In gvg today, when we, AvantHeim, was facing Dispeller*, majority of our guild members started receiving whisper from random strangers. Namely PorMungDie, and then the two in the screenshot.

These whispers crashes our client when we receive it on 1) All chat tab, 2) when opening the whisper tab, and 3) also when we just simply changing our chat tab settings like from Guild Chat to Shout chat. It crashes.

Evidence 1 (from OneL, see the number of our guildmates got DC)

Evidence 2 (from OneL, when opening the whisper tab, for most people it crash. When it didn’t crash, there is also nothing to be seen from the wshiper)

Evidence 4 (from sonnnn1)

As seen from the evidences, this crashes more than half of our total guild members during GvG. And when we reconnect to Varena server, Orsha, outside of the gvg location. It still crashes us when we try to open the whisper.

The people who whispered to my guildmates and crashes us are Level 1 and most likely a newly created account separated from their main account to prevent any possible tracing and protected themselves when they execute the whisper crash exploit.

I can provide you a list of our members whose clients are crashed by this whisper exploit upon your request.

Should you require any further details, please let me know.

Thank you.

That ZYTHS… guy was an spectator on GvG earlier. I was there also, watching the fight. He was a level 1 character (swordie or archer). His name was so long that it caught my attention. Can’t believe that some people will go this low just to win. Lol.

(Unfortunately, I didn’t take a screenshot because I didn’t know it’ll be use for this lowly kind of hack. And my fps went crazy so I left spectating halfway)

An envious man can never surpass what’s ahead of him, thus he will try to pull that man down with him whatever it takes.

#11

that is fine, i’m ok.
we jus accidentally slip in 16/15.
But i think
17 people on 1st game
27 people on 2nd game
25 people on 3rd game.
is not an accident. + dont worry about the evidence, everybody should see it soon.
And i’m glad that u worry about us. XD

I heard sometimes Satan does a mass targeted whispering to crash people’s minds in asylums.

hook64 baby~

/crashplayer [familyName]
Crashes a player and sometimes stops them from being able to log back on.
Warning: This may be tracable back to your account, consider using on an alternate account.

This is different, it looks like they’re using mass whispers to cause lag and create a client freeze.

#22

and thats what hook64 does.
you won’t know til you see it yourself.
they spam mass whispers and crashes the player.

#23

It’s a hook64 lifetime subscription feature isn’t it? The other feature is crashing a channel. I think it’s just sad the game has no chat cooldown and crashes just because of too much text received.
