Problems with phishers?

Anyone have problems with phishing bots? Or private profiles adding you, even though you just block/ignore anyways? I've developed a fix for this.

https://github.com/dragonbanshee/node-s ... te-profile

Basically follow the install instructions. If anyone adds you and their profile is private/not created, it will automatically ignore it so you don't need to deal with them.

If you need help with anything concerning it, feel free to add me on steam.

Isn't it a better idea to ignore lvl 0 players instead of private profiles? I have no experience in trading but some higher traders have their profile private against phishers right?

High tier traders who have their profile private deserve to be blocked. If you are not going to let people check your profile and inventory, you may as well just stop trading.

This so much.
Also, making your profile private doesn't even help against phishers, they'll add you regardless.

Well yeah of course they add you, that's what it's supposed to do. They'll add you, and it'll immediately be ignored I their profile
Is private.

Soon I'll add it so level 0s are also blocked.
