The actual vulnerability AFAIK is from all versions of Linux. And since steam are so big, that would likely make them a bigger target for people. The actual accounts wouldn't lose details, but they would get stolen.

If we get several more relevant replies I (or maybe another mod) will make it sticky. Note the word relevant. No off-topic stuff that could go in the Inn ;)

I take it that from the screenshot @xiiMaRcLeoN posted, the troop limit is 333?

I don't know anything about it, but a quick look to me suggests it's clean (and not vulnerable - that I could see). But I would still use PayPal when ordering from them. From what I can also tell, they're using Kayako for support so you should be fine.

Well, simply put: what foreign languages can you speak? I can speak English and German (fairly well).

No actually, I would take it all websites are vulnerable unless you know that their server is not Linux.

Congratulations @EaglePrince! A much deserved win.

I've split the thread, edited my main post above to make sense in the new thread & added a less off-topic reply to the other thread.

I'm getting a boxed version. But I would recommend not buying online after what I've heard about ShellShock (the newest super computer virus) over the weekend. You can follow the link for more info.

The food gets consumed in the same amount of time. The only difference is the honour bonus - on normal rations I think off-hand it's 1 honour per food type given on a monthly basis.

Bread slows food production down. If you think about it, wheat gets taken to the stockpile, taken to the mill, turned into flour, taken back.etc. While in that time, an apple farmer may have taken one or two loads of apples to the granary. Also, bread takes up far more workers with little to no advantage over other food. The main thing that is taken into effect is the variety of food. Not what types, just how many and of what types. This is exactly what the honour bonus from the granary is based on - how many types of food you have. From what I remember happens (off hand) Apples are the quickest, second to Meat, Cheese and then Bread.

You're always at risk online - even on Google. One of my friends told me about people doing a test on Google, they reloaded it something like every five seconds for 24 hours, and for every X attempts, they got malware on their computer. The reason being that Google knows about the malware that people attempt to upload and are always checking for it - be clearly not every five seconds. I'll have to ask him about it again, I can't remember exactly now. What I recommend is to (as always) use caution. The rules of the internet: Never use sites you don't know Before you visit a site, check it with phishtank. Some types of malware can download instantly just by viewing a web page. There are other places you can check the safety of website such as Norton safe web. Make sure you have a great anti-virus. While windows defender is alright, it's by no means the best prevention against malware & virus'. MalwareBytesPro is free software that even picked up some kind of virus in the registry on my computer - which Windows Defender seems incapable of doing. Use downloads with caution. Don't download things from other sites unless you trust the source. And most importantly: Never just 'hand out' credit card details to surveys.etc. They are always scams - especially from 'getmeatticket'. I won't post a link, if anyone viewing this thread searches it & anything happens, I'm not responsible. TL; DR: Basically, to sum up, you are always at risk from malware on the internet, as long as you have a good firewall and anti-virus regularly running scans you should be fine. The shellshock virus only affects Linux systems, those people who have Windows X, don't worry. It mainly affects purchases, but in reality, everything you post (i.e. even your email). If you have any more questions, or anyone wants to add any comments do and I'll split the thread into The Open Castle Inn. :)

This isn't "just some virus", it's probably the worst exploit in Linux yet (which is what 99.9% of websites use). It's worse than the heart bleed bug a few months back, it is a vulnerability in Linux operating systems that allow hackers to inject software to remotely control the websites on that server, so it's pretty bad.

Well, that is pretty weird. :)

I would strongly recommend not buying online after what I've heard about ShellShock (the newest super computer virus) over the weekend. What are your thoughts, opinions.etc on ShellShock? You can follow the link for more info. EDIT: Edited post to make sense in new thread.

This sounds pretty good! I'll have to download it sometime and play it soon. Challenge accepted! :)

That does sound good, I must admit it's something I've greatly wanted since I first played Legends when it came out.

You knew I would answer before I even read the thread, didn't you? ;) It could be implemented fairly easily, but it's not at the top of the list right now, there are lots of more important things to get completed (such as the merging of the gallery and the main site for example) That's a minor job, but I'll add it to the ever growing queue for you.

Yes, you can manually install the patches from our download section. You're only forced to using steam. However, you do have to reinstall the game in order to alter patches added.

Thanks David, this really is, very helpful! :) I think this is probably the most detailed review I've read on it, it definitely deserves a rep point from me. The bbcode for tables is something that the forum by default, just doesn't have and there are no mods for it either so we're kind of stuck at lists.

I've split posts #14 and #15. There is no real cut-off point between on topic & off topic for the rest so I'll leave them here as it would be otherwise too tricky. Split thread: http://forums.stronghold-nation.com/topic/285-population-limit-for-players-castle/

I've bought it but haven't received it yet. I'll post in this thread when it comes.

Off-topic, isn't this thread going? Let's keep this on topic folks, it's not going anywhere. ;)

Maybe player created maps would be better for playing SHC2 then, since you can add estates in those but can't use estates when they aren't there... Personally, I'm looking forward to see what maps people can come up with.

Well, I can see good and bad in that - it stops players from mass producing in one estate (like me) but it's too standard and would be better just putting a limit on carter posts.
