Just to be clear, there have been exactly zero FT accounts ever successfully hacked since the game first hit the market. Most likely it's a shared account (either purposely or inadvertently letting somebody know your password) or the password was simply guessed because it's a weak password, or somebody logged in from your device with the password saved, or you're simply mistaken. Still, anything is possible, so I recommend that if no GM responds here after a couple days, then send a private message to one.

I hope it all works out for you. good luck :D

The last pet bees(2) I placed in my house must have flown away, I contacted several GM's regarding this matter, I've yet to receive a response, although that was only 5 months ago, so I'm still optimistic :roll: .

This happens, it is afterall a video game, I 've just never had two pets show up unnnounced and paid for, funny how that works :shock:

The chance that you got hacked is so slim it's basically non existent.

Do you or have you shared your account with another player who may have stolen them? If so, that is likely the reason why you are missing items and pets.

But if that is not the case, then did your account have a weak or easy to guess password? If so then that is the other possible reason behind the mysterious disappearance of your beloved pet, and the circumstances under which a thief has stolen your tools :cry: :shock:

I suggest having a look at MadMikael's thread 'Clarification: what is 'hacking'?' for a more in depth explanation on the definition of 'hacking' and other information. This thread can be found in the Off Topic section.

Just my thoughts :P

OK, this is better. Hacked, I doubt it, cracked ... maybe.

Since you brought your post here from the other thread I will now, for myself, give a benefit of doubt in your favour.

Maybe like another player here. Lost everything, her (character was female so she's a she to me) 6 year old son got hold of her phone, and "here you are, I sold everything and got what you needed" ... OOPS!

Yes you are right. Most of people don't know the difference between hack and crack

MadMikael's thread is AWESOME!

And if anyone doesn't know the difference, may I suggest an old movie: Sneakers (1992)

Can't post a link but wikipedia has a nice write up. I loved it!

Please let us know your character name (if you didn't send a GM a message yet), otherwise we cannot check on what happened
