would have resulted a ban.

You should realise yourself how the quote differs with what you said, ban him for anything is like
Quote
Hey he used a roofbug once again, let's give him a lifetime ban!

but practically Teddy said
Quote
If he continues trying to make innocent people look guilty with faked proof he will be banned

With all due respect, Merlin, you start to sound like Mia or Ronski.
So that's the reason his post really made sense?

I've missed you too Pit<3

I will try to clear this up here. The ONLY way a stress test could affect a game server is if it is running on the computer that is running the AA server. That is it. So the person running the program would have to be on that server. This is not something a user can do on his own computer and affect some server somewhere.
This is NOT a security risk.

As for the calls for a ban. There will be no ban. Who you give access to your servers is completely up to you and if you get burned by it it's not up to use to hand out punishment for it.
Servers already crashed because of the action described above. If there's no security issue how someone was able to crash them just like that at the first place? I get it that you need to have privileges, you need to pay to get access to server files, and every action executed with privileges will leave a mark, so it all will be easily sorted out, but it doesn't remove the fact that crashing is still possible.

So as long as it's possible, I find it as an issue and if it's not a security issue then what is it?

I try to repeat, this is not a security issue. It works as designed! We would need separate vm's for each server/user to be sure or save. But this would cost much more to do so.
What is better? Having a bit trust in the server owners or pay more for save server?
I did prefer first way. And i do trust in server owners that they do not missuse it like Blei did (he was not even a server owner, 20 Euros was to much for him to pay). He only misused the trust i gave to him with login in to the account he hade while testing it (i did not canceled it, my fault).

If anyone others would like to run a server with protection, feel free to do so. I would be in for renting one.

Now i will not comment this further, i know what it was and it will not come up again. and yes, blei will be banned on swiss for sure, maybe other server owners will follow. Not my deal.
So because you can crash the whole service like that (because it works like designed), it's a feature - not a security issue? If the feature is no security issue, is handing an account a security issue then, because with privileges you can abuse the feature? :) How ever I agree that abusing the feature should result a ban to datacenter, but hypothetically speaking - was installing other software to server forbidden in ToS? Just saying for some people you have to put everything straight, otherwise you will end up screwed lol


Anyway I think it's good that this kind of feature is now known, but it feels like there's something else between you two than just this, otherwise this thread wouldn't exist :)

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.
Cpt.Blei brought up one big ass security hole imo. Similar usage leaves a mark and can easily be spotted afterwards but it's still possible - therefore anyone with privileges can cause same or even worse. I honestly don't know but I guess his actions weren't meant to be harmful, if it was just a test and a reminder that even this kind of arrangement isn't flawless? I personally never gave a thought if you could stress a datacenter like that by installing a software on it to crash it all, clearly someone else have been wondering about it and there's no other way to be sure about it than give it a try, if it works it's a serious risk and needs to be taken care of, if it doesn't work then there's no need to worry. Clearly this method kills the whole service so it's a security hole. Have I missed something very obvious or why I think we should actually thank Blei for figuring this one out than wondering should he be banned or not?

Is there a way to prevent this happening again? Could you simply block file edit permissions from users and add exceptions to .ini- etc game files that needs to be edited personally?

Speaking of stats, does Battletracker own the data or is Battletracker just a 3rd party site to display it all? If so, then stats wont be gone forever even if Battletracker comes to its end, it would be just a matter of time to build another site which would do the same interaction

Well, I can just see how this is gonna turn out :
As Battletracker is working now for a few months the whole issue will be forgotten
and only be tackled once BT is completely down.
Eliz doesn't answer and noone else seems to give a shit about the tracking which I
don't quite believe.
Perhaps Battletracker works for your interest, but the biggest issue is still there, you can't register a new player nor handle player info. There's people working on their free time to get this issue solved.

I could name you quite a few players who love the stats.
We all could name bunch of people who care only about their own stats, for these people lack of possibility to register a new player is not an issue at all

What about all the brilliant webdesigners that have been bragging in here about their talents.
Can't you design a new page? I am sure the community would pay for it.
It's not about designing stuff, it's a lot more than that. Also the design doesn't matter at this point, the most important thing is to get profiles editable again, you need to have access to database which contains tons of personal information and you need to have all the knowhow for handling it. It's not that simple as you think.

Anyway I am just worried that all the Information disappears and all the history of years of playing
is gonna be lost.
Please keep us updated about any progress in this matter

Thank you
Lord-of-War  :style:
Are you afraid that your stats will be gone? It's been said several times that it's not the first priority to get stats working with the new solution, then again it's also been said that EliZ has made everything ready for time like this, you just need to be patient and let these people work when they have time, it's not a one hour job or like they could spend 24/7 their time to get things working.

As for Eliz, I sent him an email 2 days ago and have heard nothing from him.
Does anyone have him on Steam - in case the email he used to use wouldn't be in active use anymore?
