[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: Recent petitions you know you didn't submit

	Orlyia posted: Last evening we started getting reports from players about emails they received concerning petitions apparently submitted on their WoW accounts that they know they did not generate. These were specifically concerning 'removing authenticators'. Your WoW account should not be in danger from this, since it appears all they were in possession of was an email list. Now would be an excellent time to consider adding an authenticator of your own if you have not already done so. Also, think about making an email account exclusively for use with Battle.net. Account names under Battle.net are easily changed by just changing the email address connected to the account. It also never hurts to do scans of your system, and check to make certain that your email account itself is secure. I would also like to remind you it's NEVER a good idea to reuse passwords between games, websites, applications and your email. Some of these articles may prove helpful.
