Allience name change's ^ sending message ingame

i know this sounds lame but when your allience name is being changed within a recruitment message then it affects the whole allience, any1 interested in seeing what i mean then try sending the word selection in a message it will be changed to chooseion - it dont matter if in the middle of a sentence or joined up to another word.

if this could be sorted out asap!!!

thnx

Hear Hear, Senting our forum address to allies and noobs alike involves actually catching them on MSN and giving them the link, due to the fact that it is altered via the ingame PM system.

i thought i would bump this up a bit as the problem is still very much a problem to our allience, if you could fix this problem it would be appreciated.


selection = when sent through the ingame messaging becomes chooseion

Its most likely to prevent ether a sql injection or an XSS attack.

If you must send a URL with the word selection in it use the hex equiv in its place. I just tested and it doesnt cause any sql errors so I'm going to post it. As for XSS I am going to be emailing the admin shortly detailing means of preventing such an attack.
