I've had my UO account for 68 months now, been deactived a few times, etc, and while I almost never play the game anymore except during some maints and periods of heavy nostalgia, I did log in about 3 months ago and noticed that some of my things were missing.
I had a house, fully stocked etc, but I noticed that my "Hood of Shadows" or w/e it was called was missing, and that the last 2 vet. reward choices I had stored up for a long time had been used on rewards and were nowhere to be found on the account. I sent a question through the EA help system, and I got this response back;
I NEVER PICKED THE LLAMA.Thank you for contacting Ultima Online in-game support. I show that you have selected 7 rewards so far (the 3 first year rewards, the 1 second year reward, 1 third year rewards, 1 fourth year reward, and 1 fifth year reward). The last two (a pair of ethereal llama statue) were selected on November 14th of this year, by the character Ender on Atlantic. You should be receiving your next reward in roughly 4 months.
So basically, my UO account got hacked, someone jacked the rewards you earn for having an account active for a long period of set time, but left my house and just about everything else on the account untouched.
Heres my question, is it wrong that I'm steaming mad that I was somewhat hacked and still care about a game thats over 8 years old that I played mostly in middle/high school?
Most people won't get the topic, but I feel violated and must speak out.
