Global-RS 2015 Attributed Dataset
The dataset attributed to Global-RS in 2015 is unverified. No operator notice, independent report, a public breach source entry, or independent verification supports the January 2015, 10,231-record, RuneScape or phpBB3 attribution, and IP, email, username, password, or hash-metadata claims.
Exposed Data Types
4- Alleged IP addresses

About This Record
January 1 is only an unexplained month marker.
It is unknown whether 10,231 means raw rows, accounts, unique emails, or usernames. MD5(phpBB3) is ambiguous; phpBB3 storage is not equivalent to bare MD5, and exact representation, salt or work factor, nulls, and prevalence require verification. A hash is not plaintext or a directly usable password.
The record cannot support a definitive inference regarding identity, account ownership, or credential compromise on the defunct forum.
Until the source is authenticated, the record must remain retired, sensitive, and private. If a password is later authenticated, only reuse elsewhere should trigger replacement. Gaming-community associations must not be publicly disclosed.
Verification and editorial method
LeakData compares the incident name, date, affected-record count, and exposed data types with accessible sources. Unverified fields are not presented as facts, and records are updated when new evidence becomes available.
