Yeah, of your guildies. No one else gives a shit nor needs to. Of course, if I were a member of TMO I'd be reconsidering how much information I'd want to share, since it evidently won't be very secure.

Honestly, is this thread anything more than innuendo intended to make TR look bad before it came out that you had exploits posted on your forums? Because as an unbiased observer I just don't see any other reason to bring this to the server's attention in this manner.

It's definitely entertaining if nothing else.


There's not a reason not to make it public knowledge; but yeah, one of the possible realities here is pre-emptive damage control.

I would say this point is legit.

Also, as our Swedish friend pointed out, everything happening behind the scenes = bad.

And this is why people read the forums, because they want to know what's going on. Yeah, its guild drama, but everyone continues to open the thread...
