Well my account got hacked. Good game, had loads of stuff.

My pet is gone, money is gone, storage is completely wiped out. I have nothing left of it.

A year down the drain.

btw this is my second time getting hacked.

First time, you got unlucky, second time its your fault. With the new anti-hacking measures in place, its almost impossible to be brute forced unless your password is 12345. Try reformating your harddrive, as it's probably a keylogger that captured your password.

Sorry for your loss :(

Yea, second time was my fault. Actually the first time was too. I put anything down for the "Security question" so I didn't remember what I put it as.

Now I made a completely new account and know my secret answer.

But they took everything, GDF, SOS, my lvl 32 Blue +3 bow.

meh im super pissed.

EDIT:

I didn't open anything in my email so, I don't know about the keylog.

3 tries every 10 minutes.
6x3=18 tries an hour.
24x18=432 tries a day.
considering the first few hundred thousand tries would be. A. AB. Ab. Abc.

It would take weeks if not years to bruteforce someone.

Thats only if you have a huge password list. Basically like 1gig.

not years, more like months, but once again, bruteforce programs are out there... so yeah, someone could just run it on a spare computers.

BUT, yes this will be VERY rare, hackings mostly are b/c u got keylogger or a friend found out about ur weak @$ pw

Well, just to put it in perspective.
36 factorial (26alpha and 10 numeric char) is 3.71993327 × 10^41.

So yeah...years XD

36!/24! (random) if its found.... yeah so months

Oh yeah...forgot you cant have 36 chars in your pass, then again you can also reuse chars. Anyway. Lets leave it at...a very long time XD

Thats only if you have a huge password list. Basically like 1gig.

The server doesn't respond to requests more than 3 times in 10 mins so even with a short dictionary list with no mutations, it would take forever. Plus nobody should have a dictionary password! Anyway, there's no way to get the encrypted version of the pass anymore to actually decrypt it by brute forcing at like 15 mil passwords a second on your comp like you really do when you brute force something. And yeah any passes that are more than about 14 characters (cuz passwords aren't case sensitive in SRO but they can contain numbers I think) would take over a year to brute force anyway.

Don't know if sro allows it, but try adding characters like these in your pw: þ █ ▄ ¶ § ○ x Þ ¾ ■ ­­± µ and so on... That's what i do, no one will hack that :D.

Ps i've never been hacked before :)

I know one guy on my server, he got hacked and rebooted his computer thinking it would remove the keylogger. He thought turning his computer off then on would remove the keylogger...pretty sad. His new account was also hacked. You didn't do anything similar to that did you? Or did you just give your pw out TWO times? O_o
