The LR Database and Your Password

? Offline

I just want to make this very clear to all of you that come here.

Certain people have a copy of the old Lancers Reactor DB, and your password if it is the same as the old Lancers Reactor Database, IS AT RISK.

So, I suggest to you all, that if you still use the same password, you change it and quickly.

I think you should add that your password at the old TLR database wasn’t stored in an encrypted format… it was plain text.

So it can be read, as easy as reading this.

Correct Chips it was, but I feel a warning to the community is in order.

Additionally you should be aware that your passwords in the temp-tlr forums that went down this week are also at risk.

I confirm the clear text format for passwords on the DB.

Everyone in all the servers knows about this?

Worfeh

No, thats why we posted it here.
Than again, i think we are the only ones who have a workable database atm, the rest have problems opening it.

Well, I gave it up with Lancer’s, can’t stand the atmosphere and the two main heads in the background.

Didn’t bother to register for the 1001th time.

I found out that you even have to register to access the downloads, I think we should spread the word that ppl can just help themselves here without needing to register.

capital idea ^^

Aye, please do help us to spread the word… I am sure we can arrange for Cheesy boy to post you some of his favourite snack food as a gift in return?

Careful how you do spread the word. It seems a few servers and ‘prominent’ figures in the community are not happy with the idea of people NOT using TLR and using other sites instead. I just dont want people getting an ear full on our behalf is all.

Great, plain text passwords. Music to my ears. Go database! XD

Agreed with spreading the word. Personally, I like the general vibe here much better, and the forums don’t use bizzare frames like the LR ones did that made copying a forum link impossible. =P

I reged at lancer Reactor when no help was offered to a player/modder and when someone put a link up to help him then they distorted the link “spamport”

Modding community maybe in the past but not now.

Chips

Just use an alternative to putting the link up… url in an image?

Their forum software may convert html numbers into text as well, at which point this:

http://the-starport.net

would be this:
http://the-starport.net

Works on my forum, but there is one drawback… you go to edit, it appears as normal regular characters, so completing the edit will result with a link that’s then obfuscated.

cheeseontoast

lol, that would be funny to look at ^^

and i liek that word… “obfuscated” has an odd ring to it XD
