Yloise Posted October 5, 2013 Share #1 Posted October 5, 2013 I tried to log back in to find my account locked, this morning. I am not going to bother with trying to get my account back since it will expire on the 8th and I haven't subscribed yet. So for now, I will buy a new key and think about what I want to do in this game, because I do not have the heart to remake Bhara after this disaster. I will get back to everyone who wishes to play with me when I decide on a new persona/character and start leveling her up. At least I know how the game plays already, so just taking this as a new start to learn something new! See you in game... (I will change my name/pic once I decided on my new character...after work tonight (Saturday).) Link to comment
Dren Posted October 5, 2013 Share #2 Posted October 5, 2013 Nooo =( Bhara was one of my favorite characters that I met thus far =/ Link to comment
raindrops Posted October 5, 2013 Share #3 Posted October 5, 2013 Oh no! That's terrible. Do you know what's happened with your account/have you talked to customer service at all? It might be worth taking a shot at getting it back rather than dropping money on a new key and having to work on a new character. Link to comment
bamcart4 Posted October 5, 2013 Share #4 Posted October 5, 2013 This is horrible. Sorry to hear Bhara. I'm getting overly paranoid of hacking now but I can't order a token as their website keeps erroring out -.- Good luck with any future characters and feel free to friend me again if you want to RP on them.

raindrops Posted October 5, 2013 Share #5 Posted October 5, 2013 If you have an android/iphone (or are willing to emulate an android on your computer) then there's the software token. There's been some problems with it but you have nothing to worry about as long as you remember to make a note of the emergency password (so you can remove it easily if something does go wrong). If you genuinely can't get a token or use the software one, the best you can do is to use a strong password and never use the same password in multiple places (most accounts that get 'hacked' are people who've used the same password and email combination on a forum they've forgotten about - these forums tend to be forgotten, so they're not up to date security-wise) and to change passwords on a semi-regular basis. Sorry for taking this off-topic, but I think it's important to know. Link to comment
Dravus Posted October 5, 2013 Share #6 Posted October 5, 2013 If you enjoyed role-playing your character then you might as well just remake her or at least try and get your account back. It'll save you a lot of frustration, time and money. Link to comment

It'll save you a lot of frustration, time and money. This. While I can see the angle you're coming from and relate to that frustration, buying the whole game over again is basically paying for two months worth of time and getting one. Meanwhile your compromised account it sitting there with all your stuff. No one likes wrestling with customer support. It's frustrating. It's a head ache. But it's a day of chewing out some poor CS compared to setting $15 on fire and losing your character. Link to comment

Tobias Nightbringer Posted October 5, 2013 Share #9 Posted October 5, 2013 I've not met you, but I agree with what K, Theodric, and Cuideag have said. I would do it solely based on the principal. I would not let some asshole hacker use my account as a gold farming robot. In any case, I hope whatever route you choose will go according to plan for you. Safe travels. Link to comment
YesGood Posted October 5, 2013 Share #10 Posted October 5, 2013 This actually happened to my ex too. I thought he got bored after hitting 50 but it turns out he got hacked and account locked. What a bunch of jerks. Link to comment
Yloise Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share #11 Posted October 6, 2013 Ok got my new account, now need to think of a new character...can lalafel's be evil? Or because the cuteness they always seem chaotic neutral? I really appreciate the folks who are telling me to fight for the account, but really, I had very little invested in Bhara as a character/equipment/Gil. It is hard to reroll (new character idea) to begin again, and now that I have had time to cool off from the incident this morning, this is the way I want to go, but I plan to get in touch with my current friends and make new ones with a new concept. I appreciate the well wishes and I hope to see you all again in my new persona...should be in the next few hours before I settle on a character and write her new bio up. Link to comment

Maybe I need to reread the census again? Link to comment
Yloise Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share #14 Posted October 6, 2013 Gah, character restrictions, ill try again at 1am CST to make a new char. at least i have one saved to get my foot back in the Balmung door again. Link to comment
sugarfrosted Posted October 6, 2013 Share #15 Posted October 6, 2013 Met only one, eh? Anyways, sorry to hear about everything but it's cool you came to terms with it in your own way. As for the lil'fellas, some may have been evil but got too lazy to antagonize anymore on a solo basis (too many bruises and empty bellies). Link to comment
Lost River Posted October 6, 2013 Share #16 Posted October 6, 2013 *flops about merrily* I look forward to playing with you! Link to comment
Yloise Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share #17 Posted October 6, 2013 ((This is ex-Bhara)) A newly minted Yloise Dolet, a Elezen Puglist has joined the game! I am accepting all friend invites at this time but not FC yet, and I welcome any LS invites. Still working on her wiki page/background atm, so don't expect much yet. Link to comment
Yloise Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share #18 Posted October 7, 2013 Anyone who wants to rejoin my friends list, please send a invite in game. Thanks. Link to comment
Lost River Posted October 7, 2013 Share #19 Posted October 7, 2013 I'll be your friend! Lost River, Lucinne Jandalaine (My Duskwight!), Odella Blackthorne, and Senah Fashonti! Pick one, pick them all! Link to comment
Oroban Posted October 7, 2013 Share #20 Posted October 7, 2013 Hurray, more derishus Duskwights~ Link to comment
Dat Oni Posted October 7, 2013 Share #21 Posted October 7, 2013 Feel free to toss me an invite. Edgar Gandervalt's the name, and I am at your service. :moogle: Link to comment
DAISHI Posted October 8, 2013 Share #22 Posted October 8, 2013 Bhara is dead? Who Killed her? Link to comment
Lost River Posted October 9, 2013 Share #23 Posted October 9, 2013 Horrible hackers, that's who. >.< I keep trying to add but I can't find you online in time. x.x Link to comment
Dat Oni Posted October 9, 2013 Share #24 Posted October 9, 2013 Bhara is dead? Who Killed her? Terrible people. Link to comment
Yloise Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share #25 Posted October 9, 2013 As much as I appreciate the Simpsons response...I don't think the mystery will ever be solvable. Since my new char is breaking all ties with Bhara. Don't try to dwell on it. Instead, look me up! Link to comment
