Hey Tenno.

We are aware of this issue and are currently investigating. In the meantime, if you receive this invite, do not accept and please submit your ee.log to support over at https://support.warframe.com

[–]NameWasTaken8 Styanax 233 points234 points  (7 children)

This dude has more issues than Ballas

[–]AetherMaxxer 30 points31 points  (3 children)

Imagine if they were more hated by the community than Ballas

[–]Dear-Emphasis1670 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think people already hate this guy/guys more than Ballas, lol, because of how IQueless they is/are to directly hack the almost single free good big game of this time to "tell about the vulnerability", instead of like every normal person just send a ticket to DE.

[–]BalticHorndog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Or if DE make a mini quest out of this. But instead of whoever hacked the game, make it Nef Anyo.

[–]JokesOnYouManus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They will be because Ballas isn't threatening to mess up their entire gameplay experience

[–]Altair01010fell into his own creation 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i think that's impossible tbh

[–]Cyan14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This dude has more balls than ballas

[–]inika41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This guy is immune to the Narmer mask because he fully believes in Ballas, no mind control needed. TMITW wouldn’t even shake his hand.

[–]LoreVentFriendship wih Valkyr ended, Voruna is now my mommy 88 points89 points  (4 children)

This is one hell of a copypasta

[–]LoreVentFriendship wih Valkyr ended, Voruna is now my mommy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Holy shit I didn't know it's an actual copypasta

[–]OvipositionDayHI TENNO 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Why did I think this was a modified Kira pasta

[–]Agrieus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly thought it was a randomly generated ChatGPT story.

[–]break__veilI NEED. TO GO. FASTER! 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Has been happening to multiple accounts, looks like someone got access to a D.E. server side of things, screenshot and send to support ASAP

[–]Tamotefu 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Didn't realize Ballas was based on an actual person...

[–]Kitkatbane 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Someone in chat said the game got hacked. Maybe set your Invite option to friend only for a while.

[–]AzaxSama-Harrow enthusiast 95 points96 points  (9 children)

Hacks the game then proceeds to tell everyone he’s a loser WHAT was the plan here

[–]PlanktonInitial7945 71 points72 points  (5 children)

I can admit that the message is funny, but it's still crazy to go to such lengths just to propagate a funny copypasta.

Then again, I hope the only thing this person has done is propagate a funny copypasta...

[–]Dingghis_Khaan You startled the witch! 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Let's hope this is just the Warframe equivalent of the cough virus in Gmod where this was a deliberate attempt to bring a security flaw to DE's attention.

[–]NorysStorys 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Considering the joke goes on and on about security, it’s definitely riffing off of that. Likely alluding to something DE has licensed being the vulnerability

[–]luckynumberstefan 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Bro you and I must have a different sense of humour if you think that’s funny

[–]PlanktonInitial7945 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I guess we do, yeah.

[–]Time-Weekend-8611 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just a copypasta.

[–]Corat_McRedCan't have enough Forma 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Fairly certain most of the stuff in these messages are just copypastas done for shits and giggles.

[–]HenReX_2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

that's a copypasta

[–]Haunting_Brilliant45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To let everyone know that he’s a loser I guess.

[–]PixelBoomBLESS THIS 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Do not touch anything or press any of the buttons on screen. Immediately close the game and put in a ticket with DE Support and include this screenshot, what you were doing and where you were when the message appeared, your ee.log file (in %LocalAppData%\Warframe if you're on Windows), and the platform you are playing on. As there have been a lot of posts about this, it looks like someone has gotten unauthorized access to DE's servers.

[–]jettivonaviska 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Looks like someone got access to the popup chat for starting missions that lock you into completing them.

[–]ghost-eats-dirt[🍰] 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Is the game still safe to play? Or is this a big ol' security risk/data breach?

[–]Eraevn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perfectly fine, they disabled the invite system til the next update for safety sake, so these shouldnt be popping anymore.

[–]Dat_guy696Sevagoth go brrrr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Red text guy went mad cause his wife left him.

[–]Rikikrul's ↑ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Someone gave the intern access to the server.

[–]Dear_Duty_1893 19 points20 points  (7 children)

the people in the comments thinking this guy is actually serious is hilarious 😭

[–]I-Love-Facehuggers -3 points-2 points  (6 children)

Its still pathetic.

[–]Negative_Neo 1 point2 points  (4 children)

How is it pathetic?

The person hacked something and using it to send a silly pasta, you can call them many thing, but defo not pathetic.

[–]Conscious-Refuse8211[🍰] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I'm gonna ruin lots of people's day and stress the devs out to send unfunny copypastas

Yeah that's about as pathetic as it gets

[–]ChatteringBoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They probably could have done something far more malicious, but decided to do this instead, and you are all still throwing a fit because you can't trade easily for a few days

[–]Negative_Neo -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Redditors surely love acting dramatic and high and mighty

<image>

[–]OK_Stop_Already 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure it is.

[–]Dear_Duty_1893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh yea for sure

[–]Apophis_Rising_ 31 points32 points  (17 children)

The amount of people in this comment section that don't realize the message itself (regardless of hacking) is a shitpost is worrying lol

[–]Willing-Shape-7643LR5 willing to help 11 points12 points  (15 children)

Who cares if its copypasta whoever hacked DE is still a loser.

[–]AbyssalOtter 1 point2 points  (14 children)

Unlikely. Likely very smart and likely making alot of money if they have the skills for it.

[–]Ashamed_Low7214 9 points10 points  (8 children)

You can be smart and still be a loser

[–]AbyssalOtter -2 points-1 points  (7 children)

Didnt say otherewise. But assuming "loser" is weird you know nothing about the hacker and anyone with the skills to hack choosing to hack a big game dev is etheir a successful hacker. Or a teenager. Loser is not the kinda insult that fits.

[–]Ashamed_Low7214 5 points6 points  (4 children)

You implied it. By saying "loser doesn't fit because he's likely smart and highly skilled", you implied that loser cannot be used as an insult for this person. He no doubt is smart and skilled. But that doesn't mean we can't call him a loser for doing this

[–]AbyssalOtter -1 points0 points  (3 children)

I just dont think loser is the right insult. Like calling an apple an orange

[–]Ashamed_Low7214 0 points1 point  (2 children)

If we based insulting people only by the names that are technically correct in their usage, effectively half the insults we use today would see their usage DRASTICALLY reduced

[–]AbyssalOtter -1 points0 points  (1 child)

I dont see an issue.

[–]Ashamed_Low7214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, the point is, an insult does not have to conform to the dictionary definition of the word in order to be used

[–]Willing-Shape-7643LR5 willing to help 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I'm so sorry I called them a loser because it's frowned upon when I call them a tiny dick motherfucker seeking attention.

[–]AbyssalOtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly a better insult. Soft words incorrectly used are less meaningful.

[–]vemailangah 4 points5 points  (1 child)

No one mature or with any kind of life/financial safety spends their time doing shit like this. It's a loser. Losers have nothing to lose.

[–]AbyssalOtter -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Criminals, or bored kids or adults with a hobby of cracking systems....none of these are "losers". Wrong right etc.. not the point.

You know how much money someone who can crack code and get into systems is worth. Its not a common skill set. White hat, black hat. Lots of money of to be made. Not who i would call a loser. Morally bankrupt or not.

[–]Willing-Shape-7643LR5 willing to help 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I don't care if they are god and have all the money in the world. There is no justification for hacking or cheating and anyone that does so is a loser who needs to get a life and anyone who thinks it's ok is as bad as the person doing it.

[–]MephistoTheDark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh grow up, it's not like this guy is doing actual serious harm by being funny with the invites lmao

[–]AbyssalOtter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean aslong they dont actively fuck anyone over its just a exposing a security flaw. Though thats not likely the case.

[–]forestman11Certified Nechramech Lover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fr like how can you not tell this is a copypasta.

[–]Zer0siks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fuck

[–]Willing-Shape-7643LR5 willing to help 8 points9 points  (1 child)

Oh yeah another amazing game gets trolled by loser ass hackers. I hope DE finds them, bans them for eternity and presses charges against them.

[–]Negative_Neo -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Well, thank God you didnt overreact.

[–]Guapscotch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly valid

[–]YetiliBooben is Life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so strange. What the hell. 😅

[–]Oberonkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great now we need a frame thats just a shitposter

[–]Maskers_TheodoliteWisp Enjoyer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Someone actively being pathetic. Ignore all of that and don't accept anything.

[–]EvillNooBTeam Trinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Missed Try finger but hole opportunity

[–]jules711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that is a hilarious copypasta, kinda concerning hack though lol

[–]Tlayoualo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone should just log out while DE performs maintenance to kick out Mr. Funny guy.

[–]shtoopidd 5 points6 points  (12 children)

Why is this kinda scary. Well, im scared.

[–]AmazonianOnodrimpistol-loving surfer mermaid enjoyer 9 points10 points  (11 children)

I had the same thought, and I think I've landed on the idea that it's because it's a "creepy dude" copypasta already that would be a little unnerving if you got it in a DM on socials or something, and then whoever it was who did this chat hack or... whatever clearly had the opportunity to do more nefarious shit than just anonymously post a weird copypasta in a way that's... well, admittedly novel and funny, but also a little scary that somebody would have this kind of free time and use it to do... this, sending random people, and as a woman who is into free software, if I got this out of nowhere? I'd feel personally targeted and very, very unsafe.

          So you read "I would be worried about this potential capability of a hacker" and you thought I was... underestimating the capabilities of hackers.

          Log off, stop being an asshole to random women on the internet.

          [–]The_Redneck44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

          That’s fucking disturbing

          [–]SnowyAnastasiya 1 point2 points  (1 child)

          Huh. DE can get hacked? Maybe we should consider ourselves fortunate sending shitposts is all they decided to do with it.....

          [–]Fun_Friens 3 points4 points  (0 children)

          Potentially it might be all they can do.

          [–]cryonicninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

          From the looks of it I'm pretty sure the guy that did this, was doing it to bring attention to the security flaw,

          [–]ZenZennia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

          Why do I feel like we are waving towards the biggest April's fool joke here? This can't be a legit person, can it? They went on all that trouble and the best msg they could write is THIS???

          [–]Captain_KuhlCaptainSammich//PC 2 points3 points  (4 children)

          All things considered, this dude is hilarious, and probably the best person to figure out whatever vulnerability was there. Just weird shit, nothing actually malicious or game-breaking.

          [–]Zaranu 1 point2 points  (1 child)

          Well DE said never click the accept option. There is something malicious about it if the developers dont want people clicking the accept button.

          [–]Captain_KuhlCaptainSammich//PC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

          Sure, because they don't know the extent of what it could do, because this still needs to be investigated. Nobody's actually been affected by this, as far as I've seen. 

          [–]Conscious-Refuse8211[🍰] -1 points0 points  (1 child)

          All things considered, this dude is pathetic, and could have just communicated with the devs instead of ruining lots of people's experiences and stressing the devs out massively so they could send unfunny copypastas

          [–]Captain_KuhlCaptainSammich//PC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

          What did he actually ruin? I've yet to see a single negative impact besides a couple text prompts. Everyone in this sub sounds so ridiculously sensitive, like this guy is supposed to be the antichrist or something. 

          [–]dubesto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          Interesting use of free will

          [–]captdiablo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          Well at least the messages are funny copypastas for the most part. What a bizarre situation this is tho.

          [–]itsmecatoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          What happens when you press accept??

          [–]AntarcticScaleWorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          This has copypasta potential, unless it already is one

          [–]Thraxmonger -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

          10/10, no notes, best hack ever

          [–]Bac0n0clastPrimary Merciless deserved better :( 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          I was laughing reading the image at first, thinking this was just shitposting of that copypasta... Then saw someone from DE replied about this being a serious issue... Now I'm scared 🥲🥲🥲

          [–]Reichbane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          Me, a woman in STEM: cannot stop laughing. Honestly W pasta.

          EDIT: ?? the response is so confusing, the hacker could've been a malicious actor, but instead chose to reveal a security flaw in a relatively funny way. Hackers wear different hats and we're lucky this one chose to be relatively benevolent.

          [–]Xordramon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          On a lighter note, this mook is insecure as all hell. Look at how many times he mentions proprietary software and security issues. Decline him so he can, and I quote, "stay a virgin forever".

          [–]NoAnalysis9028 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

          Lol he’s an actual loser. How dare he do that to warframe. Thank god I didn’t see this yet phew

          [–]Scrubasaurus13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

          Those who don’t learn from Christory are doomed to repeat it.

          Seems to be PlayStation only. Hopefully I’m not getting hacked on PC as I types.

            Some of the messages contain slurs, I don’t think this is an employee, and if it is, they should be removed.

            People are not real bro

            [–]vemailangah -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

            Of course losers like this have the time to hack and destroy other people's day. Hope he dies a virgin.
