Security warning

For anyone who has logged into redrum's shard with their regular username and password please PM me. He is using it only to get people's passwords.

NEVER under any circumstance log under someone else's server with your regular credentials.

Also if you've downloaded anything or logged in to anything that is on xeonlive.com scan your system and change your password. He is using his server to capture people's passwords and I would not trust anything else that may come from there.

Wow so that was him advertising his shard the other day?? I actually declined saying I was perfectly happy here....

Who would do that? I use a different screen name and password for every different shard I have tried....

You'd be surprised how many people don't realize what they do when they create passwords. A lot of times, password hacking is due to the user creating a very simple user/pass combination or re-using the same combination for different logins.

Well for my multiple accounts here I do have similar names and passwords but for a different server then there is no way I would use the same...
