Article 1

You know you've played to much Thang when...

1) When you take a toy boomerang and ask your friends for a duel.
2) When you see girls you run away cause you think they're going to mass heal you to death.
3) When your friend hits another friend you say 'Damn stop ks me!'
4) When it's a Halloween party and your friend is wearing black clothes and cape. Then you get all your friends cause you think it's Razin.
5) When you lend your toy boomerang to a friend and when he gives it back to you, you tell him 'WTF it's got low durability' and then go to repair it
6) When you go to a smith and ask how much it will take to refine your Ebony Upper Armor.

Article 2
There has been a scare since the hacking incident. I am posting this by itself because it is very important for everyone to know.

ARE YOU SAFE:
This mostly depends on you. Allot of people get hacked (Not scammed by giving out a password) because there computer is vulnerable to simple hacking programs. There are many ways these programs can slip by anti-virus programs. The reason why, is because the program itself is not detected as a threat. All spyware is a information gathering database. Anti-Virus programs are looking for software that alter programs and cause software drivers to fail. So now knowing the difference, if spyware is allowed onto a computer, then you have allowed a security breech. This is where hackers have the advantage, See, the spyware feeds all keyed (Key loggers) info to a simple format database setup by hackers. This allows them to see all inputted info on your computer. Take Thang Online for example. They see the steps you take on the computer, from launching the program, to entering a username and password.

WHERE DOES SPYWARE COME FROM:
Spyware is generally uploaded through programs you install onto your computer. Screen Savers, Music from a P2P, even your junk mail. If you use illegal sites this will upload the spyware. Also Adult sites will upload these programs. The worse thing I have seen is when you buy a new computer with pre-loaded programs, it usually has spyware already loaded in it.

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF:
There are several ways to protect yourself. The easiest way is to not use illegal sites or P2P for music and movies. Also make sure you have all security updates from Microsoft. There is also a great program called Anti-Spyware available free from Microsoft. You can download it here:

OUR APOLOGY TO YOU ALL:
When operating a online game, security is a very touchy subject.
Although, there are lots of matters we need to keep cuild our security for your safe and we are truly sorry about that.
We'll understand this as our chance to be more aware of those abusive matters, and try our best to set some strong security measures.

Thank you.
