I'm not sure if this goes here or not... but I just now found that someone can seal an envelope with any name on it by changing their char. name to whatever they want and sealing it. Is this a CRB or not?

This was an old issue and was supressed last time, so I suspect this'll be locked and edited soon.

Yes, CRB due to it being abusing the programming. Couldn't knw that since no one talks about it ... but hey.

I dont remember this issue being brought up but I wouldnt call it a breach myself, there is no real abuse of programming here.

I would assume this would fall under some type of "forgery" in-game.
Not an abuse of the mechanics. It would be like me writing a note and signing it as a different name. Names of notes thus are always at least a little suspect, and I consider them only 90% trustworthy.

But that's just how I would view the situation.

Ever since I first sealed an envelope I saw how easy that would be to abuse, it's pretty obvious. I think envelopes are just like copy and pasted events, if you're dumb enough to trust them 100% it's your own fault if you get tricked. But at least with envelopes it looks like there's away to avoid that, I see there's a Seal listed under tools and I assume that's what beeswax is for.

ROTFL Forgery eh? Completely negates the idea of sealed envenlope security.

I do remember the previous discussion on this and it is most definately considered an exploit by the programming department, which means PD considers it a CRB. At least they should.

This issue has recently be discussed by the GAC, and their decision was that it is not a breach nor an abuse of the system. However, it's not something that is encouraged, either, nor should it be widely advertised.

*coughs as he reads the pretty wide advertising*
