Should the PWA Administrator not be concerned by the fact that some accounts have had their password and email changed for no apparent reason?

On a similar note I discovered an exploit that could cause chaos if knowledge of it got in to the wrong hands. Carlito was hesitant to put this to the test at first, and his initial response to seeing it work was "it's probably because Classic is an old server".

After showing this work on Testbed, I later found a similar exploit with potentially even worse consequences for Graal (globally), but he had neglected to put it to the test after 2 acknowledged offers. With many staff accounts being compromised in the last few months resolving this should be seen as a matter of urgency.

I've stood by and kept quiet about certain things for a while, but I have to say that Graal is sorely lacking leadership.

Please unban my account and my brother's account we have done nothing wrong. Also can you unblock my IP cause I can't even open the game without the screen going full black.
If you sent me a email I would of replied shortly. If so send it again and I can get it to someone that can help you since I don't deal with anything accounts related.

vicious cycle
Accounts was never hacked on the support center. Only thing that was leaked was your registered email you put in and the account name. Your graal password was not linked to toonslab.

I contacted Carlito and he told me that he would look into it. When he stopped replying to me and I asked if he was able to help me, he replies: "I'm not accounts administratyor and you know that."

Looks like I'm not getting my accounts back.
I didn't mean I wasn't going to help you, since I don't do this stuff directly it takes time.

Actually, the support center WAS hacked back in 2006? Maybe later. There were a few people I knew that had their account passwords decrypted and was hacked to be reset. I know the passwords were encrypted.

And you are correct, the previous support center used your graal credentials to log in. The newerish support center did not.

I never had the leak but I recall the previous Support Center either storing passwords as plain text or being easy to decrypt.

It didn't use your Graal credentials either,otherwise how would've people who'd lost their Graal password been able to use it? It was more a phishing issue than anything else.

Thor you have know idea what your talking about. I don't get why you continuously poke at certain subjects, we get it you want attention. However the previous setup was linked to your forums account, in game account, wiki and support. When the old support center got hacked. It gave them access to all above so the method was changed. Your in game account, your wiki account and forums account are one of the same, while your support account uses there own credential system. I'm not argueing with you regarding the plain text arguement as that could be true.

It happens to be the first time I've spoken on this subject, but now you mention it this is a subject which keeps re-arising for some reason.

A very poor attempt to stifle some valid argument. You should know better.

How would players who lost access to their Graal account access the support center then?

Incorrect. It was only 14 months ago where someone gained access to an ex staff member's forum account due to the forums being synchronised with the accounts database. Do you not remember? It would explain a lot.

I promise you my sir, I have sent you 12 emails in the span of 2 weeks and all of them I have gotten nothing from you. I will try to send you another email.

I tried to edit my post, wiki, forums and player account use the same credentials.

When did the PWA stop helping people in recovering accounts? If they have, I feel like people should know who to contact directly if not you.
