Hacked!!
Posted 05-14-2008 at 12:25 AM by Turkson
AAAHHHHHHH!!!
I got hacked sometime last week. What a horrible experience. I would only wish it on people I really, really hate. I feel virtually "raped" as a Hacker scumbag sharded most of my gear (375 enchanter FTL) except for my main tank set, which they then used in Auchidoun instances. Guess there's some kind of exploit were they can get to ore nodes and treasure chests.
Thankfully they were caught in a timely manner, and Blizzard's turnaround on restoring my account was incredible and pretty accurate. I think I'm only missing 3 items. The really weird thing is that the hacker bought a Enh Shaman totem with my BoJ's. Still can't wrap my head around that one.
In better news, most of my gear is restored, so I can start raiding with the guild again, we've made great progrss in Hyjal, killing Anetheron and Kaz'rogal in the last week. I'm pushing to go back to SSC and TK to kill Al'ar and make some more attempts on Vashj. Also in discussion were Sunwell trash runs, which I'm not too enthusiastic about. I think my big hangup is that there is nothing for me. I'm not driven by loot, but I'm not sure if I want to pay huge repair bills for healing items that I would be almost last in line for. Greedy of me, and less that stellar, but that's how it is. I'll have to sleep on it and think some more.
Still boycotting WoWInsider until someone tells me that they're reputable.
And if anyone can give me a link to a large version of my avatar pic, I'd appreciate it greatly. I fail the Interwebz and my Google-Fu is weak.

Also, regarding those missing items, if you send an email to the specialist GM that restored your stuff saying what you are still missing they can probably restore those items. |
