BNLS is running so they can log all every single keys, pwords, accounts, ips, proxies they can get their hands on!!!

More on topic:  Just curious, but how much does it cost you guys to run BNLS?

I don't remember if it's hosted on Thing's server or not but if it is, ask Thing if he charges :P

Joe[x86]

Judging by a few posts somewhere (I don't remember) Thing provides it to vL free of charge. I don't think they ever came straight out and said it, but things like "take it easy on the server" and "thank him for his wonderful service" etc made it sound like it was given as a gift. So in that case the cost of BNLS would be free to host, for them, and cheap for thing considering it's only using bandwidth and a few processor cycles (it's optimized to hell and back, from what I understand) on a server he's already paid for.

EDIT -
As far as bandwidth, I'm interested in what it does use. I'd wager a few gigabytes per month. Yoni?

ummmm, they admitted to logging all keys and pwords that use bnls so if u happen to have ur account password changed and key banned u now know who did it.

You're just mad because you got scammed, and you don't know who did it, so you blame Skywing and Yoni.  Don't you know that Israelis can't lie?  It's in their DNA!

Anyway, what purpose would logging IPs and proxies do?  If they can dupe thousands upon thousands of people into sending their CD-Keys and Account passwords to them, do you really think they are stupid?  Did you know that Skywing invented proxies?
Grif: Yeah, and the people in the red states are mad because the people in the blue states are mean to them and want them to pay money for roads and schools instead of cool things like NASCAR and shotguns.  Also, there's something about ketchup in there.

BNLS has been up for nearly 4-5 years at my count.  If the intention of the service was to log CdKeys, account names, and passwords, then why would it still be up today?

And even if they did log passwords, you can get your account back with e-mail registration, so it doesn't really matter.

Uhh, I dunno. I was thinking of taking it down next week or so. Is anyone using it?

I think its a good option to have in a bot, specially if you don't have time, and the clients have updated and not wanting to waste the time you don't have to connect to new hash, bnls option is always there for you. =)

We still got JBLS, so you might as well rewrite it.

Either BNLS had a temporary downtime by coincidence, or whoever currently manages it was just fooling around with you. BNLS connected for me this morning no problem (about 3am).
