How to report possible hacking?

Post by Myrdyr »

There were two players on today causing problems, mostly spam-shouting and cursing in shouts. Tempus jumped in, so I hope it was all taken care of.

The players were demonstrating abilities that should be not be possible. Since this could be an exploit rather than a hack, I dont want to give details. I saw one of the builds in the login screen and saw the player in game. There's no way that build could have been doing what he was doing that I know of. Perhaps he found an exploit, but if so it's an extremely serious one.

So, if Tempus hadn't appeared, I was going to jump on to irc. If that failed, who should be messaged in such cases?

Aye, Tempus/Flailer's brought us up to speed on it and we're investigating it. Feel free to talk, of course, but if you know anything about it, we'd just ask you not mention names or specific exploits, as you've kindly avoided doing thusfar. Thanks!
