Dark Age of Camelot European Server Compromised

Revz writes "The company in charge of the Dark Age of Camelot servers in Europe finally admitted they have been having security problems, after over a week of unusual happenings for the players of this PC MMORPG. Unknown people have been causing havoc with GM admin tools on live servers and have potentially gained access to account passwords. Sanya (the community relations manager from Mythic, who run the servers in the US) has commented on the whole thing in this thread on the DAoC Catacombs site, saying 'server security has never been compromised... there is an explanation for this that doesn't involve anybody breaking into databases or servers'. Pictures and videos of the situation on the European servers where multiple high level creatures were spawned can be found in this thread on an unofficial forum."

Maybe someone was about to quit.

Maybe an employee of GOA (the company running the european side of DAOC) was disgruntled logged in and used his GM toolset to spawn mobs and cause a bit of a ruckus before they quit.

Seems the most plausible to me, since daoc has been the most stable and secure MMORPG release..(IMO) unlike a certain PVP centric one..
