What do you think will happen to mapleSEA?

A good read for those who are following this case:

http://maple-news.com/2008/09/14/maplesea-vs-china/

It appears that Asiasoft's presumed 'strengthened security' is either insufficient or that the Chinese hackers are just too good to counter; people are getting hacked again non-stop, even after the official statement from Asiasoft.

This issue is becoming a nationwide matter - having a 1 page feature on this in the daily news is not a good thing for AS indeed.

That blog post contains some rather outdated info (August 6). You can read the original thread on the MapleSEA forum here: http://forums.playpark.net/showthread.php?t=461091

The situation has since then changed -- the announcement regarding AsiaSoft's investigation and security upgrades came much later (Sept 12). http://forums.playpark.net/showthread.php?t=485850

A MapleSEA forum staff mentioned that the upgrades seem to have managed to stop the attacks, for now (Sept 13). http://forums.playpark.net/showpost.php?...tcount=222

They could probably hold special events that make the user wanna play again or just try to release better content. (And reset the accounts of the hacked user, if that's possible?)

Yes I am aware of the measures which Asiasoft has presumably taken up. You must first realise that I am a member of MSEA and things are not exactly turning for the better at the moment in our server; I still witness people's accounts getting stripped off per se.

Still, I am unsure if every isolated case is a truthful account cos I myself is not a victim of this saga.
