Anyone can brute force your account


How do they do that?

Can you blow up the people who stole account information?

Well, if you two stop there now it really looks mighty suspicious.* Should just go ahead and nuke the other side too to make it a fair game.

Also might give some people some trust back in your actions.


*Suspicious is probably the wrong word, but it makes it seem like some people are being favored even though both sides used the same kinds of exploits and abuses.

Nuke DIs too. It's only fair they have hacked abused hacked bruteforced passwords as much or maybe more than AD. Actually nuke the whole server. I very much doubt there is anything of worth left to save.

This looks like gato/rage scandal so I think you should treat it the same as that and blow up the people who stole the account information :)))

To be fair, I haven't seen this being done before, at least.

EDIT: To clarify, this was about the server DoS and nothing else.

I wouldn't mind that at all, but unfortunately I have no evidence for it. I've stopped a couple of brute-forcing attempts in the act, but they're always using proxies (or other kinds of non-related IP addresses), so I can't map it to any particular account.

Massachusetts: so and what can you say about stolen accountws?
loftar: I got a PM saying that there was a keylogging client.
