key.dat is encrypted.

If you use the same key for two different people, you have to be at the same IP and use the same name.

So... someone has my key but not my IP? Is that why I'm getting the message?

Yeah, word on the street is you gave your key to some random guy.

Jookia: If someone haxxes your PC, they can just nab "key.dat" from "C:\Program Files\Blockland\" I think - unless Badspot put some extra security on that one.

I've tried nabbing it from myself to another BL install and it didn't work.

...? Sarcasm? I've kept my key nice and safe.

So are you still having problems?

Its died down to about once a day now. It's still pretty frustrating when I lose my work. It's good that it's improved though I can get a few dms and server hops a day. :cookieMonster:

Hey Jervan im having the same problem it didnt do this before and ive been playing for like 3 months and all of a sudden its doing that. I did give my friend my activation code but it was messing both of us up then i made him get rid of the game and he doesn't have it anymore so he cant be doing it then. But like a week later i saw another Maxwell which is my name on blockland. So when i saw him i said why do you have my activation code he didn't answer and left. And i even called my friend like 3 times and no answer and he wasn't at school. So you and me are having a person using our same activation code probably.

A BUMP??? But since it's bumped, I would like to report that this has been happening to me, but I am using it on a different pc, mine got fried, and I have dial up, if that helps...

sorry for a bump because of a bump, but...bump

Man,it's not 50.000USD,its a 20$-Game o_O...
Just write the key on a piece of paper and put it away.
Or burn it on CD...Well..That was Off-Topic,
sorry for that.

Jervan,this bug is kinda weird.
Ask BadSpot to check the connections with your ID to the Masterserver.
If there are many connections from many IPs,
somebody else has got your key.
Else,it's a bug.

But I understand your frustration,
the first day I got my key,it didn't work :)

[EDIT:]
That's exactly what I'm talkin' about,Wedge ^^
Well, places to put it: iPod, paper, CD, DVD, box, and very big neon sign. (That one isnt the best.)
