Just want to say... I can't wipe the smile off my face from being right about cheat engine users (I was so tempted, but never gave into the temptation and instead decided to support Nutaku. Looks like that paid off).
Despite several pleas of my pleas on this forum and elsewhere, the use of third party programs to manipulate game data was simply getting out of hand. An investigation revealed several hundred people (including many users from this forum) indulging in this behavior.
Today, the Aigis dev team wiped the accounts of everyone who manipulated game data through Cheat Engine. Stolen crystals were removed. Paid crystals were refunded. In the future, they'll just skip straight to deleting the accounts.
I've posted here in the past about this subject because it's more important than many seem to realize: we're a new site, and our success or failure depends a great deal on people playing it straight with us. Hacking, scamming, etc... has a real effect on the business and will preclude us from bringing more games to you. The Japanese dev teams were frankly shocked at the level of manipulation going on - for whatever reason, they don't have this problem in Japan.
So that's it. For those of you who haven't had your data effected, our thanks. For those of you who had a reset, I hope you'll continue playing with us regardless of your access to illicit premium currency - many of you are good users and bad security is sometimes too great a temptation. Hopefully that temptation is now removed.
That'll be live before the end of the month.I'll actually consider donating a few bucks to Nutaku too (as soon as Paypal is alive)![]()
It depends on the game. Currently, it's easier for us to catch people after they've cheated than to prevent them from doing it at all. I agree that your suggestion is the preferred solution.Will the nutaku team look for a way to prevent third party programs from even accessing any of your pages?

Also note... No one claiming innocence after Nutaku came forward lol.
mercy of RNG
Demoness Aigis has no mercy to show you.

She only did that to torture others.
