I was just looking at my server and found 4 connections that looked really strange. The users all showed as init. never established a game connection? I checked the IP addresses and found all 4 come from China. Any ideas what they are doing??? Addresses are 220.248.163.127 180.141.58.82 113.138.147.241 171.104.239.88 |

probably just pissy little hackers trying to get in or someone trying to spam your server. |

Most likely trying to steal the game and resell it at a discount. |

They probably think they are hacking firewall, and never heard of TradeWars. |

So probably no harm can be done by them hitting the game server??? |
