Usually hackers are just a nuisance. Recently we had a couple hackers who exploited a bug in the core of our servers that would cause completely unplayable lag.

I am glad to announce the hackers causing this lag are gone and we have patched the core to make sure they can never exploit the issue again.

We will not be releasing details of the hack for security purposes.

The aforementioned hackers:
bucketmaster
grodantest

Props to HeXagon (myself), Cyph3r, and Devo on tracking down the exact exploit.

Thanks guys.

If it took you 2 days to deal with simple /who spam from 3G network, let's see what happens when I'm back from my trip

P.S. Your fix is really cheap, was waiting something better
P.S.S. Interesting user permissions on your box.. doesn't seem secure at all to me

secret fix...

As I said- very cheap fix

lol, u mad bro?

It is actually to your benefit that I released this to public. All random servers will lagg (people can't resist to try stuff like this) for next week or so before trinity even starts to think about pushing fix to their repo so they all can get fixed.

I got ur back homie

PS: HeXagon, pro fix on the /who.... JK, why don't you fix everything... i mean disable everything = profit

Well done !

[fakaras]

If it's the same bug that I though. Geez. Poor hackers watching YT videos how to lag the server. If it's the same the spammer of that macro also lags as hell and can't play. I saw few people doing it before but I couldn't prove it (screen shots of lagging peeps ) - probably video but my pc can't handle so much damage in the summer at 34C.

Silly kids. All you are doing is making us look good. The fix I put in is temporary. We take it to the next level by being able to find and fix stuff nobody else can.
