DW loads really slow rn (tortard gone)

The purpose is if they can breach one account, they can try to get to an attached account (like if you log into DW using your Google account). Your DW account is not the end goal. Be on the safe side and change some of your passwords.

Is it legal to use big brother techniques to find them? Asking for a friend...

No, that's not legal.

 

Site didn't load in so i reckon it will stay like this for atleast the weekend. Oh well.

The fact that someone is trying to get people's information through doomworld is depressing, people like this need to get a life.

 

I would argue trying to break into anyone's account is high up there on the list of pettiest things to resort to in general.

 

But, yeah, a Doom forum, out of all things? Surprising to say the least. Considering how persistent the attacks have been, it makes me suspect there is a vendetta at play, perhaps former members of the community who got banned?

But if users here have their account passwords exposed, then the attackers can try those passwords on accounts in other websites where the email-password pair is the same.

 

I myself use the same email-password pair everywhere I go; I doubt there is anything interesting to be gotten out of me (I don't even have a credit card yet). Heck, I'd dare post my password here if I were just a tiny bit less sane, even just a pinch.

If that is true, then it's probably the type that gets banned after saying heinous shit, then wonders why they got banned.

To be fair, alot of people use the copypaste password method, i'd say some people are in the clear, i'd recommend using a long and strange password, something that the hacker would never think of.

I use a password manager myself. Makes things a lot easier.

 

Just generate a random password, and as long as I can remember the vault password (which I can), I don't need to worry about what the heck my password is.

 

If a site gets breached, I just change the password. No two sites wind up linked.

Dead slow and there have been multiple attempts to access my account.

Same here. I just woke up to multiple emails stating someone was trying to access my account.

Hilarious.

Is there something wrong with me telling jokes?  I really don’t want to start an argument, but I don’t understand why you’re being sarcastic. I just make jokes to keep things calm ( even dad jokes.. and whatever in the seven realms my jokes quality as)

Oh, don't mind him too much. Just think of @Redneckerz as the foil who cannot help but highlight illogical consistencies. I think nearly every forum has at least one poster like that.

Off the cuff this has been dealt with in private.

Doomguy2000 up his antics again. :P

2K is definitely... a character and a half...

 

 

Spoiler

Unrelated note, despite me liking trollwads, after playing some of his work, I can't say that they're my favorite, idk probably just a bias or preferring stuff like UACMN.
