War Z Server Files & Source Code Discussion
Let's "audit" the situation here.

• What happened to War Z?

servers and forums (including their databases) were compromised by multiple people it seems.
Details on how (Quoted from theDomo on this forum; cache backup of the post):
More (retarded) information on that here:

What is the "War Z Server files" thread? Who is "Sirgay"?
Originally, a retarded user named "Sirgay" created this thread: http://forum.ragezone.com/f111/warz-serverfiles-29-03-2013-a-920346/ to most likely just cause drama and infect people. He claimed infecting the War Z servers, as well as having up-to-date server files (but no sourcecode). He could barely speak english fluently, and in the end the files were completely fake (and included viruses)

What was really in Sirgay's files?
Upon release of the so-called "files" he had, there was 3 seperate .rars to download as well as a database file. The final rar was called "WarZMarch30.rar" and here is a picture of the contents:

This looks to me like the data extracted from War Z including the client files with other random crap included.

There was a bunch of files with "Super Mario Bros" as the title and a "Studio.exe" virus which copied a java.exe to your localdata folder with a text script and disabled your task manager. Retards.

The database he uploaded was a "Kal Online" database which had nothing to do with War Z and was last modified in 2008.

What's Happening Now?
This thread was made to inform everyone on what's going on here.

I was infected! How can I remove it?

"Regards.

# Update 1

The official servers were compromised. I have been given user databases and additional material to confirm this (unnamed sourced). Whilst the source code does exist and numerous people have it. Now, it's only a matter of time before they make their way here. It maybe a few days or weeks but they will be here, it all comes down to who wants to release it first. First person to release will get subscriptions here and e-glory.
