Please ignore any PMs of this nature that you receive, or PM an admin. You can be sure a member is not an admin by viewing their profile.	Posted by Malice#2426 on Oct 23, 2011, 5:11:40 PM Alpha Member Quote this Post

Maybe the devs should put a "Devs will never ask for your password" in their signatures's :P Above content may contain traces of nonsense. Reality is simply an unrealistic version of online gaming.	Posted by wakko#3919 on Oct 23, 2011, 5:22:07 PM Alpha Member Quote this Post

There's been a few idiots running around and I want to make sure the message gets across and not lost in a PM box. ;) Join the Veterans of War! See the thread in Off-topic for details.
