Seems like a lot of people are far afield of the original issue here. I am not certain that my account was hacked (an imprecise and excessively connotative word, I know), nor am I bitching about being banned. I play quite rarely, my one character having only reached level 23 after a year of existence. All I know is this:
1. No one but me knows my login info
2. I have never personally broken the server's rules
3. My account was banned for RMT
4. Uthgaard produced a log showing quite irrefutably that a character on my account of which I have never heard received 50k from a plat seller
This is just a heads-up for you folks. I am essentially illiterate about web security, and cannot say with any accuracy how/why/if there are "hackers" (sounds too much like the "government" or the "mob" often implicated in JFK's murder, now that I use it again) running around here, but just wanted to recommend that you guys keep an eye out for anything like this.
