I think trying to avoid being hacked is not enough there should be a system for it. When you play "Ragnarok", Pangya and other online games they usually has a security system which helps people to be secured from being hacked

http://i18.tinypic.com/5xt12xi.gif gaia has security systems in place to prevent someone from hacking their servers and stealing your account info. your passwords are encrypted so they wouldn't be able to be viewed.

the rest of it is NOT something gaia could do though. they CAN'T protect you while on other sites. they CAN'T stop you from downloading malware, they CAN'T stop you from telling someone your password either.

you have to stop expecting everyone else to do your job. the security of your computer and your account is something you need to take care of, you are the only one who has the ability to.

arrow @MyOwnBestCritic- people don't even think about it. when people ask stuff like a/s/l people are all too willing to answer. places like myspace like you to put in your local area so people can search for other local people.

arrow @Ace Zero- an anti-virus program is linked to in the downloads section.

...I was almost phished. gonk I got a PM similar to what you typed/ copied and pasted (whichever it was) as an example, and I read it because the person was a "friend" on Gaia. She was trying to get me to "become" a mod with her...Apparently, this person was lying.(but I knew that, so I just unfriended her.) Sadly, I didn't report this person...

Thanks A LOT for posting this. :]

http://i18.tinypic.com/5xt12xi.gif if you didn't delete the PM you can still report them. next time, don't let them off the hook though 3nodding .

glad you enjoyed the guide (and didn't fall for the scam).
