Hey peeps, I have not seen anyone post this yet and it's pretty important. So I wanted at least to warn people of the D3 hack that is going on around lately and how to prevent it. As long as you enter a public game with other people, they can spoof your ID session without needing email or password, thus taking all your stuff and deleting your characters. Blizzard is still trying to solve this issue and the only solution for now is to not enter any public games with people you do not know. Other than that, have fun.

nirvAnA: moved to news.
Update 1: iaguz's character got cleaned and he did not join a public game, so there may be other ways but not playing public games for now will certainly limit it. Good news is for most people its not a key logger issue its a security issue on the main client.

The scary posts i saw today were the reason why i got a mobile authenticator. Having to type it in whenever i log in is really annoying damnit, but at least i feel safer now!

	Zepph:	It should remember your loation and only ask for it occassionally. Shouldnt have to pe it each time.
	TAEaeron:	I have an authenticator and whilst I like it; it always asks me for it when it's not at my PC lol

Wow, they pulled it all down to ultimately find out that it's not a hack, it's just people using others accounts?

Interesting, and it wasnt down for 8 hours! You mean I could have been playing when I was sleeping! Damn, I even read a book....was so lost....
