I wuz hacked late last night and my CA and DA. I had to change my password. My friend Karl(dryholla) wuz completely hacked and his ranking dropped from 2000 to 70,000. He knows he wuz hacked because when he logged in all of his stuff wuz gone and when he checked his defence logs, it said no weapons were sabotaged. I checked the same for me and no weapons were sabotaged when i defended

Some KoC players with expert knowledge on Internet and Programming, use their hacking abilities wither to take revenge or to win the game. ^&%#^%$&:angry:#*^&$ :angry: ^%#%:angry:^$^&$^&:angry:%#&$^% cheaters.
The commander of the commander of my commander (LOL:P) was hacked in the begginging of Age2 (his account was reseted) beause he had reached ranekd 40. In the end Age1 Valafar's (the Relentless guy) account had been hacked. You are not the first.

/me asks if your password was something that you could find the the dictionary or something else easy. Not making fun just if you have a bad password your chances of being hacked increase a lot. I'd personally be intrested in knowing the password you previously used. Assuming it's not a risk for you like it being a password that was using for other things. Just to know what kinda of passwords are being hacked so others can avoid this happening to them.

I was wondering the same thing. If your password is an actual word, commonly found in dictionaries, then someone could rig a program to try logging into your account with random words. Eventually, they'd log on.

Being a good example is hard. I’m trying to serve as a horrible warning instead.

How long would that take, though? Depends on the program. More advanced it is, the faster. And hackers are usually the most patient so they could wait for days. and using alphanumeric (numbers and letters) passwords are ususally the best. I was hacked many times in age1, and was fortunate enough only to have money lost

Could be those database errors... I sabbed this one guy for taking one of my little buddies for 200k (I only sabbed 2 skins) and had the logs still to prove it, but for some reason there was no record of his skins being lost (yes he was attacked). He and I corresponded back and forth trying to figure out what exactly happened since he didn't have a record of it, yet i did.

And I think the hackers have other ways of finding your pass, than using a program that tries countless passwords.
