Empty PMs linked to hacking incident.

It's not just images.. Basically what they are doing is using an image, or any other file.. on ther website so that when you open a PM and it loads the file from there server.. they have our IP address and becasue of #a they have your account name.. they can match who is who..

you can safely do a read history before you open your pm's if your seriously paranoid about it.. images just happen to be the easiest way to accomplish it.

I think personally, it should be hard coded into graal to only allow images from the server your on because it helps people when selling items to show what they look like.


Someone correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it possible in GS2 to check pm's? I thought GK has a swear filter for that.. and if it is possible, a script could simply phrase for "<img" and warn user that a potential harm may be detected..?

Kingdoms uses the standard swearfilter to filter PMs. I don't think it's possible for scripts to view/modify PMs (for good reason, too). Privileged (login) scripts may be able to, but I don't think so. PMs are displayed using special GUI controls (not just standard GuiMLTextCtrls) which prohibit accessing or changing the displayed message.
