[It Wasn't] Hacking Attempt

[marcotheminer]

I was changing something. It should be fixed now. Nothing to worry about.

All good guys!



It is now gone.

[marcotheminer]

Very weird things happening..

[deadley]

Yup it's happened with me too. I was on shocked and run my antivirus at the same moment.

[Tongkar]

I just had the same issue was only for about 5 min. Should I be worried.

[wccdev]

are we safe?

Looks like they are doing some changes in forum, lets wait for response from theymos or badbear

[marcotheminer]

Another weird thing.

My trust rating is 13 when it was 1 earlier. I hope we are safe.

It was happened also to me, but not everything was fixed ...  I hope theymos will give us a clarification (if it is possible).

My trust rating is 13 when it was 1 earlier. I hope we are safe.

My trust score has gone up too..a little bit too much.



I think Theymos is making some changes to forum.

don't want to click the link, here the post:

The trust score numbers are now slightly different:
- The first number is the trust score.
- The second number is the number of unique users who have given that person negative feedback.
- The third number is the number of unique users who have given that person positive feedback.
- The fourth number was removed.

I also completely changed the trust score algorithm to this:

Code:

if there are no negative ratings
	score = 0
	for each rating, oldest to newest
		if this rater has already been counted
			continue
		score += min(10, round_up(months since rating))
else
	score = unique_positive - 2^(unique_negative)
	if score >= 0
		start_time = time of first negative
		score = unique_positive since start_time - unique_negative since start_time
		if(score < 0)
			return ??? (orange)
			
move score to range [-9999,9999]
return score

This algorithm is a little slower than the previous one. Post here if you think you see extra slowness due to this change. Maybe I need to add extra caching to compensate.

Also post here if someone has a trust score that seems wrong.

I was going to change it so that everyone with 0 trust had orange trust, but I decided that this looked bad and changed it back.

Got the same trust score

I got the hacking attempt message when I tried to post in the DaDice thread. It didn't look like my post was posted initially however my post was later replied to so it obviously went through.

It probably had something to do with theymos updating the trust system.

There was actually a message that said hacking attempt or is that just what you guys are calling it?

Look at the screenshot in the OP. I received a similar message.

There is no screenshot?  .

there was an alert message for few minutes like 1-2 minutes with warning hacking attempts

check first post of this thread, screenshot is there

Imgur links aren't showing up for me for some reason. There's nothing there unless I quote it. I was trying to get imgur to load a few hours ago but nothing as well.

What's even more interesting here is what changes theymos might be making to the trust system.   Here he says that the trust system algorithm isn't very good. I wonder what changes he might be making!
