Verify names with BL_ID's, using the master server

[Hammereditor5]

Zapk made a program which lists users who played on his servers. 0xBrianSmith's Blockland identification project made sure that when users posted to the database, their report was not fake, by requesting the master server if the provided name belonged to the provided BL_ID.

I want to make a program which determines if a name and BL_ID match each other. How do you ask the master server?

You POST authQuery.php with the content of ip=x.x.x.x&name=ign

When sent by a client, you should use the IP of the connection rather than a variable through the url or something. Not sure how you'd securely do it through clients on a server though.

To master2.blockland.us, right?

auth.blockland.us/authQuery.php

No matter what I try, I get "ERROR no NAME query".

You're sending a post request to that url with NAME=something&IP=something? Make sure it is capitalized.

It has to be via POST
It has to be in the data field not part of the page name.

That is exactly what I am doing.
It now works, after I followed Zeblote's suggestion to capitalize the parameter names!

Hammer might as well be an alt of kalph. He also wasted time making pointless peripheral things for blockland to get a pat on the back from the community. And also never plays blpckland.

Yeah but both Kalphiter and Hammer both played Blockland, and Kalphiter's tools were actually cool.

On average I play Blockland for 90 minutes a day; much more time than I spend on the forums.
Why do you have to turn this into a flame topic?

This is going to be interesting.

If any more drama goes on, I will lock this topic. Because arguing about stuff is not my intention.

I was just asserting my conception...?? Is that unethical?
