Passwords post from Sherrif Steele

Hey all,

Apost on Henry's Blog came out today, from Sherrif Steele instead this time. It's all about 'hackers' - people who trick you into giving them your password, then ifyou were tricked, will do what they like to your account. Here's the post:

Ask Sheriff Steele: Passwords January 24th,2011

Hello citizens of Pandanda Land!

All of you know that I want you to keep your accounts safe, so you can keep on having fun in Pandanda. I received a question the other day that I want to share with you all. It is about a problem that seems to be happening more and more. I hope you will pay close attention!

Dear Sheriff Steele,

Someone in Pandanda told me that if I tell them my password, they will get me a free Elite membership. Somebody else said they would give me millions of coins if I tell them my password. I really want to be an Elite member! Is it ok to tell them my password?

Signed,
A Confused Panda


Dear Confused,

No, it is not ok to tell them your password. If you tell your password to someone, they can go on your account and do whatever they want. They could sell all of your things, delete all of your friends, and even get your account banned. If this happens, it is your responsibility. Pandanda will not be able to give your items back to you or restore your friends list.

It is impossible for anyone to give you millions of coins. And the offer to buy you an Elite membership is probably not true. You have no way to know for sure if they are telling the truth, or if they are just trying to get your account. Do you want to risk losing your account forever?

Please, do not let anyone convince you to tell them your password. Another player told me that someone said they would ban him if he didn’t tell them his password. That is also impossible. No player can ban another player, even if they send lots of reports. Only Moderators and I can ban players.

Be smart and safe, my panda friends! Keep your password to yourself, and change it soon if you have ever told it to anyone.

I think it's great that Sherrif Steele has come out and publicly discussed this matter. Hacking is a Pandanda crime if you ask me, and if Pandanda find exactly which panda's are the hackers, their accounts should be deleted immediately. Sadly this wouldn't stop the hackers - they'd just make another account. >_> 

Have you also realised the amount of posts that come out of Henry's Blog that aren't from Henry? Heaps! And this is great, as we hear from more than one person. 

Bendy :)
