There was a point in time where TNT had banned all CSS coding in shops. Whatever happened to that?. I know when I returned I was absolutely amazed to see it implemented again.

really. I'd *sure miss* going to a shop and hearing bad music, hunting for invisible prices, deciphering faded shaking upsidedown pictures, and all those scroll boxes inside of scroll boxes inside of scroll boxes.

Thanks for the info.But if the account is under 13, the person cannot insert the scripting, right? Because under 13 account cannot change/add anything into UserLookUp and Shops. So, means he cannot use my account to spread, right?

If so, I'm just glad!

I'd like it if an account had to be a certain age to put in any kind of HTML, CSS, etc. That way, only established, legitimate accounts could do it. Then, people who were frozen for putting cookie grabbers in their shops wouldn't be able to do it again for a certain amount of time, even if they started a new account.

This wouldn't stop stolen accounts being used for cookie grabbing though unfortunately. Personally I think shops and user lookups should be a lot less limited in how customised they can be. And this is from someone who's spent a *long* time working out the code for her userlookup. I know it' seems harsh, but I'd rather that than have to be avoiding shops constantly.

Oh, me too. Wouldn't it be sad if we no longer got to scroll through six pages of dubious quality "adoptables" and quiz results? And I would certainly miss the blinding backgrounds that so many shops feature!

TNT may or may not change what we, as users, can and cannot put on our lookups, in our shops, galleries, pet descriptions, or petpages. I think out of everything, if things were made even more strict, I would miss petpages the most. Why? Because I have my petpages set up as help pages and so do many others, as well as being used for guild "webbies".

When all this started in December (geez, almost 3 months of this stuff now!), I was one of the people saying disable everything. I'm not so sure now. I think of the site spotlight of the week, lookup of the week, gallery spotlight and the thought that those would all go away saddens me. the gallery spotlight could technically continue, but it sure wouldn't be the same without the spiffy backgrounds, blogs, etc. that people spend so much time and thought on.

I do think something will have to be done, though. And unfortunately it's all the honest players who once again will be "punished" for the actions of a few people who are determined to make things miserable for the rest of us.

It just seems to me with the programmers the site has, there should be a way to completely disable whatever it is that these people are exploiting. In other words, there's a security hole or a weakness that should be fixed from TNT's side. I'm not blaming TNT, I think they do their best, it's a huge site and lots to take care of. But if someone's able to insert jscript or whatever they're doing, then obviously there's something that TNT's missed.

I wouldn't miss music, I will say that! And I would love to see all those fake RE and "what petpet are you" things gone from shops and lookups. But that's a whole different topic.

Hopefully, TNT will be able to figure out how this is being done and stop it cold - forever - without having the entire site in an uproar. I'd just like them to be able to find out WHO ... and take them out legally.

Well, besides all info posted above..

Legal action, as I have come to hear, is taking place.

At this moment, a friend is speaking to TNT (through "LawyerBot")... they're collecting heaps of information.

I believe they have a sufficient amount of information on Infamous.. I think they are starting to concetrate on Chase (commonly, "Kaos")

Good.

Well it's about time.

I haven't done PIN yet, should I do it? if so, should I put it on everything?

I definitely would.I think you can put it on the bit where you change your email which is especially useful because it stops your account getting stolen. I've got PIN on everything,

It's about time. Any word on why they didn't take this course of action sooner?

Maybe they were gathering enough evidence to have a good court case?

Right. Unless they have parental permission, like I've had since I was 11.
