mail your IP and I can tell you.


you all use AOL, don't you? ;)

the problem: AOL gives out *one* IP to *hundreds* of users.... so, if *one* user there tries to hack an account and gets banned, *hundreds* of users from that line (there might be a few other players of SL along) get banned too.

Only two options:

a) allow "password guessing"
b) block it and block potentially innocent people along

currently, I favor b) as there have been successful attempts (loginname==password and such funny things)

I found easy way to fix the problem, I just close aol and restart it, it then lets me on the game then :D

Well that person had to have told someone or it was a friend who had an idea of what it would be, I don't see how someone who doesn't know you could guess your password, say my password is School how many people would say I have it the password is school and if you password somthing that stupid wow

I write a script that guesses 1000 passwords per 10 seconds.

no big deal.

after logged in, I know it. I will simply store and entire dictionary.

and there you go.

If anybody tries that hard for an account on a game like this they deserve to have it, I wouldn't even be mad

You wouldn't... But others who spent more of their lives in their accounts will...
People could lose their accounts that way  :roll:

How about our username is not the same as our character name. Makes it harder to force hack. And don't use actual words from the dictionary for passwords...

well, that should be normal for passwords :-/

but 90% of the users here, I can assure you, have more than dictionary words in non-capital letters as passwords...

I think some might get mad and quit all together, if they get mad enough about their account being banned.
