Hacked account?

[Zigma]

The problem with this situation is that the person knew her info and was a long time friend. Does the fact that the person had her info nullify all chances of getting her items back?

sadly, you're correct.

[½pint]

For as much of the lolpup shit that goes around (mine is 75 w/capped merits so I get plenty of it) any of the people on here laughing would be just as pissed if any of their 75s was hit like this. Gear is one thing, time spent xp grinding lost because some 400 lb reject who hasn't seen the sun in 2 years went emo like this is just pathetic.

Don't know this person, but stuff like this shouldnt happen to anyone (unless they really deserved it / rmt).

Of course people would be this pissed, and for that reason, they don't give out their account information, especially to lolemo internet relationship losers.

[Ddong]

Thats why you don't give your password out to other people. How many times does this have to happen to people before they realize this? Are you guys mentally retarded? lol

[Sixtail]

Yup. I got jacked a few weeks ago by two people I thought were my friends. One had my password. I'm lucky though, they just stole everything that could be sold, didn't drop my armor or delevel me or fuck with my merits. All I need is a really good KS99 run and one Tiamat who wants to drop H.Garters and i'm good again. Still got all my relic armor.

DON'T TRUST PEOPLE YOU CAN NOT REACH OUT AND KILL. The only person who should ever had your password is someone who lives with you, that way you can deliver swift and painful payback and if you don't want to end up going to jail and dealing with a judge, not even then.

This is a fucked up loophole because i've seen a bunch of crafters with this Policy where if they HQ cursed items they will give the NQ verison for free and keep the HQ to sell and now all that person has to do is call a GM saying they got jewed out of an item.

[Scorp]

Its very common where there is limited supply of NQ's on the AH or the person has ingredients (V claw from ksnm30 etc). Some people can't afford a HQ tip or fee so the agreement is sell and split HQ (or crafter keeps) and the person requesting the synth gets an NQ.

id like to know how they actually do that though. Get a piece of gear back like that? Do they roll back characters, retreive data, transfer to different parties or the same. Or can they "create" the data and straight give it to them.

I have lost my pictures [reformated PC] but its floating around the internet. I have a real life friend whom was a former GM, There is an area called "GC Home" its just a big wide open area it looks like a checker board, there are a whole bunch of NPCs there ranging from "Fame" to "Item" you talk to the NPC(s) and you can select any item, job, level, fame, etc. So yes, they recreate the item.

Ohh, that sounds nifty, I want pics of that room.

Its kinda wierd they use an NPC to do it though, rather than commands.

I wonder if taj could get to that room...

[Lordwafik]

Did you hear that sound?

I think septimus just came.

Galka and adventuring fellow!

[Demosthenes11]

believed that he and the client had an understanding that if he HQ'ed he keeps it and replaces it with another synth no charge to the client.

Sounds like the crafter was just trying to keep the HQ. What kind of a dumbshit client would let the crafter keep a fucking rare HQ body piece and just take an NQ?

One that understands how hard/long it took to level the craft? IMO, unless you are going for HQ, this should always be the policy

Sounds exactly like the debug rooms in FF 7/8/9 which you could reach with a gameshark. Characters standing around with different purposes, such as watch FMVs, select levels, zones, items, etc. >.>

afk, taping a gameshark to my ps2 and screwin hot chicks.

A clothcrafter on our server had this policy, ended up making a Cursed Dalmatica-1. Exactally the same situation, where the client didn't know about the policy and the crafter never explained it. He proceeded to get the materials and make a NQ for the client and took the -1 and after shouting to sell the -1 for I think 500mil (while getting harrassed in tells by the client's friend) for about an hour, he took the -1 and got it uncursed.

GMs didn't do anything about it then, so it sounds like another situational thing that the GM just makes up their own decision without any firm rules.

My answer to this very simple.

Don't do ANY synth for anyone without an agreement in advance.

The logged person in question is a friend of mine, and he didn't have one with the person who commisioned the togi. Thus, he got fooked. (And Daveys, didn't the commisioner have to return the NQ Togi after getting the -1 one?)

And yes, that means he got a cursed togi -1 for no charge save materials.

The GM did check the chat logs, and that's why the whole thing occured. Crafter took materials, did synth with no agreement beforehand other than "Yes, I'll do it" (cause the guy asking was poor after buying materials), refused to give item back despite it being clear that he'd synthed him a -1 from the materials given. So yes, the GM got called and saw the -1 being dropped in midconversation, proceeded to suspend the crafter for 3 days and handed the -1 togi over to the person who provided the materials.

Treat every possible high-end synth like it will be, even if it's a friggin skillup synth, and you'll go far as a crafter. Get an agreement in advance if your work can produce something worth a gazillion Gil. Or else you get burned. That's what the GM did. Checked the logs, saw an item made with no agreement other than "Yes, I'll do it" and that was it.

[Demetrick]

lol @ trusting anyone to do anything for you or giving anyone anything you might find of value

[the_joker69]

I love how when someone gave another person their account and got fucked for it, they always "got hacked."

Sorry but you didn't get hacked, you gave your info out, the second you do that you're saying hey if you ever want to destroy everything I have, feel free.

It sucks, and I hate to be mean, but I'm sick of constantly "OMG I GOT HACKED I GAVE MY ACCOUNT INFO OUT!!!"

im with you but ppl dont learn from another idiots mistakes.......

[GRT]

wow, didn't GM used to ignore scams? lower jeuno casinos come into mind

[Sixtail]

When too many people start doing it and 80% of GM calls become "OMG HE FUCKED ME OVER", they sort of had to do something about it. Chatlogged proof tends to help.

[Tordall]

I'ld bet that for the GM to actually do something the person complaining has to know them. I sincerely hope that the GM that restored the deleted cursed togi-1 got fired.

Restoring items for people is VERY dangerous for SE to do.

Every time I read about a GM jailing/suspending a crafter I'm substantially less likely to craft for anyone else.
