HypnoticKirby Posted March 18, 2004 Report Posted March 18, 2004 I think it's because you loged in with a wrong password too many times. securty reasons. Quote
Mr Ekted Posted March 18, 2004 Report Posted March 18, 2004 If you could login with a bad password as often as you liked, you could try millions of them a day (with some software) until you got the right one. Quote
»CypherJF Posted March 18, 2004 Report Posted March 18, 2004 Yeah, I noticed this tonight, to make sure that if you run a bot, it logs in w/ the right password to the name... :/ oopps Quote
attackmonkeys Posted March 18, 2004 Report Posted March 18, 2004 yeah happened to me one time at the computer lab in my school...i installed continuum on all of them and someone tried to logon to somebody else's profile with the wrong password too many times and every computer in the school couldn't get on ss (similar IPs i guess) Quote

Mr Ekted Posted March 18, 2004 Report Posted March 18, 2004 That is an unfortunate consequence of NAT; one player can ruin it for everyone else on the inside. Quote
Dav Posted March 18, 2004 Report Posted March 18, 2004 indeed. Can SSC sysops get lost PW or at least reset as long as you prove the account is yours? Quote
Mr Ekted Posted March 18, 2004 Report Posted March 18, 2004 SSC Biller Ops can reset your password for you. The best way is if you registered your account with a valid email address. Then you can just do ?lostp!@#$%^&*word from another alias, and it will email you. Quote
