' Wrote:Well I figured out the right combo of new passwords and old usernames and got my old account back, my rogue was stripped naked so it is taking me awhile to get gear for him, but thats pretty fun, plus no one seems to go to abyss so I take my mage in there and farm worms for gems and have gotten lucky with getting rogue gear trading them in. And I am getting pretty good with my mage while I am farming for my rogue so thats a plus.
Oh, change your password then. KO got hit HARD by a hacker. The rumor is that someone had a copy of the old KO database and cracked the passwords and were sitting on it for quite some time, then when they were ready, they logged in all the accounts they had and used bots to sell/trade valuables on accounts.
For instance, my clan leader and other clan members lost a lot of stuff such as gold and armor and anything else that's easily sold.
But after so many people reported that they were hacked, k2 finally stepped up and instituted the new password policy and made everyone change passwords. They aren't admitting that someone had an old copy of the database though.
Luckily I had a new account and different password from whatever copy they had. Otherwise they would've had a field day with my account.
