Hacking Spree is Back!
About a few days ago, a huge mass of players who followed Nexon's advice in changing their passwords had their accounts compromised. Before we rage at Nexon for giving us the wrong advice, I'd like for many of you to take a look at this humorous, yet useful comic that explains an easy method to securing your account.
Atm, I believe these hackers are unable to go through SQL injections. Instead, I believe the reason most people are losing their accounts are due to short handed, easy passwords, and also the fact that there is some kind of Packet trap hack hidden in Nexon's database. For ex., a hacker will only be able to receive the new packet of password changed if he planted some kind of "bomb" or "transmitter" inside Nexon's usb drive. I could (and probably am) totally wrong about this, but I don't see why somebody's account would get hacked as SOON as they change their pw. Very suspicious indeed, no word from Nexon, tons of connection problems still remaining, no GM to be found in forums, and Dragon Cestus is out as a bug.
I've been looking for this comic for a long time, but finally I was able to obtain it through some troll in the forums.
In short, the point is to make a password such as "ilovezokkuforever" instead of "l33th4x0r". Reason being the combinations of words have a higher Password # count. Hence, the more letters there are in your pw with variety, the more secure your password is.
P.S-Don't really make your password ilovezokkuforever.
Make it "ilovezokkuforeverANDEVER"
Make it "ilovezokkuforeverANDEVER"
So this is Devcat 2 YEARS AGO. THIS, is basically their ENTIRE planning staff.
8 people. That's it.
That's when Vindictus was brand new in most continents.
Today? Well, let's just say I couldn't even find a picture.
Dragon Story stolen from a random Fan Forumer
Remember when your elementary school teacher told you not to plagiarize?
Well it looks like Nexon may have redefined "plagiarism".

Recently, it was uncovered by players that the story of the new patch " God of Formors " was actually the creation of a user DC마일드,
and today, the GM has admitted and apologized for the unauthorized use of users contents as the game content, 
they are still under consultation for the compensation.
It is all over the media now, here's one of article:

I know DevCat was rushing for this updates and release it in summer time, but this time I am quite disappointed about the conduct of this developing team..
The article basically says Nexon had stolen a Forumer's fan story of Dragon and implemented it into the game. Although this may have looked like an exciting opportunity, this dirt for Nexon had been released all over the media, holding Nexon liable for damages. The forumer will be compensated tremendously for the mishap (Personally, I would have sued Nexon, this is a breach of personal property and copyright laws. All the cash that Nexon has made through Dragon could have been stolen by that one forumer, potentially a few million dollars)
Just when you thought +17 was going to be crazy enough, look what we dug up in our hfs files...

Annnnnnnnnnnnd finally you guessed right! Kai is the NEW OP In KR. This is AFTER his nerf.
Random KR Forum post: (Le Google translate, sorry)
Basically, the norm for Kai is 18k Attack. I haven't seen his defense, but I can imagine due to light armor he's going to get a buff in Defense perhaps?
