  1. In defense of TKR's penis, BK declares a penetration war on HoF. Let the sword fighting begin.
  2. BK is launching a peacekeeping operation after unprovoked attacks against us by the zionists, United Ummah. The shocking revelations come after their leader, ababxah, failed fifth grade reading comprehension and attacked BK after a separatist group, Ayyslamic Caliphate, launched an assault on UU. Those in the ranks of UU continually persecute those of the true faith, Ayyslam. UU is a threat to our national security; aligning with those that seek to destroy our way of living. Therefore, BK recognizes the independence of the separatist region, Ayyslamic Caliphate, and supports them in their quest against the heretics in UU.
  3. I can't be bothered to read the whole thread but I'll give my opinion on it. BK Net was launched in early 2015, before the API was even a thing. It managed city grants, loans, entrance grants, and an member to alliance market. It has since been expanded to do... pretty much everything. We had a recruitment bot years before anyone else even thought of it. In BK, all of our tech is proprietary and built in-house by myself and a few other talented developers. We have a development group (which is underutilized) and encourage our members to learn programming to continue to build tools. We make an attempt to foster skill growth within our programming community. However, we do not automate certain things. We do not give automated recommended builds or automated recommended war paths (we have sims though). I personally feel like relying on a bot too much does not allow your individual members to be competent on their own. But that is the choice your alliance has to make. That being said, the barrier to entry to create automation tools is extremely low. Back in 2015, it was next to impossible to create tools that do what they do today because there was no API. With the improvements to v1 API, the limited scope of v2 API, and especially with v3 API, it is super easy to watch a few videos on YouTube and build yourself a bot and learn a valuable skill in real life. Shit, I basically learned web programming due to BK Net. Additionally, as mentioned above, there are plenty of open source or free-to-use bots and tools out there. You don't even have to learn how to code. Pull Loctutus in your sever and have at it. Personally, I don't like using foreign bots but that's a decision your alliance has to make. Bottom line, banning bots is stupid. I think the rules surrounding automation is sufficient. Additionally, the barrier to entry to pull bots into your sever or consume the API is pretty low and will only get easier as they improve the v3 API. The skill gap has changed. Adapt or lose.
  4. BK Declares that we Declared War on Blackwater or something like that /s/ Militarized Autists
  5. At the onset of this war, our goal has been to deal with the threat to ourselves, not to exact a vengeful price on those on the periphery. The Syndicate have demonstrated that they are not a threat to our spheres, and thus our coalition has agreed on peace terms with The Syndicate. The peace terms are as follows. 1. The Syndicate agrees to return to their peacetime standard of military readiness, agreed to as 0/2/5/0. 2. The Syndicate agrees to not launch wars against members of Coalition A (including all members of Hollywood and OO Sphere), and agrees to refrain from providing aid to any member of Blackwater. 3. No new wars will be declared between the two sides, but all existing wars are allowed to run their course.

  6. BK wekongnizes Hostilities of Recognition extremely wHoRe
  7. Honestly wouldn't have known you guys declared war on us if it wasn't for this DoW lmao
  8. Shitty bloc makes shitty decision. Who's surprised? lmao Hella simp for daddy Rose
  9. Y'all take this game way too seriously lmao
  10. Well, we did it PW. We figured out how many bad alliances you can fit into a bloc.
  11. BK declares a recognition of recognition of hostilities with TCM. Who doesn't love a little incest on a Thursday night?
  12. Wow, fabricating fake CB's to justify a heinous act of attacking our allies at TLE. I know you guys can go low, but this is too low.
  13. BK activates their paperless MDP with TLE and declares war on The Coal Mines. CB: Not enough targets Edit: TLE can I get access to your coalition server so we can better coordinate?

  15. We are in contact with our lawyers in regards to copyright infringement.
  16. Damn man, you okay? You seem to have taken the meme to heart. Do you need someone to talk to?
  17. Well I'm just glad that my baby from 2015 is getting attention and I can make my first shitpost in years. What better way to spend a Friday night than looking at logs. To be clear, I don't really give a shit about this game and you all know I have no love or super hatred towards BK so hopefully this post is fairly conclusive. I still run BK's forums and BKNet was 90% created by myself. The entire banking aspect as created by myself but I have not maintained the application since early 2017. Tiber and George have maintained and added to the application since. I can say with fairly certain confidence that George did in fact abuse BKNet to remove members from BK and had the help of an accomplice. Of course the database password for BKNet is stored in an environment file and George had access to that password. The password was not changed after George left BK. There are only three people that I am aware of that have had access to and that is myself, Tiber, and George. This is how George obtained the database password. BKNet does have the ability to remove members from the alliance. Through an Internal Affairs module that managed the upgrade training of the applicants, George and his accomplice removed members from the alliance. George used phpMyAdmin (which, why the hell did I not remove that program?) to delete the logs that track these kinds of things. It is clear that while George's accomplice removed the members from the alliance, George cleaned up the logs in the database. Fortunately, Apache keeps logs of every request and yes, I really did look through them. You can clearly see the GET and POST requests to the specific endpoints in the Internal Affairs module of BKNet by his accomplice to remove the members and the specific endpoints of phpMyAdmin utilized by George to modify the database. Why do I know this is George? Well, this is why I said "fairly certain confidence." The IP address involved in this attack matches the same location of all the IP address that George used to login to the BK forums. Additionally, the only way for someone to have access to the BKNet database is to have had access to the environment file, which out of myself, Tiber, and George, the only one with a motive here is George. As for his accomplice, all I know is he is from France and uses the OnePlus A6013. So while I can't say for certain that George conducted this "attack," I would say it is fairly clear that he was involved. Additionally, everything that BKNet does requires some sort of user input to initiate the action. If this was a script that went "rogue," then the script would've been initiated with an internal IP and it is clear that it was not. BKNet was not compromised; it did exactly what it was told. This was a failure of basic security and BK has learned the lesson the hard way.
  18. Came out of my hole to say... It'll never be as good as Shifty's stuff. Anyways, have fun or not I really don't care.
