View Full Version : A noob in town threatened to hack my account over gear:(

I was in town last night. A young level, Oxie, wanted my black helm (which is worthless!). I was friendly & explained that it was the only one I had. I explained he had to be level 35 to wear it anyway. I was NICE.
His friend pm'd me and said something to the effect of "Give my friend what he wants now or I will hack your account."
I freaked out. In hindsight, I was an idiot. I should have gotten a screenshot. I don't even remember the guy's name. I said to Oxie that his friend threatened me & that was not cool. Then, I exited the town.
I know the person who threatened me can't be reprimanded since I don't even know who it was. I also know, in calm retrospect, that the person was most likely making an idle threat. My hubby's job is programmer- threatening to hack anyone is serious. What's happened that some new players feel like they can threaten anyone like that if they have something they want?
Sigh. I know I should just shrug it off, but I'm still freaked out a little:(

There is nothing to worry about any threats, you are safe.
Want a hug?:)

Lol but I'm not a newbie- can I still have a hug? :)
I'm sorry I wasn't clear. I'm not worried at all about my account being hacked. I just felt uncomfortable that someone would say that- it's not something to say to someone you don't know. Hacking is too serious. And threatening players over gear is horrible.
Lol can we put a sign on the back of characters like that saying "Kick me. I'm a bully"?? :)

2 facts
The world is full of bullies.
Bullies also play games.

I don't think the fact that bullies exist means they get to bully.
Fighting back & stopping the bullies is the better approach.
Thanks for the hug:) Hugs are grand:)
I know you can read lol. I didn't think about my signature- sorry:(

This acually isn't a bad idea. This could be used for minor "bullying offenses" that people can't really get a ban for. Just a little something to let other people know that "hey, this guy can have a bad attitude at times". I wouldn't mind seeing that being implented in-game. Of course, it wouldn't be permanent, just for a few days or so.
