Re: Phishing site problem! Ive done this a few times myself Darkwolf and the new site has been subject to the same fate but I was looking here to see if theres anyway to stop them linking to my pages.

Re: Bandwidth Issues Theres 2 things im aware that can have mass effects of load and bandwidth. 1 is the images you use like already said here and the second is by the minority that use mass refreshers. These are in effect cheaters of the game as well as the ones that run your server into the ground after using mass resources. Put some sort of clicks per limit in place to protect from such abuse but as already stated her a new host maybe the only option.

Re: Phishing site problem! Im unsure if ive explained incorrectly in my first post. I run a dedicated server with a .co.uk domain linked to that server that runs my game. The site trying to duplicate my site to obtain password etc is using the free host .cc.

Re: Phishing site problem! I dont really see the point in your reply. I run a dedicated server.

Now from time to time ive had constant trouble with such sites being made and the negative impacts it has. Indeed you can report and get the site closed however with mass damage already caused. Is there some way to stop these such site extracting the content. Is there something im missing???? The phishing site login shows the following source. <html> <title>Cpanel - Powered by CO.CC</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <meta name="description" content="Sort the Game Out Chasnge Settings"> <meta name="keywords" content="None"> <meta name="distribution" content="global"> <meta name="revisit" content="10 days"> <meta name="revisit-after" content="10 days"> <meta name="resource-type" content="document"> <meta name="audience" content="all"> <meta NAME="rating" content="General"> <meta name="robots" content="all"> <meta name="robots" content="index,follow"> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.co.cc/img/favicon.ico" > <script language=javascript>if (top.frames.length > 0) top.location.replace(self.location);</script> <frameset rows="100%" frameborder=0 framespacing=0> <frame name=exist src=http://www.(mysite) frameborder=0 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0> </frameset> <noframes> <body> Sort the Game Out Chasnge Settings None <a href=http://www.co.cc>Cpanel</a> </body> </noframes> </html> Is there anything I can put on my site to reject this activity?? Many thx in advance for any help anyone can give.

Re: Hospital time bug FIX here! Im not here to debate on different ways to do the fix in question. Ive offered one method and a warning to all about the bug. Its upto the member who uses it to either use my way or to adapt it to there needs.

I was informed to a bug recently regarding hospital time. The basics are a member may go to hospital and if they have mass hospital time and wish to get it lowered they use the link attacklost.php along with any members ID and it will reduce them to that random hospital. A very good way to lower hospital time for free - EXP loss for cheating. Anyways to fix. Go to attack.php and find $youdata['hp']=0; $_SESSION['attacklost']=1; $db->query("UPDATE users SET hp=0 WHERE userid=$userid"); print "<form action='attacklost.php?ID={$_GET['ID']}' method='post'><input type='submit' value='Continue' />"; Replace with $youdata['hp']=0; $_SESSION['attacklost']=$_GET['ID']; $db->query("UPDATE users SET hp=0 WHERE userid=$userid"); print "<form action='attacklost.php?ID={$_GET['ID']}' method='post'><input type='submit' value='Continue' />"; Go to attacklost.php $_SESSION['attacking']=0; $_SESSION['attacklost']=0; $od=$db->query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE userid={$_GET['ID']}"); Replace with $_SESSION['attacking']=0; $od=$db->query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE userid={$_GET['ID']}"); Then add where required in attacklost.php if($_SESSION['attacklost'] != $_GET['ID']) { print "Cheaters don't get anywhere."; $_SESSION['attacklost']=0; $h->endpage(); exit; } Please let me know if it has a bug but ive tested it twice and works fine unless ive overlooked something adding here.

Over the past few months working on a new project ive been gradually running through features and making improvements where I believe there required and now I come to the register page. Now this has got me second guessing myself bigtime. The reason for this is there are many methods to try and save you game from idiots but Im unsure of the disadvantages. The only method I believe has any good effect is having a email validation system in operation however im worried that is there any reason to think that emails would fail to get where there required due to spam / junk mail filters and thus having a big impact on members joining. I was woundering if any other members have any other methods that you think will have a good method to protect your site from mass multis etc. Many thx for any input given.

Security is indeed a big thing. I was thinking that new methods are being generated all the time to exploit games. Would it be possable to create a logging system for SQL errors. Unless im wrong every exploit Ive seen will cause and SQL error however still do the damage. E.G Credit mass mopney etc. I was thinking if a logging system could be done to save all SQL errors and the input used to cause it so that an admin staff can check the log and resolve possable bug exploits or just general errors? Any thoughts anyone or is this just not possable.

Re: *special* McCodes v3 BETA Release Its about time all these free hosts put a stop to all these games run by children. Its these children that go around spamming other games and in general making a bad impression to all RPG games by idiots that reset there game every week or otherwise open a game and close it after 1 week because they have made no money. Then to top it off you have mass children in here making bullshit code thats not worth a light. You notice how I say children alot. Well its simple and a fact that its always kids and its about time the people here stopped helping such people with there coding issues. In the long run would create a better community for us all. As for the children. Grow UP and then come back when you have learned how to run a website / business!

Re: 2009 Legal Rules for your website Copyright Notice??? I was just thinking how far this goes. Im well aware that images or a part of this as well as game content etc but where does the copyright laws stand regarding templates. For example say I brought a template from one of these template sites and had it installed. Would I be right in thinking that this cant be copyrighted from someone else adding the same template to another game as the template is purchased by many people over time?? Just a little confused.

Re: IPN Issue? Gee would have helped if I did state the problem. The problem was the IPN didnt credit. Well ive made progress and now got the script to work. As this is a back end script for paypal I decided to add 10 events to the script so as it was processed id get the events upto the script break. This helped me find the problem. Hope thsi method helps others.

Im currently having mass issues with Paypals IPN. Now I thought it was a script error but after trying around 6 I dont believe all can be wrong. Ive also checked my Paypal config which is correct but I still dont seem to get this to work. I think it maybe a post back issue to Paypal but how would I know for sure. Has anyone any idea what could be causing this or does anyone no what server requirements are required to ensure there is a post back of varibles. Many thx in advance for any help.

Im trying to work out methods of improving query loads on my server. Please take a look at the following query as an example. $is=$db->query("SELECT u.*,us.* FROM users u LEFT JOIN userstats us ON u.userid=us.userid WHERE u.userid=$userid"); Now queries that start with such things as SELECT u.*,us.* FROM dont sink in the old brain too well as of yet. I was wondering if this query is fully optimized or is there a better way. Any insight would be great to better understand queries of this nature.

Re: How to use sprintf? Hi. Im just trying to work this out and just looking to see if ive done following ok. Query is - $q=$db->query("SELECT * FROM cities WHERE cityid != {$ir['location']} AND cityminlevel <= {$ir['level']}"); What ive come up with. $cities = sprintf ( "SELECT * FROM `cities` WHERE `cityid` != ('%u') AND cityminlevel <= ('%u')", $ir['location'], $ir['level'] ); $q=$db->query($cities); Just after it will show - while($r=$db->fetch_row($q)) Now on my attempt to use sprintf at the end I put $q=$db->query($cities);. Is this correct??

Re: Updated forums [mccodes v2] Completely secure with that, absolutely NO WAY that ANYWAY could hack into those brilliant forums that were coded so securely. As long as you have that. :lol: Duuuudeeeee you are soo incorrect, lol! The most secure files may be 99% secure, but there is always the 1% chance or so. Thats why banks employ "Programmers" to attempt to hack into there online sites and if they find a whole they patch it. And i assure you, the code used to make those online banking sites is x10000 more secure then any MCcode file. Just so we have that clear xD So the reply.php isnt required to be secured then???? I would rethink and secure against that risk.

Re: Why? V2 userprofiles are slow for staff only that display IP information. Normal members have no lag effect. Its something to do with the IP info that has to resolve the host name I beleave.

Re: [review]www.lost-warzone.net Its also great when this owner uses not only my pages but links header code to my server thus to use my bandwidth and to top it off use my business name. Great owner. +1 for being an idiot!

Well im in the process of making another site and on deciding to go through every page one at a time to edit and secure as required I came to the yourgang.php. I found in here an section commented out that links to its own gangs forums that uses the tables in the database however its bypassed and gangs forums topics are put in the forums_forum table that really messes everything up. Now im really bringing this up to see if there is a good reason for this to be done or is this just a coding error?

Re: Auctions Cron If my memory serves me correctly this is due to the event add part of the cron failing. If you show me some code ill probs can see the error however from memory I cant remember what the exact fix is but Im aware it wasnt major.

Re: Imacros Killer! I dont really want to CAPTCHA every second or page load. Ive have captch set every 5 mins on the mains things in site but dosent stop the fact that a member can run it to captcha then verify then start the whole process again. Overall still doing the same cheat method but just not being able to leave the computer for more than 5 mins a time thus my post above. I want to stop such activity even being recorded.
-
Well this tool used in firefox is now becoming a pain. Cheaters yet again using something else to there advantage im my game. Has anyone got an idea if there is anything I can add to my header.php to somehow keep crashing the firefox imacros record feature. For example if its run and verify macro come on the record fails as this isnt in the recorded cycle but is there anyway to make it so its just not possable to record due to a changing element on the page on every click etc. I dunno. Any idea people. Many thx in advance.
