Since we are getting lots of open requests (completely in public view) for cardshare servers, these are my views/experiences to hopefully make you guys think more.
1) Firstly lets explain about 'public' servers. If you find one and can join it publically then more than 9 times out of 10 it will be total crap. If its easy to join it will be over-subscribed and not work well, with constant break-ups if you're lucky but probably worse.
2) If you get offered connection somewhere privately then likely you will have to pay. Remember there are lots of people out there that will want to take your money and leave you with a bad taste. You will likely lose your money and end with nothing, so invest at your own risk.
3) When you connect you are giving out your details. You can be traced. Remember what you are doing is something that is illegal. You have now been warned so I hope you are all more cautious.
4) Recap, beware of commercial rip-offs, beware of scammers, beware of law enforcement, AND be aware of - hackers. With knowledge of your ip, knowledge of open ports, maybe even some personal knowledge like passwords, and ......a dude in need that can easily be lead (no offence), you are open to attack.
I just want you to be a bit more sensible. Why not start your own shares with friends or with people you can trust, rather than being an open target.
Take care.
