Hello everyone. This thread is meant to clear a few things up. As you may have noticed most of Roblox has practically been 'shut down' because of this security loophole that makes it easy for people to 'parent' accounts. This has also hit WIJ. The wall may seem a little inactive or unpatrolled due to this exploit which caused some Officers to get their accounts parented. This however should cause no worries at all, things are under control and we will continue at full strength when this is resolved.
I also made this post to clarify a few things that have to do with your interests: WIJ projects and activities. It's important to not freak out about this whole exploit thing, and let the admins handle it, while we try to continue our duties as normal as possible. It should all be over in a few days, in fact it might be over in less than 24 hours.
____
"PROJECT BACK IN BUSINESS? WHERE, WHAT, WHEN, CAN WE GET UPDATES ON IT?"
That is a good summary on the most frequent question I get nowadays. I will gladly answer it for you. Yes, we have been dark on the whole project for quite some time now. This is due to a major change in plans through development, which I will explain at another point in time. The only thing I can tell is that it is definately for the better and yes, progress is still being made (in fact more than usual).
The releasedate of Project Back in Business is assumed to be around summer, or in summer. Imagine that I am a normal person just like you, with a normal life and sometimes I don't like to get behind my computer after a hard day of work and script some incredibly deep stuff. So yes, we are definately making progress and in-detail descriptions of the Project (for example; what is actually inside of it?) will come through the months. Summer.
____
"WHAT SHOULD WE DO NOW THAT ACCOUNTS HAVE BEEN PARENTED? IS THE WORLD GOING TO END AT LAST??"
First of all, the last thing you want to do is to freak out. Look at the situation from a logical perspective: It will be resolved very soon and any damage done will be reverted. Roblox owes us that. You will continue your duties on the most normal way possible until this issue is resolved and we will be at full strength again. For now, just stay calm.
___
"WHAT HAPPENED TO BRIGADIER PROMETHERION/VELTEX? DID HE START HATING WIJ AND RAGEQUIT IT ARE WE ALL DOOMED NOW?"
Brigadier Prometherion is someone who I and many more trust to the fullest. He is someone you won't see twice on this world, and he has decided to part ways with WIJ in a respectable way.
__
"WHAT IS UP WITH PEOPLE'S ACCOUNTS GETTING HACKED??"
First of all, it isn't hacking. It can only be called stupid. These exploiters who claim that they can 'hack' your account only try to persuade you to sign up for their site and so reveal your security code (you know, that thing that gives you access to your account, I can't say the word here) to them. It has only happened to a few people in WIJ and there is no need to worry, just stay alert and don't give your account info away. There is nothing to be worried about. Exploiters (that exploit servers) cannot hack accounts, they have to access to that.
__
"WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THE EXPLOITING??"
First of all, exploiting is nothing more than using a game's faults to your advantage. In Roblox this only refers to the actual game, not the site or its database. "Exploiters" can only mess around in game servers and nothing more. Basically they can insert scripts and do all kinds of annoying things. What we can do about them is report them, and then leave them without taking notice of them. Exploiting will once day be solved, and many exploiters simply give up when they realise no one cares. For now that is the only thing we can do and it has always worked. Anti exploit scripts only work to a certain degree: Only a few inserted scripts and tools can be removed.
__
"WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO DO ANOTHER VIDEO ON YOUR CHANNEL??"
When I get a good idea for a video I will try to make another one. It's just that creating a video takes a lot of time, looking for ideas but also looking through a lot of sources where I get my stuff from (ie. background music/voices). __
"WHEN WILL YOU WRITE MORE FICTION ON THE STORY OF WIJ???"
I'm actually getting quite a few ideas here and there so if I have time I will try to write it down! These things come unannounced and take time.
__
"WHY ARE YOU MAKING OTHER GAMES BESIDES WIJ ONES (ie Alpha Zombies)"
I happen to make a few games while I'm bored or just feel like doing it. See these projects as a hobby. They're not much and they will not disturb work to Project BiB or any WIJ subjects in any way.

"I HAVE A QUESTION!"
Feel free to post below, I will try to answer your question.

Once again, I'm getting blamed by WIJ's inner core.

baskets,
1) never mentioned you 2) you were the one to say that you were the one to parent WIJ's accounts when you clearly didn't 3) try to prevent yourself from going into another stupid argument before I spec ops you, which I, remarkably, haven't done yet. 4) get out

It's funny how the people who posted "Second" and "Third" were actually third and fourth.
@Baskets; You went "Ahh, sweet revenge" which is quite simply enough to make WIJians think you did it. If you didn't do it, then you shouldn't brag about it.
Anyway; my question - When will Officers be allowed to kick ROBLOXians from our Forts? And, like, well, when will Cobalt be updated with 3.0 or 4.0, for that matter? |

____ ANOTHER ADDICTION:
"WHEN WILL THERE BE MORE HIGH RANKS IN WIJ? WE ARE LOSING COLONELS!"
Yes, there will be new picks very soon and new Sergeants are being tested for Officer as we speak.
__
"WILL YOU EVER EVALUATE THE CURRENT WIJ HIGH RANKS?"
Yes, there will be an Officer and STA trainer evaluation soon which will demote all the inactive ones and make room for new ones. Active Officers and STA trainers should not worry about this at all.

Did I seriously just write "addiction".
I meant "addition". Should be obvious.

@glorybox
You will not be evaluated for such a small period of time. We look through your whole career and *then* look at your current status. Of course everyone is being affected by this exploit thing, so don't worry about that.
