I know there is a warning to not post about leaking passwords that possibly is not under control of the administration to post the passwords on other sites. I agree that there is no control after the password is released officially by BRM, but are posting password 2 hours before being posted officially and in this case I believe the administration would rather see what's happening and avoid this problem.

You cant do nothing about this. I know it is annoying for the ones playing the leader boards, but for the moment, the game is as it is. Sometimes they get the password sooner some times they dont better ask the ones that got it sooner how they did find it. When you get the answer report it here

the problem is that when I'll try to register today, there were no more seats available. so I started to look for the reason and found sites that advertised the password before brm own. I do not think it should be, because it harms us, we are officially registered and seek to act honestly. dishonest are taking advantage. you all will start also complain when try to register after the brm disclose the password and realize that no more seats avaliable. it is unacceptable that criminals sites get the password before their official release.

They get it by finding out themselves. If the pass is reused then its really no big deal to try out two dozen from the previous tournies. If one is fits then boom, they know already the pass. BRM don't distribute paswords to other sites, sorry.

It really is frustrating when the password is leaked out and you are unable to register due to the sheer volume. I dont think that anything can be done about this and it is just one of those things that we have to put up with

folks,
Excuse me insist.
maybe for my English not good, I am not able to pass the information correctly.
the password is leaking before the site brm disclose it.
this can only happen if:
1. someone from within the brm is disclosing to someone 2. passwords are being reused. 3. Passwords are weak and brute force program is managing to solve them in time.
for any of these cases can be solved by brm. create passwords with more characters. do not reuse passwords check for audit if you are going to place out password (it is easy for network snifers)
contrary to what was suggested some comments above, this is not good for us or for the site brm, because people are not accessing the site to see the password, is not generating page views, they are not seeing the ads and consequently they are not hiring the services disclosed by the website.
Of course, this situation is very unpleasant ... too bad when you are trying to register in a freeroll seats have no ... and if recently it was possible to get a password here and make the registration, but now if you have not found the password before you can forget about it freeroll

unfortunately that's what I'm realizing that will have to happen. I will have to miss the brm site and only look for the password in other sources that already have them before brm and be able to register me in time.
unless the administration of brm solve this problem.

... < ....What's even MORE disturbing than that is the fact that the 4 players with the same 888 Avatar all seem to register together at the very same time EVERY day 6 or 8 hours before the tourney begins or the pass is posted here...,...as you can see in the pic below...!
... < ...I telephoned 888 and brought it to their attention that it seems odd that the SAME 4 folks register all together EVERY day...!
... < ...It smells of a cheater with multiple accounts to me,....just like a few years ago when I used to report multiple account cheaters to PokerStars...

Normally it was not allowed to show the Password for a freeroll But sometimes it was not easy to Register, because a lot of Player want to Play in this Kind of freerolls. But 15 minutes time to Register wasn´t enough sometimes...

we talked to for this a few weeks ago, the problem is that passwords are repeated, someone has all the passwords so far, he know the order of passwords, or is it something else There are many tournaments with this problem this is not the case only for this tournament

what a horrible thing this password leaking stuff really is, those dudes who are responsible for such misbehave should be torched, they should be skinned and then torched or maybe even torched and then skinned, so ... yeah think for a second before releasing the passwords dudes...

what makes me saddest is. someone is knowing the password before it has been officially released So It is any employee brm It is any employee 888 It is a security failure of servers that store the password.
whatever the reason among the three above, the solution is easy, but it seems they do not want to solve.

From the information available, it would appear that the issue clearly lies with the issue of the reuse of passwords. It's not staff of BRM or 888 giving it away or disclosing it, it's someone who has cottoned on to the fact that passwords are reused and tries each day to register using one of a limited number of reused passwords to see which one allows them to register! There you have it!

If the passwords are repeated its not that hard to gain an early entrance. All you need to do is to keep track of them and then trying it one by one. I dont see the purpose on this though, unless you cant sign up, when the regular registration opens. If they synch the time opening, with the one here in BRM, then this wont be a problem.

Lol Pochui I couldn't have said it better... These guys deserve death for such a crime!

Nobody would be that much anxious 4 not getting them in time to actually brute force something just to gain early entrance, brute forcing really not works that way anyway and the sites would notice by the tens of thousands different wrong entries. However could not believe this makes you sad. Thats just like ridiculous.
