Silkroad Online Forums

dude, igamelegit .com is perfectly safe and legal... since its the official confed site lol, unless your being sarcastic then =/


But id be wary about Rev6, i made sure i put no links in my acc info other than the name gundamhealer and my sig, no passwords and users etc.

RIGHT ON!

I don't even let firefox save my passwords lol.
I always make a new email when signing up for forum...but I don't remember the pw for that email -,-

Password are encrypted into the database just like any other forum. If you use phpbb3, php-fusion, vbulletin and so many more... We can change the password but we can not retreve the password.

Rev6 should know this better than anyone.

EDIT: I hate people that freak out... igamelegit.com is stamped clean some of the people are from silkroadaddiction.com which is another clean site.

This man speaks the truth. The password is usually encrypted before it even leaves your computer.

This is a lie, as soon as you register, all the admins get PM'd with your E-mail / username / pass
and they all take turns cleaning out accounts.

Do you have proof to backup your theory?

The only way they can get your username or password is if it wasn't saved to an actual database. Most forums use (Mysql) Might wanna look it up...

most forum program(s) (PHPBB, PHP-FUSION, vBulletin, Simple Machines) etc... they all use mysql as the database your password is auto encrypted. As i said in my previous post.

Admins can get your email and username. They can also change your password but they can NOT recover your password.

But if you feel so unsecure then you already know what to do....

This topic should be moved to site discussion or locked.

He's right, create your own forum and try it...

i wouldnt trust them with a wooden nickle


btw the ass in OP's sig belongs to keyra augustina

nice sig

I usually use a different email when I sign up, but I try to use the same password because I have a really bad memory.

back in the older forum versions if someone got control of the database or mysql, they could easily crack your password, because they were encrypted in md5's. now a-days forum passwords are encrypted in md5 with salt (randomly set characters in the md5), which makes it almost impossible to crack. there are also other ways to further encrypt passwords besides salting it though.

letting firefox save your passwords is perfectly safe. not only are the cookies encrypted, but they are randomly placed so it's almost impossible to find.

and yes i am a nerd

any reason u cudnt say all that in 1 post

oh but thx for FF thng abt passwrds and cookies i didnt know that

As long as the passwort is stored as an MD5-Hash in the database, you are correct.
But there are a few lower quality forum software with store the password as plain text.

Unsalted MD5 is only weak for weak passwords. It really all comes down to how secure your password is, but considering how common passwords like '123456' are, it's really no surprise that people get hacked.

FACK!!! Now I gotta change my pw and the combination on my luggage...

uhm, I once hacked a gold bot account.
SRO account database is full of ID like "aaaaaa", "aaaaab", etc... and their pass are mostly 123456, 000000, 111111.
The one i hacked by lucky is aaaaaa with 123456 password i think

@SNAPPA change your sig dude,asses start to annoy me now..

imo people should have 3 passwords.
1 for things that doesnt really matter (forums)
1 for things that are somewhat important (Myspace, E-mail, Facebook)
1 for things that are ultra important (Gamimg accounts)

Of course if you have bank accounts or paypal account or stuff like that online their PW should be unique.
