Title: Stats for leaving newbie protection? Post by: Swisher on August 10, 2008, 08:40:53 PM So I just started this game 2 days ago, my current server is 1050mhz CPU, 74mb RAM, 9kb/s bandwidth(capped myself to stay in newbie protection). What would you guys recommend as minimum security for a server just leaving newbie? I have access to a v1.01 firewall protect and password protect, is this good enough to leave newbie mode with? While I've capped myself, I have stacked 6,500HPD, so i can upgrade my server to run both of them. I just dont know whats good enough defense to leave newbie :confused2:

Every time I've been seriously hacked, it's been becasue I pissed someone off. Also, when I hack people, I usually just look around, maybe mess a little; but unless I have a reason or it's an inactive server, I don't do anything.
The one time I've gone into a server with an intent to cause trouble was once (right before Hatejacket took me out this last time; unrelated) to take out someone's Virus Capture on a File Share that I was Capping already.

Title: Re: Stats for leaving newbie protection? Post by: RaiseCain on August 11, 2008, 02:53:35 AM You should invest in a high log deleter, as it is the first line of defense. Use as much proxies as you can and delete/modifie all the logs you leave behind. Defenses are only nessecary if you lack a log deleter.
