The facts
Here is what happened yesterday.
A discussion about politics was happening on #main, and for sure was something really with real manners (full of trashtalks etc.) we all know how it works.
It this moment seeing someone called "Mathi" a player who stole the name of mathi withouth [GM], talked on the main. This is where i got the idea, what if you can create a character name with "[ GM ]" (space in it) ?
At start i was like "no, impossible they obviously tested this", but to be sure i used the chat to test if it was possible, and god it was. So maybe character creation was possible : and boom! its where [ GM ] Vulcain, was born.
Now i can go ingame and put in #main, where the intense political discussion was hitting the climax
two sentences:
- pls calm down
- we will consider adding #politic channel
It was obviously a joke, and everyone was aware about this on #main, loled etc.
some GM was online and clearly did read #main at this moment.
My aim here was to show how it was easy to impersonate a gm, and this was a HUGE security flaw, because i could have create a character like [ GM ] Haru or [ GM ] Aloe for exemple, isn't it ? the diference ingame is really not so easily noticeable, because of narrow space in character name.
To be honest i was about to submit a ticket about this security flaw, but right now i'm doing one for a PERMA ban.
