So I heard a rumour bout a guy goin for the most hacked accounts.

There is a lis of 750k runescape names, two of my friend are on them.

 

So you believe it?

 

<I've seen this list numerous places - not on that - for the sake of people saying they feel they got something i'm removing this link even though it appears to be harmless, i'm going to let some techfriends look at it.. - Das - Admin who is also on the "list" *Shrugs*>

That's a list of people who might be hacked on 1/1/10

He/she plans do this on 1/1/10 <-omg (lol)

 

 

I dont believe it, but it might be because my name isn't on the list

My name has been on other lists like that before, not sure if they related to hacking or not. but my name is actually on that list. He must have some form of super-decoder to crack all those passwords in one day, unless he has been doing it for a long time previously.

 

750k accounts would be he would access just over 8 accounts a second for the whole 24h.

 

To be honest, i don't really get what he's doing, is he just saying he will access all 750k accounts on that day? if so i'm a large nay-sayer.

 

I remember the exact spot i last logged into runescape at, and the exact IP, so I will tell you new years day if it was a hoax or not.

I think it's a hoax. He/She put my name on there twice (zaaps1 and Zaaps1), who does that? :S

Cool story bro.

 

Honestly I can't see anything materializing out of this. It's nothing more than a scare tactic.

My main is on the list, but none of my other accounts? Weird stuff :s

And I don't know if i should change my pw or not, even tho I feel safe on this computer (which I use for all my accounts, while only my main is on the list?)

I think it's more of a scare tactic that can cause harmless "self-aware" of how insecure some people could be.

I read somewhere that jagex said:

We have heard about this from a number of sources and are investigating. Although this is just scaremongering designed to spread panic amongst the community, it never hurts to change your password to something more secure and update your recoveries Smile -Zapp

on it :D

 

 

I have that exact same feeling. I'm on it, and I'm fine with it. Bring it on?

 

 

But I will reitterate what was said by Jagex, it doesn't harm to change your password, recovery q's and bank pin regularly.

I'm on it, but I call bs.

But if I do get hacked, then he's getting like 2k worth of stuff, and giving me an excuse to quit.

At least I dropped my stuff on my own accord.

But I'm putting my cape and bat mask in the bank that night, just in case.

Each RuneScape server allows up to 2,000 players to log in simultaneously,[31] allowing a maximum capacity of more than 340,000 players.

 

So much for simultaneous logging in... 340,000 =/= 750,000

Why can't the Big Bang be done by the hand of God?

It could have, but it is next to impossible because it also could have been caused by the flying spaghetti monster, or one of the other infinite number of deity possibilities.

Now this would be quite something if it does happen :ohnoes:

 

I can only pray for others as neither my current nor my old name is on that list B) (gonna change my password anyway; was planning on doing it but now is the perfect time)

 

I also noticed a flaw in his list, one of my friends has her name on there twice.

Cbow! Cbow!!!!! +120 range is orgasmic. Or maul, thats what I'd get out of those two options.

I agree with baconisbacon, Cbow looks freaking sensual
