[edit] November 2007
Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Silkroad Online. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add your original reference to the article. Contact me if you need assistance adding references. Thank you.

Hi Neil can you please visit this website http://www.rev6.com/ they have reference to the hack events and http://www.silkroadonline.net/sro_board/bhboard/bh_category.asp and visit the bug section and also the general discussion http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=69019 also lots of discussions of what have happened.
- These are not reliable sources as defined by policy:
In general, the most reliable sources are peer-reviewed journals and books published in university presses; university-level textbooks; magazines, journals, and books published by respected publishing houses; and mainstream newspapers. As a rule of thumb, the greater the degree of scrutiny involved in checking facts, analyzing legal issues, and scrutinizing the evidence and arguments of a particular work, the more reliable it is.
. However feel free to add a couple of sentences respecting WP:NPOV. Remember, we are an encyclopedia, not a forum. Thanks. --NeilN talk ♦ contribs 21:25, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
Neil, I believe a Wikipedia is there to record history and events so people remember and not forget. I am posting it so people are aware of what is going on for the sake of new users and existing users. Why I think my post is reliable is because I am one of those victims. There are thousands of people who are complaining about this and believe me when I say it is the truth. Please let me know if I can post that article thanks.
- I'm not disagreeing that it's the truth. But Wikipedia is not a soapbox. I've added some links above to policies, etc. Basically, any text you add should be written in a neutral, encyclopedic manner. --NeilN talk ♦ contribs 21:38, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
I will try my best to reform the article and add some reference to the site thanks.
Hi Neil, I have reposted and I have reference the article to a post on the official forums with over 130 replies
[edit] Insecurity of accounts
Recently , there has been an exploit on Joymax website where user accounts got hijacked thanks to insecurity of code on the site. It was so easy to do that over 1000 people got hacked on matter of hours.Joymax did not want to change anything although they were contacted and warned about the issue.After one certain site got the steps published for everyone to see , Joymax only managed to shutdown the service , but too late.They blame the users for the glitch on their site , although it is obvious that it had nothing to do with user side.Joymax also declared that they will not recover stolen accounts , and further more , they neglect that anything ever happened.
