02-07 [Upd#5] Objects closed - Omerta hacked?

Due "whatever" reason.. some people call it a bug, some people call it something with the database, some people its a mysterious link again..

But this afternoon we saw with in the hour a money loss of over 800 Million and it kept dropping.

Object owners seemed to mysteriously lost large amounts of money, sometimes up to $200mil per person, without any traces. Admins could not find where the money went to either; it was just suddenly lower than before.



After the object owners went to complain in #help the objects got closed down.

A total of over 1 billion dollar got lost due this.

We have no clue when the objects will be open again.


UPDATE:
Objects have been opened again. It seems the casino owners who lost money wont receive compensation, even tho this was not a bug, and also no one gained anything from it.

Update 4th July:
The troubles are far from over, it seems. After first the object owners loosing money, now it's up to some regular players which are having the same problem. Admins do not seem to have a good explanation about what is going on, but they did say "someone is on our db", meaning someone has hacked himself into the database where all the player data is stored of Omerta, and changed money of certain players there manually, resulting in money loss without any actual transfers. As we speak, the game itself is having large troubles as well. Nobody can login anymore, lackeys aren't doing their job and bullets nor prices are changing.

Full log between me (Rix) and Veronica about this, including logs of Misshysteria and CorluKa.

Interesting parts from the full logs:
[CorluKa] second person today
[CorluKa] someone is on database
[CorluKa] e have to wait until tomorrow
[CorluKa] fuck
[CorluKa] we*
[VeroAfk] well i had 12 mills
[VeroAfk] and it was gone in few secs
[CorluKa] dont know
[CorluKa] whta the fuck
[CorluKa] is going on
[VeroAfk] :|

[Misshysteria|around] yeah i saw your log, but i don't know what it is yet
[Misshysteria|around] i am trying to get as much info as possible
[VeroAfk] hm oke
[VeroAfk] did it happend to more or only me?
[Misshysteria|around] not sure yet
[Misshysteria|around] you are the first i hear about it
[Misshysteria|around] well we are still investigating

Update:
All problems with Omerta itself, such as logging in and inactive lackeys, have been fixed very quickly. However, in the past hour, over $300mil has been lost again.

Update:
I managed to get an official answer from #help on this situation. Read below.
The official answer/statement is just as professional as we are used from our magnificent crew.

Update:
Another statement has been added. Thanks to Maki` for answering our questions professionally.

Probably last update on this matter:
The fog of mystery has been lifted after we were approached by a person who claimed he was the one behind all this. Read the full story here.
statements
Rocer: Omerta does not refund for bugs - BUT - this was NOT a bug. It was down to mischief and we are still looking for the mischief maker. When we find that account it will be pilloried. We won't change policy for this.

kiti`vbusy: we cannot pay back these losing





Official statement from #help:
[Rix] Can I please get an official answer or statement for our newssite (OBN) why you are not closing down the game for the time the problems are still present, why you are not refunding the money while it is not a bug but a hack and if you are thinking about a rollback? Also I demand to know if any personal data such as emails and (hopefully hashed) passwords have been stolen.
[kiti`vbusy] !done Rix this is a exaggration man
* Helpster sets ban on *!*[email protected]
* You have been kicked from #help by Helpster (this is a exaggration man)

Part two:
[Maki`] hi Rix
[Rix] Even IF I was exagorating, you could stillanswer my questions
[Maki`] which would be?
[Rix] Can I please get an official answer or statement for our newssite (OBN) why you are not closing down the game for the time the problems are still present, why you are not refunding the money while it is not a bug but a hack and if you are thinking about a rollback? Also I demand to know if any personal data such as emails and (hopefully hashed) passwords have been stolen.
[Rix] Those
[Rix] I am very worried for my email and pw's
[Becherovka] yeah i dont see no exaggeration in those questions either
[Badeendje] which questions
[Maki`] as we, the admins, dont have a positiv feedback from the dev's side we cant give you any
[Badeendje] you only make a statement
[Becherovka] do u even have any idea about whats going on to your DB Badeendje??
[Rix] Is there someone else which can answer those questions then?
[Badeendje] no, neither do you
[Becherovka] it seems you dont know anythin either
[Rix] I understand you guys can't as helpers
[Badeendje] there's a big difference between management/devs & crew
[Badeendje] crew cannot view database etc... etc.. etc...
[Badeendje] so we have no clue were all the money went
[Rix] Then please ask a dev
[Becherovka] drunkengamer taking revenge or so ?
[Maki`] we cant ask dev's as they're working to fix this
[Becherovka] :D
[Rix] Can we perhaps get some answers from Brando or Bramlerose then?
[Maki`] if they'd be here, sure
[Maki`] but they arent im afraid
[Rix] You have no idea where they are?
[Maki`] i guess at the office, but i dont no
[Rix] Can you perhaps either call or text them then, being that it's safe to say this is a time of crisis for Omerta
[Rix] And we would really appreciete a public statement
[Maki`] there'll be one im sure
[Maki`] just be patient a little
[Rix] WEll it's hard to be patient if everything is falling appart around us
[Rix] well not literraly
[Rix] But the ingame economy is
[Maki`] sure i can understand that
[Maki`] but thats how it is atm, believe me ... i also dont need this all :D
[Rix] Alright
[Rix] so you have no way to contact them at this moment?
[Maki`] sure we do, and im sure someone else already did, and that they're supporting dev's to fix this
[Maki`] whatever they do, its OMerta related for sure ;D
[Rix] Well if you can reach them, maybe you can ask them to close the game down entirely for now, being that a lot of players are asking for it
[Rix] To be our voice to them, so to say
[Maki`] alright Rix, anything else then?
[Maki`] btw, am i in the news now? :o
[Rix] Yes you are
[Rix] And no this is it, please tell them our message :)
[Rix] I will update the article with this log in a few minutes :p
[Maki`] woey im the news :)
[Rix] Hehe
[Maki`] i'll be famous one day!
[Rix] done me or devoice me so I can copy this log :p
[Maki`] !done Rix

So we cant run objects or do orgcrimes or even withdraw cash without the fear of loosing cash.
Some people lose 1mil some 170mil and when you go to #help these fuckers will say they wont refund??fucking joke they are and their ''policy''
also:
I think if we all logged out but i mean all people and not play for a while maybe then it would teach them useless faggot admins to actually deal and help with our problems rather than take cover behind this policy shit

They say, we can use lackeys and clicklimit is ok (so that means, SPEND REAL MONEY)
On question how we gonna buy bullets and other things, they answered WITH OMERTA MONEY..
When I asked how to spend omerta money when we lose it, they dont have a answer....

Omerta is totaly free game? we can just say lol....

First lackeys (buy DC)
Then bullet lackey so ppl would buy more DCs
Now this... simply BUY DC...

<NoobSurv> [Economy] Money total: -$228,669,834 to $49,300,128,897

Hearing from more people that they suddenly lost money. This is really going out of hands. They should close the game now imho, fix this shit and then do a rollback till Saturday before the money drop in the screen above.

This week the "crew" for as far as you can call them like that said that it was a backdoor attack. And that it was fixed. Now there is someone in there DB.

The point here is that they lied, obviously this aint fixed since this afternoon another 200million vanished.
So far the crew has NO idea where it's comming from, and imo they lost control of the game here.

Maybe it's about time they stop creating new things like lackey and start fixing bugs/exploits etc.
Example the bug in BG Joe, it was reported 1 year ago and still aint fixed. The response from the crew ( #help ) was "low priority".

Now after 1 year they proven there point, that BG is a low priority...

Seems like Turkuz is quiting the game (again), just like after one of their highranks got killed and after MaFia couldn't kill some brugs in 1 shot :)))

You're doing it wrong MaFia, when you say you quit and you have 42% onlinetime, you certainly are doing it wrong :P
