did he actually think nobody would notice the wins, I don't get what he was trying to accomplish.

What are you excepting from someone who ask us to forget gow and focus on hacking paintball.

He is actually a rookie, he found a hole and creamed his panies. It's obvious he had no clue what he was doing. He didn't even hide his identity, or VPN, how stupid.... good thing this is just a game server or the feds would of got his ass 2 seconds after he clicked connect on the bot with the game names.

Hes been PMING people like crazy for info. I'm not suprised if hes not alone after the PM I received from him shows his knowledge level is low.

It is shocking that he would even do something like this but then try to blame others so that he could clear his name? That is just low...this guy has no moral character what so ever.

I should post his email correspondence. This guy is a sociopath.

So to sum things up its all mousetopher's fault.

Well, it's not like I put the guy up to it. :P But partially my fault for sure.

Hahahha I knew it sorry about your server mousey. He did inject with game name.

Yeah. :c He used a completely different sort of exploit on war2.me though, no winbotting involved.

im saying removing the condemned's ability for a response is what authoritharian unilateral people do. and it serves no purpose other than fill the persons ego.

I sort of agree, but he doesn't need access to the forum to appeal, he's already contacted several people via email and other means.

Could be playing dumb. I don't get it either tbh, what he was trying to accomplish or why he'd bother denying it after the fact.
squeak!

Not sure if he ever mentioned forget gow...I think you meant expecting?

He also stole a few pball players names from what I hear so far as I am concerned this guy is no friend to anyone in the community.

Lightbringer- recently announced here abuse of the ladder and that several well-known accounts had been compromised. After looking into it this is what we believe happened:

- USA~Archer is responsible and most likely acted alone.
- He did not access the .ru database in any way. The winbotting/ladder abuse was most likely an attempt to do so.
- The passwords of the stolen accounts came from War2.me: he exploited the server database via an SQLi vulnerability in an open source ladder/stats script. (This is known for certain.) That allowed him to download the entire database and crack the password hashes, and then try the username/password combos on .ru to see if any were the same.
- So, only the accounts of people who registered on War2.me at some point AND used the same password both there and on .ru were vulnerable.

- USA~Archer has contacted a few people and denied that he had any part in this, but his story is very farfetched and impossible to verify. The most logical explanation is that Archer did everything himself, since it's known for a fact that he compromised war2.me. As of right now he's been permanently banned from forum & server.



I have made a post on Facebook to notify players to change their passwords if they have used the same password on war2.me that they use on en.war2.ru.  I have also posted a link to this forum post.

I should post his email correspondence. This guy is a sociopath.

do it, littel ryu, be useful for once in your life!



I'm curious to see this as well.

still don't see how would a unban be of any sort of offense to you or anyone in here.
(not my call anywway)

but if you're so reluctant with  templifting the forum ban,
care to share with the community whats this story of his that is very farfetched and impossible to verify.

p.s. this thread is called official explanation but ommits details (what were usaarcher true words? )

His true words were "...that he was trolling."

Well, he apologized to LB and said he could fix all of it, so theres one side of the "archer" story. Mousetopher and ryu can give us 2nd and 3rd perspective.

$10000000 people would have complained "lazy admins" did not ban him if he was not banned.  :D
This is the reason I ended it all.
