    PSA: Account Phishers

    There is a group of people going around and telling players that they are friends with staff members and they've been told to tell people that they've been selected to be recruited for the staff team.
    This is false, we make contact with every potential recruit directly, we do not use third-parties or proxies.

    Staff very rarely give out their kik or personal e-mail address to players, if a player approaches you and informs you that you've been selected and wants you to contact them through e-mail or kik do not listen and report them to a staff member either in-game or here as soon as possible.

    We are unable to do much if you provide evidence of kik scammers, we only have authorisation to act if the phishers are trying to lure you in through Graal Era.

    Thank you.
    Legal threats should go through the support center.

    You can in fact gather ip's by using their Kik details. Sending invisible packets of information from a program targeting their account.

    Yes someone can get your IP address from kik very easily and once they get it they can either DDOS you or find a way to rat you by finding any other IP addresses used in your household.
