Is GoGPM down? Site says its being moved. Wanted to see if anyone else is getting it.

Yep, it's down.

It's down, but it should be back up very soon. There was an IP address change, so I needed to update the DNS. It should be back in less than half an hour from now.

Monkeyboy

First of all.. who authorised you to do this?

Second.. isn't this just rerouting information from one website through another?

Third.. if the second condition applies then I'm certainly not sure you aren't routing other information too.

And finally.... til you get a GOG title by your name, I wouldn't trust you as far as I could throw you.

What a friendly person you are.

Really?

Some random bloke comes on to a web site that we all have a vested financial interest in and say 'come route all your private messages through my computer'.... and no one has the least bit of sense to even be cautious about it?

I'd rather be unfriendly, than just plain dumb.

If you bothered to read the appropriate threads, you would know that Barefoot Monkey did quite a lot of effort to make sure the system was impossible to abuse. Most importantly, however, it's not linked to your actual GOG account in any way, shape or form unless you use the same password there and here (and if you do, you're a stupid person and you are asking for it, anyway, even though I personally trust BM fully); this thread is just to make sure no one registers someone else's username on gogPM.

I honestly don't really see a reason to be cautious, and I'm not exactly a trusting man.

He's saying "you're welcome to use my service rather than the non-existing official one", no one's forcing you to use the service. If you decide to use it, it's still your choice if you wish to use it for sensitive data. The service doesn't record your GOG password anywhere unless you personally decide to use the same password for both places.

I think it's great that he took the initiative and developed such a service, I'm not naïve enough to trust it with passwords I use elsewhere though.

This alone points at a dumbass.

It's the internet. *sigh*


But you are naive enough to trust 'this random bloke' with your communications and an ip pointing at an account you have invested money in.

Fine.. you guys can do what you want...

Just remember this for future... the early adopters of Facebook.. they didn't bother making sure all their bases were covered either, and now they are shouting about privacy issues when they didn't have the brains to do it to begin with.

God.. really.. you'd think at some point people would learn a lesson.
