Welp i was gone for a month or so, came back and some how my account was breached, main items i can tell that were stolen were my haubergeon and Amemet Mantle +1 was gone, and this hands with the +str on em. i have given my account to no one, i have been pinging Nas on naschat for a month, yes i know he just got back from vacation a few days ago, i have been persistent but met with silence. I'm at my whits end, i spent so much of my time farming for these item and its just gone, BOOM nothing. My Character's name Is Joshness, i logged into my account on the browser and noticed an Alt i never registered to my account, i had 0 alts before this one appeared, name was Wheraex, i didnt delete the alt encase Nas needed to look at it, changed my password etc. few days later after Nas came back and did the RMT bans the alt was gone too. My friends ask me every day if i heard anything and some even /tell Nas's character in the dunes to maybe get some help, silence. Im desperate guys... shit i would perfer nas just tell me he cant do anything than have no response. Help.... anyone...? this is the 3rd post i made but it seems the "Game Support" area isn't looked at as much. idk :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:



I am really curious about accounts getting hacked. It seems like these "hackers" are good are finding people with good gear. The people also claiming that their accounts were "hacked" always feel the tend to write about the good gear that they had which sets my skepticism into high gear (no pun intended!).

I have a serious question. Was your password a difficult to guess password and did you use this password on other websites? Did you ever lend your account to anyone, even once, perhaps a "good" friend?

I dont want you guys to take this the wrong way but the security flaw is in this website, its so easy to hack its very sad.

A Database of everyones info is literally stored in the directory on this server and anyone with half a brain can see it. I myself have never even been past level 50 on FFXI and have never had more then a couple hundred thousand gil and could care less, but i do know lots have put in thousands of hours here.



If I was a hacker, I would probably target people like Wolf, Chess, Ruzuka, Ulrich?, Eggs, Camping/Camper, Quentzel, TopShelf LS players, etc... This being said, why are the hackers not targeting the big players and going after average players with a few +1 items if there is a security issue?

its appears most of the hacked accounts are inactive players , perhaps so the hacker has enough time to sell the account without it potentially being recovered by nas.

First of all, thanks for listing me first.

Second of all, I have thoughts and none of them are very flattering to those hacked. Also, what sprinkle said is mostly wrong.

No idea why they targetted me then! :cry:

I think my best bit of gear was a few elemental staves (NQ not HQ). Though oddly the items sold on AH are items crafted and were items I certainly wasn't holding on to so it looks as though whoever hijacked my account actually made use of it! While I did have numerous crafts levelled none anywhere near maxed so it was very much basic things crafted that were generally break-even synths (and certainly nothing that would rake in masses of gil).

The gear I had can be replaced, as can the gil too. The character itself cannot which is what I'd really love to get back (though getting back everything would be great too! :D )

I wouldn’t waste your time hacking Exe.

Me neither, the guy can't even afford Dalmatica-1.

I don't know if they are rich. I am just listing the names that I respect the most and seem to have knowledge of the game and are active. I didn't write what I wrote to be a dick or anything, I am just challenging what is going on with "hackers" hacking people that I never even heard of which makes me very skeptical.

I don't give anyone the benefit of the doubt because I think logically. If my password is robust, never shared and it's ONLY used on Nas and no other servers/sites/etc..., then logic dictates that if someone hacked my Nas account then they would be able to hack everyone's account. This is obviously not the case.

It seems that the security issue was back in december/january. According to nas streams, he fixed the issue. However every time someone returns, they find their stuff missing, it was most likely due to the period where a security issue happened, but we don't hear about it until the player returns.

Also everything sprinkle says is wrong. I had my own run-in with the worst bst in the game just last weekend. Dualboxing bsts fighting T's and dying while stealing my party's mobs when we'd been there well over an hour.
