You'd need database access... And FAF code should be fairly secure, so it'd be unlikely that you'd get that.

I was just saying that all an Admin needs to cheat is Mysql, hahah.

But even the admin account doesn't give access to mysql... now in the old days, when the code was more buggy than it is now, it might have been possible for someone to do something, but I highly doubt that now.

You can have as much time as you like. I personally audited every MySQL database call in the code. There are currently no exploits using SQL injection.

Bugs in FAF? Why the dancing skeleton wouldn't you report them, if you truly do know about them?

I'm assuming everything's a lie until I see it exploited. ;)

Hehe, I certainly wouldn't mind an exploit with full disclosure. :P

I haven't tested them here, and who knows they may already be fixed. I just know volumes of them.

Give them a try here, report them if anything happens, it would be helpful for the admins to fix stuff.

Just document well what you do, and don't mess around with other people's accounts, and I don't think we'd have a problem with it.

Even if you managed to grant yourself admin access, the worst you could do is delete accounts. There would be no way to manipulate the game data and give yourself an advantage. Beatles spent a lot of time going over the possible security holes in the code.
