They stripped my characters, sold my gold, got me banned and tried to do a race swap!. Ok blizzard are fabulous and fixed everything for me quite happily, i'm still quite unnerved that someone had the cheek to access my account like this. First world problem and I know IABU to play games at my age Grin

Sheldon?

blueballoon79 · 03/09/2013 16:20

Happened to me too! I was left standing naked in the middle of Stormwind with no gold. Oh the shame!

They left my mount and all the tat in my bags though!

Happened to my neopets account and I never got it back :(

What happens when someone touches your Druid ???

Bad things PWG bad things.

CSIJanner · 03/09/2013 16:24

Sheldor would agree with you. He called the police in and was lucky to get Glenn, his battle ostrich back.

Yes, it's a first world problem. But in all seriousness though, some people might just be a game, but it's time and money invested in the MMOG. Did you get everything back?

CSIJanner · 03/09/2013 16:25

Was the hackers name Zarnecki?

YABU to play Wow.

PariahHairy · 03/09/2013 16:30

I'd be devastated Shock

mrscog · 03/09/2013 16:31

Oh no! Can I point out there is a MN Guild though? :)

PariahHairy · 03/09/2013 16:31

Although wouldn't mind if they levelled a few chars while they were there Grin.

FurryDogMother · 03/09/2013 16:31

Happened to me a couple of years back - Blizzard wanted me to send them copies of my passport and something else I forget now. I declined, and moved to Lord of the Rings Online instead. Much nicer!

prettywhiteguitar · 03/09/2013 16:37

Bloody hell, Kick off !!

If you do do a Penny on them, does that mean MN road trip Grin

Not really at the moment phantom but hopefully one day it will have another burst of life! It was so fun :)

McNewPants2013 · 03/09/2013 21:43

I would be devastated if it happened to my eve online account.
i'm an 08 player so 5 years into the making.

Glad it is sorted for you, even thought wow is highly mocked in my corp.
