<div>Without rest we patched all servers and changed important parts of our data structure to ensure more security in the future. Moreover, it was inevitable to reset all game servers to a state before the hacking. Of course all premium players got a compensation of 5 days to make up for the lost premium time.<br/><br/>Since the hacker got access to your account passwords and recovery keys we changed them all. We sent an email with the new account data to the address your account is registered to. Unfortunately, many players did not receive this email for several reasons. Please do <strong>not</strong> send email requests to get your new password, we will solve the problem in another way.<br/><br/>Some hints to help yourself:<br/><br/> Many players confuse their account data, so please think about which email address you used for your account. Then you can easily look at the right place.  Our Lost Account Interface can tell you the account number if you do not know to which account the new password belongs.  If your email account was full or you accidentally deleted the email with the new password, use the Lost Account Interface to request a new password for your Tibia account.  If you cannot access your email account anymore, please contact your email provider to get the email account back. Then you can also use the Lost Account Interface.  Personalised accounts can get a new password in any case using the Lost Account Interface.<br/><br/>Do not worry, we won&#8217;t let you down and work on a solution for the remaining unaccessible accounts. Stay tuned for more information in the next days.<br/><br/>Please also remember the following:  For security reasons you cannot change your password to a password you have used before.  <strong>Nobody needs to ask you for your password for any reason!</strong> Only you need to know your password. Remember it well and do not tell it anyone else. Above all, the CipSoft Team or any other official person will never ask you for your password.  <strong>Only enter your password at our website or to log into the game!</strong> The only official website for Tibia is www.tibia.com, so never enter your password at any other site. Especially do not believe statements at any fanpage affirming something else. To log into the game, only use the original Tibia client available at this site. If you enter your password in any other program you risk that someone else may get it and that you will lose your account.<br/><br/>We hope that we can soon continue our normal work, the work on the next bigger game update you have been already expecting for a long time!<br/><br/>See you in Tibia! <br/><br/><em>By: <strong>Emma</strong></em><br/><br/><strong>About the Author:</strong>

<div>Every day, we receive several very sad emails from players who have lost their account to a hacker. Getting hacked is surely one of the worst scenarios that can happen to a player&#8217;s account. Players have often invested much time in developing their characters and collecting rare items, and for many their characters are dear to their hearts. Accounts are your treasures that have to be protected from any harm. In this featured article we want to explain once more which steps you need to follow to protect your account against hacking.<br/><br/>1. Protect your account!<br/><br/>First of all, it is important that you keep your account data secret. Nobody, except yourself, should know your account number, your password and your recovery key; not your brother, not your best friend, and least of all somebody you only met ingame. Often enough players get hacked after an argument with their best friend or a sibling that knew their account data. Also, if you write an email to customer support, do not include your account data. It is sufficient if you tell us your character name. Keep in mind that nobody in an official position will ever ask you for your account data, no member of the CipSoft team and also no gamemaster. Whenever somebody approaches you, asking for your password, account number or recovery key, you can be sure that this person wants to hack you.<br/><br/>Do not store account data on your computer as it is possible that somebody is spying data from your files. If you cannot remember your password, write it on a piece of paper and store it in a safe place which is only known to you. Also do not keep emails containing account data.<br/><br/>It is also important that you use a secure password. A secure password consists of a mix of upper and lower case letters, numbers and special characters. A good strategy to find a secure password for example is to think of a sentence and pick the first letters of every word. The sentence will help you to remember your password at all times, and nobody will be able to guess it. Do not use your account number as password, not your character name, not your birthday and generally nothing that somehow refers to your person and can be guessed by others. In this connection, it is also important that you do not give other people personal information about yourself, especially data like your address or phone number. No matter if inside or outside Tibia, e.g. by using a messaging service, do not trust people you only know from the internet. This does not mean that everybody on the internet is a bad person, in most cases the people you meet are very nice, however, fact is you do not know the real person and it is very easy to give yourself another identity on the internet.<br/><br/>Furthermore, you should ensure to change your password regularly and to use your password exclusively for Tibia. It is very important that the passwords for Tibia and your email account are different. Also the password you might use for your guild&#8217;s homepage should by no means be your Tibia password.<br/><br/>Finally, it is very important to register your account. Far too often, players cannot recover their accounts after a hacking incident because their account has not been registered. Players that hack accounts without a registration mainly use this opportunity and register the account to obtain the recovery key with which they can change the email address of the account instantly. In these cases, the original owner has no chance of getting this account back. For this reason it is vital that you register your account with correct data.<br/><br/>Also make sure that you do not lose access to the email address to which the account is registered. Use your email account regularly because many email providers delete inactive email accounts. Do not create an extra email account for your Tibia account. You might forget to use it regularly after some time. Adjust the assigned email address in time if your current email account is about to change. Also, handle your email account with the same caution as your Tibia account. Keep in mind, a person with access to your email account can easily hack your Tibia account!<br/><br/>2. Do not fall for hacking links or emails!<br/><br/>A common way to hack players is by posting websites that promise various things if you visit a certain website or download some file. Whenever somebody is promising a &#8220;free Premium Account&#8221; if you visit the website being posted, you can be sure that this link has been designed to hack your account. Never believe in such advertisements! Also links that lead to websites on which you can buy Tibia gold for real life money, are often designed in a way to steal your account data. Even worse, they often abuse your credit card information for later purchases on the internet. For this reason, stay away from pages which offer Tibia gold or other items for real life money.<br/><br/>An all-time favourite are also links that promise you pictures of some naked girl. You should also be suspicious if somebody invites you to a guild and asks you to enter a certain link to do so. Note that the only way to join a guild is via the guild section on the official Tibia website. Popular are also links to Tibicam movies that will either show the victory over some boss monster, some guild war or other cool events. However, if you download such a movie, you normally also install some keylogger on your computer. Of course not all Tibicam movies will hack your account. However, you should be extremely careful if somebody is showing such a link to you. If a movie comes from a player which you do not know, or if the link is just randomly posted in some channel or on the boards, you are well-advised not to look at it. Also if you see some link in some channel or on the boards whose address looks like the official Tibia website, do not simply copy it into your address bar. Hackers often use other characters to let an address appear very similar to tibia.com; e.g. second &#8220;i&#8221; replaced by &#8220;1&#8243;: TIB1A.COM; first &#8220;i&#8221; replaced by a &#8220;small L&#8221; TlBIA.COM. For this reason, always make sure that you only enter our website by manually typing the address www.tibia.com into the address bar.<br/><br/>Another hacking method is sending ingame letters to player depots. In these letters you are either promised free premium time or threatened with some banishment. You are asked to visit a certain website and enter your account data. Needless to say that these websites have only been designed to steal your account data. Note that we never send ingame letters including links. The only letters you will obtain from us are those informing you about winning a house and reminders about your rent. Every other ingame letter claiming to be from CipSoft is fake and designed to hack your account.<br/><br/>From time to time, you might have seen a news ticker in which we warn players about phishing emails. &#8220;Phishing&#8221; is compounded of the words password and fishing. These emails are randomly sent to a huge number of email addresses in order to steal account data of people. In most cases, the sender address has been faked to arouse the impression that the email comes from an official place. In Tibia, phishing emails mainly fake our support address as sender and also try to imitate the form of an official email, e.g. by signing it with &#8220;Your CipSoft Team&#8221;. In these emails you are asked to click on a link to confirm your data, to state your opinion or to get free premium time, to mention just a few of many possible scenarios that require to enter your account data somewhere. The link itself looks mostly like an official link. However, if you move your mouse pointer on the link (don&#8217;t click on it though!), you can see in the bottom of the page the website where the link really leads to.<br/><br/>These links mainly lead to websites which look exactly like the official Tibia website. However, in the address bar you can see that you are on another website. If you enter your account data on such a website, the information will be sent directly to the hacker. Please be extremely careful about links you receive via email, especially if you have not requested an email either via some tool or by writing to somebody.<br/><br/>3. Follow the Tibia Rules!<br/><br/>The Tibia Rules have not only been set up to prevent chaos and unfair behaviour among Tibia players, some of them have also been designed to protect players from getting hacked. Please note that we do not offer support for players that have lost their accounts due to violating a Tibia Rule.<br/><br/>Account Sharing<br/><br/>Sharing an account does not only give you an unfair advantage over other players, it also poses a high security risk. As already stated above, it is essential that only the owner of an account knows the account data. If an account is shared, several people know the account data. Often enough we hear stories where two best friends or brothers have shared an character up to a certain level, then one of them decides to kick the other player out and changes the password. Plenty of times, the other sharer gets angry about this. By knowing the account number and often also the recovery key, he hacks the account back and either tries to keep the account for himself or destroys the account, e.g. be rooking the character, breaking the Tibia Rules until the account gets deleted etc. This is only one scenario of how account sharing can destroy your account. Keep in mind, if you share your account, you do not only violate the Tibia Rules, but you also risk getting hacked.<br/><br/>Account Trading<br/><br/>If you buy or trade an account, you risk the hacking of your account as another person knows your account data. There are many cases where people have paid much money or valuable ingame items for an account and later the original owner has &#8220;hacked&#8221; the account back. In another scenario, players exchanged account data and then one of them realised that the account data he had received for his new account was wrong and his original account was gone as well because he had not registered it before. Just like sharing, trading accounts gives other people access to your account data and with that there is always a high risk of getting hacked.<br/><br/>Using unofficial software<br/><br/>There are many tools for Tibia that give players unfair advantages, the most common ones allow you to hunt while being away from your keyboard, also known as botting. Not only are such programs against the Tibia Rules, but using them is also extremely risky. However, also tolerated tools like a TibiCam can lead to the hacking of your account. All of these tools can contain a virus and may damage your computer badly. Very often such tools have a backdoor implemented. Such a backdoor is a modification of the tool you have downloaded which allows the programmer of the tool to enter your computer system and to control your PC. This way he can easily hack your Tibia account. Many other tools install keyloggers on your computer system. Keyloggers record the keystrokes you make and by doing so they can easily find out your account number and password. You always should keep in mind that whenever you download unofficial software, you do not only risk the hacking of your Tibia account, but you also risk that the hacker gets private information you have stored on your computer or, in the worst case, is even able to hack your online bank account. Therefore, hands off of unofficial software!<br/><br/>4. Protect your computer!<br/><br/>Unfortunately, there are many possibilities to infect your computer system with keyloggers and viruses. Running a file that someone sent to you by email or via a messaging service like ICQ or MSN is the most common way to infect your computer. For this reason, you should be extremely careful with all files you obtain. Note, that CipSoft will never send you emails with attachments. If you receive emails with attachments from an unknown sender, you are well-advised to delete them right away. It is also recommended that you scan a downloaded file with an up-to-date virus program before running it.<br/><br/>To keep your computer clean, you should use an antivirus program and a firewall. Make sure that those programs are activated all the time. Also, they should be updated regularly, preferably every day. Additionally, it is recommended that you scan your full system weekly to detect new viruses that the older versions of your antivirus program were unable to find. Also your operating system and your browser should be updated regularly and run with the latest version. This is necessary as older versions can still contain security risks that are fixed with the newest patch. Keep in mind that it is possible to get hacked by simply looking at a website with an outdated browser.<br/><br/>Finally, unless you cannot avoid it, you should only play on your personal computer at home. We often receive emails in which players report being hacked while playing on the PC of a friend who had a keylogger installed. Also playing in a public network, as they can be found in libraries, schools or internet cafés, can be a security risk. There may already be keyloggers or backdoors installed on the computer by other people. Also, the data you send through public networks can be recorded easily by hackers. If you have no other possibility than to play from a public network, you should at least try to find a place with high security standards.<br/><br/>Getting hacked is a very frustrating, in many cases, however, avoidable situation. If you follow our security guidelines, you should be well protected against any hacking attempts.<br/><br/>Play safely!<br/><br/><br/><br/><em>By: <strong>Emma</strong></em><br/><br/><strong>About the Author:</strong>

<div>Disclaimer: Reading this guide will not prevent you from being hacked but it will strongly reduce your chance on getting hacked.<br/><br/>1) Never give your password or account number to other people. Even if they say that they need it, or that they are Gamemasters, Tutors or Counsellors; you shouldn&#8217;t give it. Tibia or CIP-soft will never ask your account number of password. Don&#8217;t believe it when they tell you that you get a free premium account or free items. CIP (the makers of tibia), will never give away free premium account.<br/><br/>2) Never enter your password on other websites than tibia.com. There are some websites that promise you free items or free premium account or even other things, but these are hack sites. They want your account number and password to take all your items. Be careful too whit websites looking exactly the same than the official website. Keep in mind that tibia.com is the only official website.<br/><br/>3) Don&#8217;t make your password too easy, and don&#8217;t store the password or account number in a file on your computer. Good hackers will be able to hack your computer and read everything that is on it. Make also sure that they don&#8217;t hack your e-mail account because then they can hack your tibia account very easy. Use a firewall to protect yourself against hackers and viruses.<br/><br/>4) Never believe mails that CIP send you. Sometimes you get a mail from the official e-mail address from CIP-soft, but this is a hacking mail too. They say that you lose your account if you don&#8217;t click on the link and fill in the page, but you will just lose your account if you click on it. If you think that you have done something wrong, check your computer for viruses whit a virus scanner.<br/><br/>5) Don&#8217;t play tibia on a public computer like in a library, an internet bar, school&#8230; Maybe they can check the history and hack your account. There are hackers that can check everything you do on that computer very easy.<br/><br/>6) Don&#8217;t believe letters in your depot that you have won something like a free premium account or a trial period for premium account. If it is, it will stand on the website www.tibia.com. CIP is to busy to send mails or letters to every person. Also don&#8217;t believe it if you get free items. Latest sending a letter that you’ll get banned is very popular. Do not mail or visit (to) anything. This is not true, and you won’t get banned. CIP will never warn you of anything by in-game letters.<br/><br/>7) Don&#8217;t trade or share your account. Sometimes people ask you to share an account, but never do it because they can log in whit your character and take all your stuff, and sharing is against the rules. Never buy an account from another player. They sell it, and after you bought it, they just enter a recovery key password and they have the account back. It&#8217;s very easy to get hacked this way. And last but not least, account selling, buying, sharing or trading are forbidden and will result in a ban/deletion of all accounts taking part in it.<br/><br/> <img src='http://www.tekboss.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif' alt='8)' class='wp-smiley' /> If you have Premium Account, you can personalise your account. It increases the safety of your account, and if you are hacked you can send a copy of your passport to get your account back. You also get a recovery key password. Write down this password, and if you are hacked you can enter it in the lost account interface to get your account back immediately. If you want to get rid of the key logger, try a virus scan, and if this doesn’t find anything reinstall windows (format your pc).<br/><br/>9) Don&#8217;t download any programs that help you whit playing tibia that aren&#8217;t from the official site (www.tibia.com). They will tell that it are great programs, and most of them does work, e.g. there are programs that eats, fishes, casts spells and make runes automatically or there are programs that you will never need a torch again&#8230; Never download these programs. Some of these programs are: Tibia GG, Tibia Proxy, AFK program&#8230; Btw, those programs are pretty useless after the last update. Also be careful with the place where you download TibiaCam. For experienced hackers it’s not very hard to put a key logger in it and republish it.<br/><br/>10) Installing a firewall will increase your security. Don’t tell around what firewall you use, so the hackers can’t put them down. Tell as less info about yourself and your pc as possible. The less they now, the better.<br/><br/>11) Do NOT listen to all kind of in-game messages offering you things like:<br/><br/>‘become level 80, visit …’<br/><br/>‘want to come on hydrablade quest, visit …’<br/><br/>‘join my guild and get free rooms, look on …’<br/><br/>’free premium account at …’<br/><br/>’Bubble against 6 demons, …’<br/><br/><br/><br/><em>By: <strong>Emma</strong></em><br/><br/><strong>About the Author:</strong>

<div>Online gaming is gaining huge popularity every year. It is due to the fact that online gaming activities allow multi-player interaction in virtual worlds. Even, online games are designed for kids so that they can compete with their counterparts quite easily and conveniently. Many games are based on role playing theme, where players take on the virtual identity of the fictional character and enjoy the twists &#038; turns of the various games.<br/><br/>Hacking in Online Games:<br/><br/>Hacking has been present since a long time now. It is not wrong to say the element of gaming was present from the early days of computer development. However, it has been known by different names at different point of time. Nowadays, hacking is widely known and has been present in unauthorized computer mischief. According to some experts, the development of hacking is contributed by the popularity of free online games and increasing number of people who desire to take on free online games downloads.<br/><br/><strong>How to Prevent Hacking?</strong><br/><br/><strong>Anti-Hacking Tools</strong><br/><br/>The most important concern for every player is to prevent hacking programs from hampering the gaming environment.

<div>If you wished to Wii softmod you needed the Zelda game to implement the &#8216;Twilight Hack&#8217;. In the pass if your Wii&#8217;s firmware was v3.4 ( as an example ) you wished to use the twilight game to softmod your system. There was no other alternative to softmodding your Nintendo Wii, the good news is you don&#8217;t need the Zelda game to Wii softmod anymore.<br/><br/>Most game-players that used softmodding dicovered that is it becoming harder to homebrew their Wii&#8217;s from version 4.0 and up using the twilight, infact it just did not work. However the excellent news is a new softmod strategy came out named the BannerBomb which is much like the twilight hack but can hack and homebrew any version of Wii from 3.x to v4.1. Its extremely simple and you do not have to IT expert to install it on your system.<br/><br/>Before you go and download the software ensure you have the right tools. There are a couple of things you want to wii softmod, first you need a 2 gig sd-card and reader. You may also employ a SDHC card device which only works on v4.0 upwards. These cards will not work on versions below v4.0. So don&#8217;t try it. Next you will need a computer desktop and most of all a Wii.<br/><br/>As you almost certainly already know, to run Wii softmodding on your console you must have installed the Homebrew channel. You do not need to have the Zelda video game to install run this softmod which makes it even more attractive to use. Do not fret you will not lose any functionality with this mod as it will allow you to continuing backing up and playing copied wii games, dvds, retro games and lots of other emulators. Remember this can work with wii v4.0 &amp; v4.1.<br/><br/>The query you could be asking is why you need a game to execute a hack? Well Zelda contains a special game save that bypasses the protection code that stops Wii homebrew channel from being installed. This game hack sadly ceased working with the 4.0 and 4.1 firmware updates so programmers needed another softmod to overcome this hurdle, thus the bannerbomb hack.<br/><br/>To run homebrew these days you don&#8217;t need a special game save hack to download and run it on Wii. Wii softmod without using Twilight hack is actually the way to go and it saves money and time purchasing the game if you haven&#8217;t got it. The great thing is you will continue to be ready to enjoy everything the previous hack offered and more.<br/><br/>To get this hack for homebrew visit &#8211; Wii softmod without twilight hack<br/><br/>.<br/><br/><br/><br/><em>By: <strong>Colby Marks</strong></em><br/><br/><strong>About the Author:</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="float:left; padding: 12px"><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/hacking24.jpg"><img src="/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/hacking24.jpg" title='' alt='' /></a></div>
<div>Disclaimer: Reading this guide will not prevent you from being hacked but it will strongly reduce your chance on getting hacked.<br/><br/>1) Never give your password or account number to other people. Even if they say that they need it, or that they are Gamemasters, Tutors or Counsellors; you shouldn&#8217;t give it. Tibia or CIP-soft will never ask your account number of password. Don&#8217;t believe it when they tell you that you get a free premium account or free items. CIP (the makers of tibia), will never give away free premium account.<br/><br/>2) Never enter your password on other websites than tibia.com. There are some websites that promise you free items or free premium account or even other things, but these are hack sites. They want your account number and password to take all your items. Be careful too whit websites looking exactly the same than the official website. Keep in mind that tibia.com is the only official website.<br/><br/>3) Don&#8217;t make your password too easy, and don&#8217;t store the password or account number in a file on your computer. Good hackers will be able to hack your computer and read everything that is on it. Make also sure that they don&#8217;t hack your e-mail account because then they can hack your tibia account very easy. Use a firewall to protect yourself against hackers and viruses.<br/><br/>4) Never believe mails that CIP send you. Sometimes you get a mail from the official e-mail address from CIP-soft, but this is a hacking mail too. They say that you lose your account if you don&#8217;t click on the link and fill in the page, but you will just lose your account if you click on it. If you think that you have done something wrong, check your computer for viruses whit a virus scanner.<br/><br/>5) Don&#8217;t play tibia on a public computer like in a library, an internet bar, school&#8230; Maybe they can check the history and hack your account. There are hackers that can check everything you do on that computer very easy.<br/><br/>6) Don&#8217;t believe letters in your depot that you have won something like a free premium account or a trial period for premium account. If it is, it will stand on the website tibia.com. CIP is to busy to send mails or letters to every person. Also don&#8217;t believe it if you get free items. Latest sending a letter that you&#8217;ll get banned is very popular. Do not mail or visit (to) anything. This is not true, and you won&#8217;t get banned. CIP will never warn you of anything by in-game letters.<br/><br/>7) Don&#8217;t trade or share your account. Sometimes people ask you to share an account, but never do it because they can log in whit your character and take all your stuff, and sharing is against the rules. Never buy an account from another player. They sell it, and after you bought it, they just enter a recovery key password and they have the account back. It&#8217;s very easy to get hacked this way. And last but not least, account selling, buying, sharing or trading are forbidden and will result in a ban/deletion of all accounts taking part in it.<br/><br/> <img src='http://www.tekboss.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif' alt='8)' class='wp-smiley' /> If you have Premium Account, you can personalise your account. It increases the safety of your account, and if you are hacked you can send a copy of your passport to get your account back. You also get a recovery key password. Write down this password, and if you are hacked you can enter it in the lost account interface to get your account back immediately. If you want to get rid of the key logger, try a virus scan, and if this doesn&#8217;t find anything reinstall windows (format your pc).<br/><br/>9) Don&#8217;t download any programs that help you whit playing tibia that aren&#8217;t from the official site .They will tell that it are great programs, and most of them does work, e.g. there are programs that eats, fishes, casts spells and make runes automatically or there are programs that you will never need a torch again&#8230; Never download these programs. Some of these programs are: Tibia GG, Tibia Proxy, AFK program&#8230; Btw, those programs are pretty useless after the last update. Also be careful with the place where you download TibiaCam. For experienced hackers it&#8217;s not very hard to put a key logger in it and republish it.<br/><br/>10) Installing a firewall will increase your security. Don&#8217;t tell around what firewall you use, so the hackers can&#8217;t put them down. Tell as less info about yourself and your pc as possible. The less they know, the better.<br/><br/> <br/><br/><br/><br/><em>By: <strong>Emma</strong></em><br/><br/><strong>About the Author:</strong>

Look, the whole point of game is for entertainment and not to feel depress because you lose all the time.<br/><br/>2) Have MORE fun Some people just like to see crazy stuffs in the game. For example, I like to see my enemy died from the grenade instead of using the traditional gun. So using the hack, I can have unlimited grenade to throw and have fun like no one&#8217;s business. I have friends who love to use knife to kill, so he have unlimited lives just to kill enemies with knife. The point here is to have more fun!<br/><br/>3) Try it The last reason is really logical.

<div>You might as well be very interested in doing more than what you can expect from your wii console. You might have just depended on it as an ordinary game console and try other possible gaming consoles like Xbox 360 and Sony PS3. To tell you frankly that is not that necessary anymore because your wii console has the ability to do more than what you expect from it, all it needs is a help of a powerful software that is good enough to crack or hack a tough wii console.<br/><br/>Let me introduce this software that I was able to come across in my quest in finding new features for my wii. I was able to lurch into homebrew<strong> wii hack </strong>software that allows homebrew applications to run on Nintendo Wii and this is one of the best things that the hacking community was able to accomplish all this time. Never thought that homebrew<strong> wii hack </strong>software would be able to successfully get through wii&#8217;s system but it actually works, no doubt about it.<br/><br/>HombreWare is what the software is actually labeled with, this <strong>homebrew wii hack </strong>software bundle has the capability to empower ones Nintendo Wii console to run homebrew applications, play DVD movies and as well as enable running imported and back up games, it&#8217;s definitely something that wii fanatics should look into.<br/><br/>Some would say that it might be something that other consoles are already capable of doing of, but if you own a wii this should be something that you must take advantage of. Emulators that are included in the homebrew wii hack software would as well be able to give you the chance to play classic games from way-back consoles like Sega Genesis, N64 and other games from various consoles.<br/><br/>The best feature which everybody would probably be looking forward to when getting this software, is being able to play back up and access region locked games that without the use of mod chips which would actually concern you regarding void warranty issues. So those old time issues with your hardware components are not going to be a problem with this homebrew wii hack software anymore.<br/><br/><br/><br/><em>By: <strong>Abhinav Sidana</strong></em><br/><br/><strong>About the Author:</strong>

<div>Hacks, on EVE Online, are clear violations of the terms of service for using the game and maintaining an account. If you&#8217;re considering doing an EVE Online hack, understand that everything you&#8217;re doing can, and ultimately will, result in your account being shut down. You won&#8217;t get a refund of funds played, the account will get shut down, no questions asked or answered. That little &#8220;I agree&#8221; button you clicked when you set up the account came at the end of a license agreement that spells out the penalties in full measure.<br/><br/>That being said, if you think you can get away with it (you can&#8217;t), there are a few EVE Online hacks that work for short periods of time, and can be used to close the gap on other players.<br/><br/>The first hack is using database analysis tools whenever a new patch comes out to go sniffing for universe database exploits. You need a hex editor and some decent technical knowhow to make this work, but you&#8217;re basically trying to use the database files downloaded to your computer to &#8220;sniff&#8221; for new sectors or changes to existing sectors, to find the resources before everyone else does. This requires that you be one of the very first people out there to download a patch, and requires enough additional work that the benefit is probably pretty minimal. Related to this is trying to find malformed tables in the download for exploits &#8211; sometimes, these can be treated as invisible gates to new regions. Beware &#8211; sometimes those gates are one-way gates and you may get stuck in a place with no way home.<br/><br/>The second hack is trying to compromise another player&#8217;s account, to steal in game resources. This is definitely risky in terms of account deletion. It&#8217;s also risky in terms of actual, honest to god fraud. Doing this EVE Online hack can actually put you behind bars, because it&#8217;s considered electronic funds fraud, even by proxy or remove. So before you try doing EVE Online hacks, think very carefully about the consequences of getting caught.<br/><br/>All in all, trying to do EVE Online hacks is a great way to get your account nuked and lose all the fun of playing this great game with 500,000 of your fiercest competitors on a 5,000 star galaxy. You won&#8217;t enjoy the rewards if you cheated to get them, so do it honest. EVE Online hacks are cheating, and cheaters never prosper.<br/><br/><br/><br/><em>By: <strong>Tom Kranz</strong></em><br/><br/><strong>About the Author:</strong>
