Title: Hacker
Post by: Arandomperson on November 27, 2017, 09:24:31 pm

Ive noticed that close to maybe two months ago Age of Wishes, a warrior cat rp, was hacked and their group disbanded. No one knows who is was. Now later either last night or early this morning, Angered Skies, a warrior cat rp im staff in, was dis banned and and no one knows who did it. And none of of us staff would do that. So Feral Heart mods your long in page aint working so great now.

I'm going to move this to Game Help as this seems like more of a game issue rather than a discussion topic.

As for the problem, the login tab page shouldn't have anything to do with ingame groups disbanding. Is there by chance any more information that you have that we could go off of?

All I know is that it happens when no one from the group is online. Im not sure if we are being targeted on purpose. Or if this has happened to others.

Are you positive that no one of the group has shared their account with someone else?
Someone might have got a hold of your/a group member's password and might have disbanded the group.

Not sure if this is really much help but I've heard a few people say their groups have randomly been disbanded and heard that it's most likely a glitch and not a hacker. Now I'm not saying that it isn't, just saying another possibility on what it could be before we jump to such conclusions.

It would make some sense if it was a glitch, and no one from thee staff team would do that. We did have a person that was staff leave the rp and we got in a fight with them, bit it has been confirmed that it wasnt them.

I am the creator of Angered Skies and not only was the group disbanded but the password and email to the account were changed. and we no longer have access to the account.

Okay, I am starting with AoW's group hacking/glitch(?):

It may or not have been a staff, but for Age of Wishes, they had some suspicions, at least I did, that an old staff from their roleplay that left and now spreads a bunch of rumors about AoW might of caused this hacking, since they may have known the password for Age of Wishes' recruiter account.
I could have been a glitch, since it felt like it when the first time Angered Skies, AS, was disbanded.
We only assumed that FH had goofed up and left us crawling through mud to recreate our group and invite our members back,
only now that it has happened twice, I suspect, I think Angered Skies' staff may too, that there was a hacker involved.

I may not be helping here, but it is a bit of evidence that leads to finding who is hacking these groups. Someone once told me that they once hacked some group's recruiter account because they were scared of the creator of that group because they were very forceful, and I don't blame them. But as I do not come to know them any better, they could be a extending stage to find out this terrible mystery.

I have to add, this person I talked to also said that they hacked the rest of that group's main admin's accounts, leaving them in the dust, I think, because they were afraid. They were explaining this in party chat, and I may have misinterpreted something, but their response to fear is kind of... scary? Knowing a group was hacked, even if it was a very bad one with forceful staff, it is not nice.
This person is ex-staff of that roleplay, so that explains how they got the recruiter password, but it may extend to finding other accounts to if they are willing to do that to settle their fear or anger.

That makes sense because two of my other accounts were also logged into and whoever got into them changed my chars designs to neons.

IT could very well have been someone that has had access to those accounts as well. As for personal accounts, are you sure you didn't share any of your log in information with anyone?

I did not. The only account I ever shared the info for was the recruiting account. My boyfriend doesn't even know my info for my accounts.

GayEevee said they never shared their account info, expect for the rec's account which was used by staff. Not even GayEevee's boyfriend knows their account info.

If the recruiter password got into the wrong hands that could be the cause. Have any ex-staff had access to the recruiter account that may have been angered and shared the password with someone? This seems to be a matter that staff would need to look into... not much anyone else can do at this point.
I suggest creating a new account with an entirely new password for the character instead of using the one mentioned here. That would keep the exploiter out of it. I also recommend asking a staff member for further assistance on looking into this issue.
