I recently discoverd that your account name is sent to the clients in the reply (0x95) to a 0x94 (request monster/player name). Could anyone please tell me why the #$%!"# gravity has made it like this? Whats next? Passwords in chatroom topics or what?

It's loads of fun though, meny people have their reall name and year of birth as account names, like
foo84. It's fun fun to walk up to them and say "Hi there foo, your 18 years old, born 1984". Though, it's kinda evil, so I've stop doing it

Oh, and while talking 'bout names. In chatrooms people are identified by their player name. I'm just woundering, as you can change your name kinda easy (softice: s 0 l ffffffff "name"; e
"newname"), wouldnt it be possible to get other people banned from the chat by taking their names?
Possible chatroom takeover? lol not that it would be any dissaster, It just came to my mind.

yeah, a lot of that is possible.

the reason your account name is sent to the clients is b/c gravity had the account names displayed after the characters names in alpha, and they probably originally had it like that in beta
example: Sasamichan (Sasami)
Username (Account) was how they were all displayed.

It should be possible to make a hack to display the accountnames next to the username again..

oh, it is definitely a possible hack, this was on the list of things I gave gravity that is going to be fixed.
