Feel free to request to any game admin for your account to be restored if you feel you have been wronged in any way

Quote
(21:08:12) (@Denny) TheMasterMind1: if you do see this, CookieFactory had his account broken into and taken over earlier today... his armoury has been sold off, etc etc. One of our alliance members managed to get the majority of the gold and spent it on weapons, so maybe you could arrange a transfer of stuff back from B to A?
(21:08:58) (@Denny) TheMasterMind1: it's fury (refreshx) that has the stuff now... he got about 560m gold out of about 600m that was available when the account was sold out.

(21:09:18) • @Denny wanders off to bed
(21:09:25) (@fury) damn incredible stroke of luck that he still happened to be on irc when i found him having that much gold
(21:09:34) (@DuEy) :
(21:10:55) (@Denny) even if the stuff gets moved back, he's still lost 25% of his account from it being sold, plus the bit you didn't get (40m), plus the bit that was stolen off you (30m) while you tried to respend it all
(21:11:08) (@Denny) so it's a hell of a loss whatever happens
(21:11:09) (@Denny) sucks
(21:11:13) (@fury) yeah :/
(21:11:20) • @Denny /really/ wanders off to bed
(21:11:20) (@DuEy) well
(21:11:22)     —› nick: (Denny) is now known as (denny_AFK)
(21:11:25) (@fury) nite denny
(21:11:27) (@DuEy) the new age starts soon :
(21:13:18)     —› join: (Duncan-Idaho) (Duncan@threekgt.resnet.tamu.edu)
(21:13:19)     —› mode: (Remco-) sets (+v Duncan-Idaho)
(21:13:53)     —› part: (Duncan-Idaho) (Duncan@threekgt.resnet.tamu.edu)
(21:14:12) (+NS33) soon...
(21:15:19) (+NS33) wait, what's going on here?
(21:15:40) (+NS33) are you asking for his account to be restored, just like that?
(21:15:55) (@DuEy) ya
(21:16:33) (+NS33) just like that
(21:16:43) (@DuEy) yes
(21:17:06) (+NS33) then maybe you should also ask him to restore all the other dozens of people who got their account hacked too
(21:17:18) (@DuEy) ifthey make the effort
(21:17:23) (@DuEy) to come and talk to him
(21:17:25) (@DuEy) he might do so
(21:17:27) (+NS33) and maybe an explination should be offered for what happened to boogie since we're being so nice here
(21:17:27) (@DuEy) MIGHT
(21:17:32) (+NS33) maybe i might
(21:17:40)     —› nick: (denny_afk_also) is now known as (Denny)
(21:17:42) (@DuEy) and dont tell them to come here either
(21:17:59) (@Denny) NS33: the point being in this case that someone friendly got the money
(21:18:04) (@Denny) so it can be transferred back again
(21:18:11) (@Denny) we're not asking for something from nothing
(21:18:18) (+NS33) does it matter if someone friendly or whatever took it?
(21:18:33) (@Denny) NS33: yes, in this case the person will happily give it back
(21:18:38) (@Denny) generally that's not the case
(21:18:54) (+NS33) >>> only if the administration team makes changes to the game <<<

(21:19:06) (@DuEy) ?
(21:19:08) (@Denny) yeah, he needs to poke the database
(21:19:12) (@Denny) if he's willing
(21:19:16) (@Denny) doesn't hurt to ask
(21:19:19) (+NS33) is this what we can expect whenever a little problem such as this arises
(21:19:33) (@Denny) NS33: you can't expect anything
(21:19:35) (@Denny) you can ask
(21:19:37) (@Denny) and hope
(21:19:38) (+NS33) can i ask right now: hey aman, will you return the millions that got stolen off of me when the server lagged and people stole it
(21:19:46) (@Denny) yeah, ask away
(21:19:48) (+NS33) or hey aman, can you replace the hundred soldiers that got killed?
(21:19:50) (@DuEy) ...
(21:19:55) (@Denny) smeghead
(21:19:57) (+NS33) is this what you are encouraging?

(21:19:58) (@DuEy) pft
(21:20:05) (@DuEy) no
(21:20:22) (@Zan) http://www.realultimatepower.net
(21:20:25) (+NS33) then what?
(21:20:25) (@Zan) DuEy: look at that
(21:20:29) (@Zan) funny as hell
(21:20:44) (+NS33) then please, do explain to me wtf this is: One of our alliance members managed to get the majority of the gold and spent it on weapons, so maybe you could arrange a transfer of stuff back from B to A?
(21:21:05) (@Denny) it's pretty self-fishing-explanatory, you fishing moron
(21:21:11) (@Denny) stop being a twat
(21:21:11) (@DuEy) NS33: his account was hacked
(21:21:20) (+NS33) AND SO WERE OTHER PEOPLE'S
(21:21:30) (@Denny) but in this case, the person who got the gold is willing to give it back
(21:21:34) (@Denny) find another case where you can say that
(21:21:39) (@Denny) and then you can open your big mouth again
(21:21:49) (+NS33) hey aman, since people here are so nice, why dont you help all the other people, like rouen or furt
(21:22:07) (@DuEy) ...
(21:22:12) (@Denny) NS33: are the people who stole their gold logging in to this channel to say "I'd like to give the money back" ?
(21:22:13) (@Denny) no
(21:22:16) (@Denny) so shut up
(21:22:20) (+NS33) do you know?

(21:22:42) (@Denny) NS33: do I know what?
(21:22:57) (+NS33) take your question and ask yourself in retrospect
(21:22:58) (@Denny) I see fury in channel offering to give Cookie's money back
(21:23:10) (@Denny) I don't see any other people making similar offers for other unfortunae players

(21:23:38) (+NS33) i'll tell you what i see: i see a request by two people who happened to be friends asking for a change of database so one may RECOVER from a misfortune
(21:23:46) • @Remco- is away: sleep!
(21:23:47) (+NS33) its nice of fury to offer it back yes
(21:23:59) (+NS33) but i do NOT see as changing the game in ANY WAY to restore it as FAIR
(21:24:03) (+NS33) no, HACKING is not fair
(21:24:16) (+NS33) but it does NOT make it right again for the game to be CHANGED to restore it

(21:24:29)     —› quit: (bah) (48830696@=5PZH09757X.ipt.aol.com) (Connection Closed)
(21:24:46) (@Denny) two lefts make a right
(21:24:51) (+zagroth) Shocked
(21:24:53) (@DuEy) NS33: the problem is a lot of people you have there accounts hacked are using illegal things like autobuyers
(21:24:54) (@Denny) no hang on, that's three

Why do I keep reading insanely long posts like this that I obviously don't want to be reading.  Oh well...I read it.  You make a good point NS.  Hacking is part of the game and something that everyone must see as an option no matter how unfair it is.  If it happens...deal with it, don't bitch about it.
