Password Protection

xAndrewx · #1 10-20-2007, 12:10 AM

Well, just that bit extra.

New command: - '/protectaccount'

You can now lock your account with a password. Please, remember this password, as local staff won't reset it. Only global staff will. This will prevent people you don't want logging on to your account. There's not going to be a password change, so make sure that only you know the password. You'll also see a private message from the NPC server once you've chosen your password. Please, keep this safe.

Passwords are also locked to local staff, here's my password
clientr.password=0e10d2a4dfce0c27f7361de2544c289e

Here's a screenshot

A nice system, but it seems like it is extraneous...

If you want to prevent people from logging on to your account, just don't let anyone know your account password.

Hackers, alot of reports of people logging on to accounts and dropping items. This will prevent that.

So your password is "snk"?

xAndrewx · #6 10-20-2007, 10:10 PM

You used an md5 cracker. However, no staff can view it

So by creating this you practically say it's legal to share account's.

So people can't jack your items by knowing the password to your Graal account.

He will probably counter with the "what about pc id protection" question. Well, there are some peeps who have ****s as brothers/sisters who randomly log into your acc and abuse it. Yesh, I already made that experience.

If someone else has the password to your account, it's either account sharing, or that you have a bro or sis. Whom should not be able to log in anyway. If you have a secured graal client. Or your just stuipid in my opinion. (If you give out your password that is).

So I don't really think a thing like this is necissary. Alteast it wouldn't be on the top of my priority list when it comes to Era. Like expanding the gmap.

Accounts are hackable/scammable/phishable. That has been proven several times in the past, even if the "victim" has a very secure computer, and is not dumb.
