Well, now it's true that Shiv knows at least one of our IPs, so I guess we're all vulnerable now. Damn Plarium for letting this happen!

joke or not just didn't think it was appropriate 

even if its public 

every pirate here is doing their best to try and blame all their problems on others who they claim are cheating....while quite frankly they are just getting their behind kicked by someone who is simply BETTER than them.

don't forget FREE RUBIES 

Nika Alexandra  / Olga / Nifera / Kara Velesa/Laura

Apparently shiv has access to the IP addresses of all players

Wonder how plarium will explain this as they have guarranteed they cannot be hacked

Nightmare

Are you embarrassed that you have been exposed as a rual puppet ?

Are you proud of the fact that shiv made your alt a bigshot ?

You know where I am then come get me

And I really hope EURUs pending attacks on April 15 against Silberschlag are successful

No $ for cheats!

  In game cheaters. I have held off on judgement. This is not a bash on rual or any other bh as a group. 3 times i have seen fleets over 250m today saw another. This was just a general guess on the low side after taking into account dredds etc. Possible yes,in a way, that they are all spending several thousand dollars each a week to do this? If thats the truth great for Plarum if not...you need to get the game in order before we all start hacking and cheating, well not me, I will just stop everything but maybe playing the lighthouse but cashing like i do weekly not worth it. I coin enough to say that its impossible to mount that much offence and have high numbers in offence kills without massive amounts of money weekly.

All suspicious activity should be reported here: https://plariumsupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

The 250 million fleet attack Cabirdman was referring too was from one player! Very impressive if it was done legally, but you have to ask the question?

Has anybody else experienced raids with those sort of numbers from a single player?

I only brought it up because someone inquired what could be done with an IP address.  What I stated earlier is true, despite the level of difficulty.

I asked that but I was being sarcastic, because hiding your IP has nothing to do with security. It's like hiding your address from a pizza shop that should deliver you the pizza that you're ordering from them.

Every site you visit sees your IP, every person you talk to on Skype and similar tools can get it,... (unless you're VPN/Tor/... protected, which most people aren't, nor they should be).

If someone's IP can be abused for hacking, than that's what their problem is, not that someone knows the IP itself. "Shiv knows our IPs" is a ridiculous accusation that shows only that those spreading it don't know anything about the subject and should not be taken seriously.

Not even your standard Windows systems are that open; you'd need to break in, not to mention that there is usually a modem between that doesn't allow incoming traffic. Not impossible, at least for average Joe's computer, but not nearly as simple as you're trying to make it sound. IMO, not worth wasting time hacking like that over a silly game. It would be easier to use such skills, if you had them, in a more lucrative fashion and then just buy your victories here.
