| 10:41.58 | Ivnedar | that's the sort of thing you get with an open api :D |
| 11:04.00 | ZorbaTHut | I will admit I'm amused by the second screenshot. |
| 11:32.03 | Ivnedar | I'm amused by the name :) |
| 11:34.35 | Ivnedar | oh dear, gold spammers have realised that any text inside {} blocks doesn't get forwarded to carbine when spam is reported |
| 11:35.14 | Ivnedar | so now you get gold spam that looks like "hi friend{url.of.goldspam.site}, how are you today?{body of spam about their prices, how fast their service is}. Cya later! |
| 11:35.45 | Ivnedar | Carbine gets a report of spam with the evidence of "hi friend, how are you today? Cya later!" |
| 11:37.57 | Ivnedar | it's interesting to watch the arms race :) |
| 13:48.34 | ZorbaTHut | how did they even make that bug? |
| 14:02.30 | Torhal | ZorbaTHut: Apparently brackets are used for item codes. |
| 14:02.34 | Torhal | http://www.reddit.com/r/WildStar/comments/29etyz/if_youve_gotten_in_trouble_for_abusing_the_report/ |
| 14:03.10 | Torhal | So much for sanitizing user input! |
| 14:03.25 | ZorbaTHut | hah, ouch |
| 14:08.44 | Ivnedar | They also attach a sandwich to their spam, so you can't delete the mail |
| 14:09.00 | Ivnedar | if you do take the sandwich, you can no longer use the report spam button |
| 14:09.22 | ZorbaTHut | that's rather hilarious |
| 14:09.58 | Ivnedar | given that, I bet it wouldn't be too hard to add some characters into the mail that caused the report feature to silently fail |
| 14:10.09 | Ivnedar | or worse yet, execute your own code ... |
| 14:10.36 | Ivnedar | that's a scary thought, hit report spam, it pretends to, but steals your details :O |
| 14:10.50 | Ivnedar | (your username/email is available to the addon api) |
| 14:11.53 | ZorbaTHut | from what I've seen so far, I don't think it can do that - it's just that it strips things that look vaguely like item links |
| 14:12.12 | ZorbaTHut | whereas the actual chat display code, when it sees something that looks kinda like an item link but isn't, just displays it as plaintext |
| 14:12.36 | ZorbaTHut | the fix is just to make those two functions behave the same way, whether that is "strip bad item links entirely" or "display bad item links as plaintext". Either way, problem's solved. |
| 14:12.43 | Ivnedar | it's going in and out of their hidden api and the public one |
| 14:13.04 | ZorbaTHut | The ultra-ironic part is that, if they keep chat logs, this makes it super-hilariously-easy to ban spammers. |
| 14:13.12 | Ivnedar | so the report spam button takes that mail item and passes it into their api to "prepare player report" |
| 14:13.21 | Ivnedar | then the output of that comes back and gets loaded into the display form |
| 14:13.38 | Ivnedar | then you click submit and it takes the content of that form and submits it |
| 14:13.54 | Ivnedar | this is mail, not chat |
| 14:14.12 | Ivnedar | chat's surprisingly quiet for gold spam |
| 14:14.57 | Ivnedar | early on, they worked out that arena teams could be created on guest accounts and you can invite anyone to your team. the invite gives your team name and description |
| 14:15.16 | Ivnedar | so they'd spam invites to everyone, which would force a popup in the middle of the screen with their ad |
| 14:15.34 | Ivnedar | eventually people disabled the pvp ui addon completely to stop it |
| 14:15.44 | Ivnedar | so they moved to sending sandwiches :D |

| 15:27.16 | Ivnedar | amusing bug as a side effect of the costume ui bug |
| 15:27.21 | Ivnedar | character ended up with no head |
| 15:27.29 | Ivnedar | persistent too |
| 15:27.58 | Imhothar | it sorta looks like it has a head with one eye |
| 15:28.05 | Imhothar | a very little head though |
| 15:28.25 | Ivnedar | the eye is floating in front of the stump |
| 15:28.33 | Imhothar | it looks attached |
| 15:28.43 | Ivnedar | second image is from the side |
| 15:28.45 | Imhothar | from some angles |
| 15:28.58 | Imhothar | wonder if other players see him like this |
| 15:29.02 | Ivnedar | they do :) |
| 15:29.16 | Imhothar | so at least its deterministic |
| 15:29.16 | Ivnedar | last image is the character select screen too :D |
| 15:29.19 | Imhothar | now get a dev on the server |
| 15:30.10 | Ivnedar | the costume ui has a bug where equipping an item into a costume slot triggers a reset of the costume ui's state, which saves the current state and then unequips the item you just equipped |
| 15:30.21 | Ivnedar | any change to inventory also triggers a reset |
| 15:30.25 | Ivnedar | which reequips the item |
| 15:30.58 | Ivnedar | that loops until you close the ui, hopefully with the item in the right place, but in the mean time, you flicker like crazy as it goes in and out |
| 15:31.22 | Imhothar | sounds like you shouldn't be epileptic then |
| 15:31.35 | Ivnedar | they ended up in a state where the head model hasn't been replaced, but the costume model has been removed |
| 15:31.40 | Ivnedar | so head slot is completely empty :D |
| 15:33.16 | Imhothar | it certainly looks fancy and alien and stuff |
