The password system is proprietary and has nothing to do with the layout of a bic file. It saves your Public CD Key, I assume as a variable on your character somewhere. But that is by no means the full CD key, nor would it have been something a person could retrieve by "looking it up on character vault" on any server.
K, first of all, this isn't an argument to fight, so I am not sure why you're being so agressive here. Secondly, I do know for a fact that a cd key is retreivable, but it's fine if it isn't, as I am pretty sure you would have to have access to the server machine to do it. I know this, I've hosted three servers and built two. I am not arguing with you on this. I know this. So there's no reason to debate something like this on a dead thread. Lastly, I don't even need my cd-keys to play. that's not why I asked for them. i can play POTM just fine - as you can all see, I have been - using my old keys, or a new set, or whatever. What i needed my keys for was something else, and i will get them when i recover my HDD. If not, i will take the next step into recovery of them. So chill. And I could do without being lectured about how things work, thanks. I know this truth, and it's cool if you want to express your opinion, but the last several posts have been very unnecessary (save for Blue's, that was very informative and made some good steps towards resolving this matter for me.)
Can this thread be locked before someone else starts an argument over something so silly?
