    Default Failed log in attempt

    Hi all,

    With this message I'd like to address the moderators more specifically. I just received an e-mail informing me that someone (or maybe a bot, I'm not sure) tried to log in using my account. I know it wasn't me since I haven't been here for some time.
    I did get an IP log, and at least the server could be traced back to Opelika, Alabama, USA.

    I just wanted to give you a heads up that someone might be trying some shady stuff. I'm always able to give the exact IP information, to moderators only as to per discretion.

    Just a heads up,

    Jerry

    I'll forward this to the team to make sure all the mods/devs see it. Thanks for the heads up.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Yeah there are bad people who try to break in people's accounts for whatever reasons. SRP is very secure and part of the security is these notifications when the system detects several failed attempts to log in along with a block on the IP address where those failures originate.

    These have usually been usually from China not from USA, but lately we have also had increased trolling from well known entities, so it is possible it's the latest campaign against us.

    As long as people use passwords that are hard for others to guess within few tries their accounts are secure.

    Also all passwords are stored in strongly encrypted form, so there is no way for anybody to obtain a password from SRP.

    Thanks both for your effort and explanation.
    Gugi, if this person's IP address could be of any use whatsoever, don't hesitate to contact me.

    Good night everyone.

    Default Inappropriate PM from mrcpu

    Got a spam email:

    Name:  Screen Shot 2015-02-23 at 2.48.21 PM.jpg
Views: 108
Size:  40.0 KB

    Wonder if this guy is being smart writing his own Banned User title? I wonder as the green light next to his name would implies that he's in his account.

    Don't know?


    Male Potency! Bah!! I don't need no more stinking kids LOL!!
