This is the text of the inccident. Posts: 143 Re: penguin27 hacked Reply #26 on: July 17, 2007, 01:56:03 PM -------------------------- I don't know. It's not funny. NCSOFT called me a thief. They said I was banned for "Account Theft" I don't know hows account it is supposed to be but only our clan had hacks going on and I was trying all day to help find the solution. I got banned and for what?? I don't know. this is a direct shot at my personal integretaty. I don't think it is funny and NCSOFT won't respond. Report to moderator 70.118.232.215 Penguin27 Oxblood Offline Posts: 39 Re: penguin27 hacked Reply #27 on: July 17, 2007, 03:35:40 PM ------------------------- rummy ask kysannia what happened...sorry rummy but some rude and malicious things were done with my account and after i reported someone hacked my account they did a log and found you were using my gear...i am still quite confused myself...i know for a fact you would not steal or be a thief...i will do my best to clear your name with ncsoft..you have my word on that....other than that you have been caught in a horrible plot against me Report to moderator Logged Kysannia Global Moderator Offline Posts: 67 Re: penguin27 hacked Reply #28 on: July 17, 2007, 03:54:36 PM ------------------------ I explained the situation to Penguin as far as what had happened to his items and account. I also emailed NC Soft a nice long email last night. I am doing everything I can to make sure they take the ban away from you rummy. Basically what happend is I had Pens items on an alt because the clan warehouse was full. Pen called up NC Soft and threw up the big red flag saying he was hacked and someone stole everything. According to NC Soft here is the deffinition of being "Hacked" ---NCsoft considers "hacking" to be the criminal act of creating and distributing malicious software onto your machine without your consent, usually via a keylogger or Trojan. It is important to understand that NCsoft does NOT recognize a "hacked" account to be the theft of items resulting from account sharing, trading, or selling. The integrity, security and interactions of characters on an account are the sole responsibility of the account owner, and not NCsoft's.--- So from there (as I explained to Penguin last night) I was holding his equipment until I had a chance to tell him what was going on. When you "touched" the Drac bow to use for the olympics you were banned later for account theft.... because you had touched an item that came from a "Hacked" account. As stated above the account was not "Hacked" so NC soft has basically Banned your account without cause. I believe what they did was through out a big fish net on any and every toon that had contact with penguin or anyone that had contact with anyone that had contact with penguin (trading etc) and suspended them all until they could figure out what is going on. unfortunatly NC Softs customer service is absolute s**t and they could care less if they have f**ked up or not. Ive explained that the account was not "hacked" per their rules/codes etc and asked them to reinstate you rummy as all you did was use a clan weapon for the Oly, that you gave back!! A few things can happen here 1. Penguin can Email NC soft about his ticket, tell them what happened as far as account sharing and they may lift all of the ban's enabling Rummy to come back, and Ishmila and Penguins Items to be retrieved. 2. Penguin can choose to remain silent, let NC Continue down their path of burning people at the stake that didnt do anything wrong, in hopes that they believe him and return all his items and reinstate his Exp. 3. Penguin can lie about everything and say that his account was hacked/pw and account info was stolen in which case after looking at everyones logs and IP addresses when they logged on to what toon when, it much more likely that NC soft will tell penguin later that after review that his account wasnt hacked, it was account sharing in which case he is liable.... and rummy willl still be banned, and Penguins/Ishmila's equipment will be gone because Penguin knew it was account sharing and submitted a claim of being hacked. (Even though he didnt know it wasnt a hack until after the ticket... but NC soft is a bunch of assholes.. they wont care) 4. OR Nc Soft COULD ..... doubt it ... but COULD after further review, say "your account was not hacked" and reinstate littlerumrunner and lift the suspension of Pen and Ishmila's items. I personally am going with the result of #3 I SAID RESULT... nobody get their panties in a twist and said I called anyone a Liar.. I said result....RESULT of #3. to be continued...................... Report to moderator Logged Penguin27 Oxblood Offline Posts: 39 Re: penguin27 hacked Reply #29 on: July 17, 2007, 05:04:43 PM ------------------------------ ok. all im going to say at this point of the game is rummys name will be cleared as of the others only time will tell at this point...i will keep my word that i have rummys back and also kysannia...when this initially happened i was under the influence my account had been hacked and continued with action therefore after...i did not even close to think someone i knew was capable of doing this to me especially in clan. as for now rummy i will call ncsoft and do my best to clear your name...im sorry you happened to be caught in the crossfire of this action which i dont think is correct on any level...now i hope people think twice before there actions and the reprocussions of the people around them (my actions as well)...i have already decided to leave game but not before having my gear returned or part of it for it is quite easy to kick someone after you have gotten what you need or what....its even harder to be fair even though you think your right on a situation...
