Attention to staff Members MC-Market DataBase

[thebaum64]

Nothing is 100% secure.

Though with TFA, if you use your phone they literally can't get in. It would be impossible for them too. That is why we highly recommend it. They may get your password, but, you would be alerted and your account would safe, then you would swiftly change our other passwords that would match this one. TFA is the closet thing to 100% security that you can have, unless you have a 100 character password lol. Also to reiterate what Bos said, the leak was fake, basically to scare users.

Most DB drops are inside jobs. What protects us against a disgruntled staff member? Like say someone who has access to the DB gets demoted, and they decide to enact revenge... or even worse, hold the community hostage? And not to dumb down your role, but what exactly do you do? It's not exactly rocket surgery to keep the database secure.

I just manage the website's systems, databases, protection,... Even if a "disgruntled staff member" would decide to take out and leak data, everything (confidential) is still encrypted and there is close to nothing (Besides an e-mail address, possibly) that I would deem as confidential and at risk. Besides, the impact anything like that would have on somebody's reputation (Like mine) is of an unrecoverable scale.

Idk, I see you over emphasis all the time that you're paid to do that. I've maintained many Xenforo based websites in the past... really not much to it. So I was trying to better understand exactly what your role is.

I highly doubt that, as I never (if even ever) post on the forums.

Ajdin, you said you have the database because you have looked through it. Mind posting that here since it has none of our info in it? Just so we can be sure.

 

[TellingMom]

Ajdin We gonna get that leaked DB?

Leak a DB of a forum on MCM? That would go against several rules.
If you wish, you can PM some of the LF members that got it and ask them.

 

[TellingMom]

You're telling the community that it's not real, but at the sametime, it's kinda hard to trust you. Prove it. That's all we're asking.

I have it downloaded, I think it's fake tbh.

 

[TellingMom]

I have it downloaded, I don't think it's fake tbh.

Can you privately get me the DB some how? I don't want you to be banned for releasing it on the site.

 

[Yeti]

Ok, well if it does indeed violate the site rules, I don't want you to be banned. Can you privately get me the DB some how?

Yeah alright, also just edited my post -- I had typed "I don't think it's fake tbh" because I had originally typed "I don't think it's real tbh"....

tl;dr, I think it's fake, I edited my post by mistake.

It's an old German forum from 2011, should be no concern

 

[TellingMom]

Thanks Yeti for the DB. I've looked it over. I believe Ajdin. It's not MCM
Looks like some German site. Lot's of *.de emails. UserIDs don't match up with the UserIDs on MCM. The only link I could find to MCM was someone registered with an mc-market.org email address.
