    IP logon failure

    I got an email from Sundren saying that someone tried to log in to my account two days ago from IP 221.178.31.25

    As best as I can tell this is a Chinese address. Anyone else run into anything similar?

    And BTW, if I seem to post weirdness, it isn't me.

    Kelly got the same thing. That was the reason she poked in and said hello a little while ago.

    Not sure if it is related, but at least two other RP servers I know of have been hit with "hackers" trying to mess with them in the last few weeks. I don't admin either, so not sure what the "attack" is or what they have been doing...and may have nothing to do with this :P

      It's every vbulletin board on the planet. I want to scream every time I read about this, because the reality is all you can do is mostly ignore it. But the emails, the constant fucking emails I get about it.

      Literally almost every other day from some old user account. It's maddening. I don't even respond to them anymore.
      The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

        Ah. Good to know. Just wanted to give a heads up.

          Same here... I received an email too and decided to ignore it.
          Cheers!

            Unless your password is something like password, or password1 if you go the whole alpha numeric route, you really have nothing to worry about.
            It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do a little - Do what you can.
