This article provides descriptions of the times the administrative passwords (called "kingword" and "godword") were revealed to the public, or notable false positives, and the action taken to correct them. The list will be ordered from newest to oldest.

Leaks

Godmode leak

Description - Due to a hasty FTP transfer, the settings file was accidentally placed in the frontend folder which granted everyone access to all server settings. The godword and the now obsolete kingword (read below) were both stored in plaintext. This was the most severe leak.

Action taken - Godword changed and administrative passwords will be hashed from BonziWORLD 7.0.0 and onwards. Entirely new systems of authentication are open to consideration.

HogFear leak

Description - The kingword was leaked due to unknown causes, it's suspected that a moderator did it but it could be due to the above data breach, as the date of the FTP transfer that caused it was unknown.

Action taken - Kingwords were made unique for every moderator. The new unique kingwords are not stored in the server settings file.

"MR JEW" fake leak

Description - False positive caused by a trial-king who also requested the demotion of a different king.

Action taken - MR JEW demoted.

"GOTH" leak

Description - GOTH was likely Moon Man, a BonziWORLD king, under a fake identity to leak the kingword. This has not been fully confirmed.

Action taken - Moon Man demoted (potential re-promotion is possible). Kingword changed.
