i dont understand how its hersey either.. look at the ips match the login ip to another account not linked to the OPs ee how many attempts he was unsuccessful with so that you will know if he was just guessing or if it was something else.... 30 minutes tops thats all it takes... i suppose the moving dead bodies behind walls glitch to get into houses is fair game too then? because that is alot less bogus than giving people free reign to steal accounts

Its simple, dont have an easy password:
easy = 123,abc, abc123
difficult = Off to see the Wizard = 0ff2c7h3w1z412d

If someone guesses your account name, shame on you.
If they guess your password, hats off to them.

This is almost as bad as asking for handouts. You should probably go back to your land of carebears, your kind doesnt belong here. obv.

Password <newPassword> <repeatPassword>
Changes the password of the commanding players account.
Requires the same C-class IP address as the account's creator for an immediate change.
If the account IP differs, and the account is registered, the password change will be verified by sending a code to the registered email address.
If the account is unregistered, and there is not an IP match, the request will be forwarded to staff, who will likely ask you to register your account.

I already addressed our stance regarding this:

Beyond this, any other access to an account is outside of our control.

Kaivan wrote:Using that as an example, if someone ends up getting a keylogger on their system for some reason, there is little way to prove that you had your password taken by a keylogger. As a player, you may claim that it was a keylogger, but the results are indistinguishable from giving your account password to another person.

This house was under my Sanka account. I logged in once or twice a week to refresh as I am busy with work.

I think that since we do not use encryption there is a possibility that some one stole my account.

I want to a list of IP addresses that my accounts used over the last 2 months. perhaps someone even unlikey that I know in irl is griefing me.

Can I get that list????
