Hacking / Breach Of TOS

serg · 10-15-2007, 01:39 PM

We are aware of the current issues with certain players using third-party software to "hack" the game. We take this situation very seriously and will ban any member caught using these methods.

A fix is currently in the works to prevent this type of exploit and we will have it out ASAP.

Anyone caught posting links or instructions detailing these methods will also be banned.

Using these exploits goes against the competitive spirit of the game and ruins the experience for the vast majority of players who play the game fairly.

Please read the Terms of Service for more details.

Jeffery · 10-15-2007, 01:42 PM

Is it still ok if I hack up a lung occasionally???

serg · 10-15-2007, 01:59 PM

That should be ok Jeffery

but you might want to go get that looked at

endless · 10-15-2007, 02:36 PM

You didn't do anything last time.. what makes this time any different?

pils · 10-15-2007, 02:51 PM

So I take it the admin here can't do anything about it, correct?
We need Seed to fix it?

death rico · 10-15-2007, 02:56 PM

thanks serg

Wizzy` · 10-15-2007, 04:00 PM

How about we get an actual ex-hacker of TAO to do it?

Realist, can you help us?

steve12 · 10-15-2007, 04:32 PM

Cool, we have security.

killer24442 · 10-15-2007, 04:34 PM

Can they Get sued for hacking into TAO like that?

The Prophet · 10-15-2007, 05:11 PM

If Seed is fixing it, tell him to return my emails

Undecided · 10-15-2007, 05:41 PM

I'm assuming this will be fixed on digis, as well as boosting, afk cheating, and any other sort of cheats that are available.

FYI Serg, banning people won't do anything.

AFK?
Away from keyboard cheating?

How do you do that?

Lord Sesshomaru · 10-15-2007, 06:01 PM

About time. TAO has been hacked in the past and it will happen again. But it's good to see that something is finally being done about it.
