www.armorgame.com thats the link i accidentally typed in when comming here. I was about to log in when i realized i forgot the s. I started looking around and it was a exact copy of Armorgames, every thing was the same and working, games, forum posts. Shouldn't legal action be taken?

Hehe don't worry man. Though the link is slightly different it's still armorgames. It reconnects you to the armorgames server so it's not strange everything's the same. It's the same site and it's still the original site.

You should watch for links like armogames.com (forget the r in armor). Those lead to other gaming sites trying to lure away people from armorgames. It's legal though as far as I know.

Don't log into it. For some reason, it says you're logged out there, when you are still logged in on the real AG website.

I've been wondering what is Armor Bot for a long time now. Just realized what it is.

Hey devil, guess what? Healmeal is right. I typed www.armorgame.com and went it was the exact copycat....But one glitch. I added something to the URL:

/user/TheAssasinator

guess what happened? I came to my profile and everything was the same except this:

You must be logged in to post a comment! I think it really is AG but am totally confused about the extra 's' now :P

I have loged-in armorgame.com and it was all normal, it is not copy, how could it be all same (posts too) if it isn't real armorgames (I am writing this comment from armorgame.com)

Even though it's safe or whatever, just don't log into any site which resembles AG but doesn't have the EXACT URL address.

I've heard that these sites are PHISHING sites.

Yeah knight i agree, Chrome warned me about the website but i still went. Instead of it being a http, it was different. Https was what it was

Guys, guys, don't worry! I just tested it and the way it seems to me:

Colony works (Including the servers). If this were a phising site, it would be an extreme job for a simple-site as AG. Most phisher's target bank sites, eBay, Amazon, retil and sites using credit card info. AG is none of those.

If I remember right, the old site had this URL... Seems the site domain is still being used by AG.

Don't log into it. For some reason, it says you're logged out there, when you are still logged in on the real AG website.


Most likely because when it tries to access AG cookies (Which are only allowed to armorgames.com) it does not get them (because it's not the same site).
Even though it's safe or whatever, just don't log into any site which resembles AG but doesn't have the EXACT URL address.


A general rule you should yes, follow on the internet when dealing with sites you do not know. This is a case that seems to be safe (It is not a phishing or hacking attempt), but be always be careful!

I think this URL is also owned by the owners of AG, and it simply takes you to the same site, instead of simply redirecting you. To my knowledge a copied site could not update with information coming from the original, could be wrong, but its most likely the case that they set up the site to where if you accidentally type the wrong URL, it will give the website anyways. There are some websites set up to redirect you to their site if you misspell AG's URL, but I don't think this is one of those cases.

Yea there's a couple AG websites like that:
http://armorgames.us/
http://www.armorgames.tv/
http://m.armorgames.com/#home
http://armor-games.us/
:/ a lot of people like to use the same links, just tweaked a little bit, just to get more views on their site.

Oops! :P here, I'll try using hyperlinks.
If you notice, one Armor Games url has armorgames.us, and the other has armor-games.us
see? there's a - in one of the links.

armorgames.us

armorgames.tv

m.armorgames.com

armor-games.us
