Stolen Account
« on: August 9, 2003 09:49 am CDT »
Yeah that fake server was made to collect our passwords, I now have no items of any value in my storage or on my body, and I have lost all of my money.

Is there anything that can be done? Perhaps an IP check or something? I've been playing from 2 different houses today, but if there's a 3rd IP then that is them. And can I get some $ or items back?

Do you guys want me to make a small launcher?  It'll check with an update server to get the latest address, etc. and will only launch TRPG to the real server.  That sort of utility could be made rather easily.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

So the guy that did this had an IP of 24.130.38.139:28001. any way we could figure out who this is? I can get all my stuff back, but I just wish something could be done about that unsavory woman.

thats one of the things i was really annoyed by with deus's scripts, i would have figured for him to use some of the more unknown methods of running his scripts....

Code: [Select]
function DeusRPG::FetchData(%dataname)
{
if(String::findSubStr($ServerMod, "rpg") != -1)
{
RPGfetchData(%dataname);
return $RPGdata[%dataname];
}
}


which would completely remove the RPGfetchData spam in non-TRPG server console lines.... and if done right, he could have made most of the scripts just shut off or stop working with something of the same fashion...

but what the fork do i know, i am just some idiot.

TRPG used to have a auto-launcher...

Ahh the days.

i'll help you with it, as i know where there are a few errors and a few ideas i could help you with...  thats really the only reason i never used your pack, because after finding 2 coding errors and the annoyance of the -mod RPG... i just said no to it... no offense or anything, but theres a lot of stuff i didnt exactly find "helping" in the pack, but rather more of an annoyance.
