Any recent hacked accounts from Southperry users?
#54
Eosian Wrote:This part I don't entirely agree with - If you can't explicitly prove to Nexon what the problem is they're not very good at fixing it. They do almost zero investigation of their own, especially if you go through the ticket-monkeys. The Elemental Wands/Staves were broken for over a year because no one had taken the time to painstakingly detail the exact scenario Nexon wasn't testing so that they'd understand the gap.

If there is in fact an issue that's letting a significant portion of accounts be taken over it's somewhat necessary to identify the how just so Nexon can't easily blame user error and rubber stamp the tickets as self inflicted.

Assuming the fault is in their security, however are we going to prove it to them? "2546543653 of your users (click here for full list) who have never fallen for any of the common hacking schemes have been victimized, we believe it's your system that's pineappleing up, fix please?"
Apparently we cannot prove anything, whether a single user was magically hacked or, like Spidey suggested, was just too cowardly to acknowledge their own idiocy, not to say a thousand users and perhaps more. We may know it's true, but we cannot prove anything.
I'm proposing we do what we can and do it right now instead of goofing around complaining and worry others to no end. Compile a list, send it to them, update it every day along with any result this "discussion" may come to achieve.

If all discussions on the matter are curtailed, as some of you seem to prefer, then there is about zero chance that Nexon will ever do anything about it (which benefits only the hackers). If however through open discussion they realize that there is a real and widespread problem, and that people are worried enough about it that it might affect their spending, then Nexon might be moved to investigate.

No discussion leads to no positive change, yet this discussion isn't leading anywhere except convincing everyone that everyone else is getting buttraped without lube and they don't know why, which we already know from the get-go. That is why there needs to be a conclusion to these so-called discussions, which I don't see coming in a very long future. Frankly, we're just groping around in the dark without a hint of what we're looking for. I agree something needs to be done because this many people magically getting hacked is no joke, be it server exploit or users' amazing idiocy. But we're not doing crap here except arguing with one another whether or not this is worth "discussing." Just get to the goddamned point, YOU GOT HACKED? OKAY WELCOME ABOARD, PLEASE SIGN YOUR NAME HERE SO WE CAN TELL NEXON THEY'RE F'UCKING UP BIG TIME, AND OH BTW, YOU CAN STOP WITH THE QQING BECAUSE EVERYONE HERE SHARES THE SAME FATE, WELL, AT LEAST THEY CLAIM SO.

Oh wait, I guess that isn't a real problem either. Just a lot of people with crappy computers and internet being delusional.
DC hacking isn't even slightly similar to a server database security breach on any level, or a huge bunch of idiotic people. Pardon me, unless proven otherwise, I will continue to believe that both possibilities are, well, possible.
