Bioware Authentication Servers
Posted: Sun Aug 14, 2011 12:00 am
Since it appears that bioware does not plan to fix their authentication servers, and the fact that they are down allows people to exploit logging into others accounts, we have added a new layer of login protection.
Previously we would log these cases, in case someone abused it to hack into anothers account, and with backups available we would have no problem restoring to pre-hack condition.
But this was starting to get too much to keep a watchful eye on for the admins, so instead we have now protected login so that if you attempt to log in to anothers account you will be immediately booted.
Some of you who use several cdkeys might find you have problems logging in with your characters now, so if this is the case, or you can't log in with your character and don't know why, please post on bug forum or send a PM to me or Mr Otyugh, and we will resolve it as soon as we're able.
