My 2v2 partner was not only hacked yesterday, but also deleted. This s**t is really getting to be a nuisance.
Some of you may recall that my wife’s account was hacked last year. What made matters worse was the fact that she was guild banker at the time. You can imagine what happened to our guild vault… It wasn’t pretty.
She ended up getting back about 80-85% of her stuff, along with most of the items in the guild bank, but she never fully recovered from that in my opinion. For better or worse, she stopped playing not long after that happened. It was a huge inconvenience at the time, not to mention the feeling one gets from being violated in that manner. Almost like having your house robbed. Not quite that bad, but you get the idea.
She started using an authenticator on her iPhone, but the reliability of that system seemed questionable at the time. I watched as it would often not accept the login credentials, thus causing her to swear at her screen and say, “f**k this!”.
I went ahead and changed my password last night, because that’s something I try to do every several months, just as an added precaution. Thing is though… I’m wondering if maybe I shouldn’t go the authenticator route. I can’t tell you how unbelievably pissed I’d be, were I ever to get hacked.
How many of you use authenticators? Any issues with them?
A Core Hound Pup sure would be cool. They’re still giving those out, right..?
