Two things:

1) In the past, previous GM's have restored stolen items on Red 99. Policy on that changed around the time I joined the staff as a Guide in August of 2013. It is not our responsibility to track down and return items lost due to players' own error. The chances of your account legitimately being hacked are extremely slim (<1%). The chances that you shared your info with someone, who then shared your info with someone, who then shared your info with two someones, until eventually it got to someone who stole everything is much more likely (>99%). I'm fairly certain that your login history showed definitively that you had shared your info in the past, so this is likely what happened.

One of the main issues here is that if your items have already been disseminated into the economy, we aren't going to then take those items off someone who legitimately purchased them with platinum. We also are not going to "dupe" the items by creating them once they've been sold. And again, even if the items have not been sold, it creates an inordinate amount of work for me (and I already have a long list of things to do every day) for a mistake that shouldn't have happened in the first place.

We have always restored deleted characters on both red and blue. That is an entirely different, and much more simple process.

2) That being said, while we may not return stolen items, we usually do ban the person who took them. This isn't always the case, as it's often extremely difficult to discern what happened in a given situation. I'm not going to give specifics, but this entire process can absolutely be used maliciously, and has in fact been used for this purpose in the past. That is why we are extremely careful in these situations and recommend not sharing your account information.

Also, we generally do reveal where the items went. I had thought I'd given you the players name in your petition thread. If that is not the case, re-petition, label it for me, and I will give you the name of the player who took your stuff when I have some time.

As a final thought, I truly am sorry to anyone who gets their stuff stolen. It's a shitty thing to do to someone, and even shittier to have it happen to you. But it's not something we're going to change policy on. If you don't want your stuff stolen, don't share your info! You may also want to avoid passwords like "12345" and "password". For ultimate protection, use an alpha-numeric password that includes capital letters and special characters in a random order. If that's too hard to remember, use a string of words in place of a single word (IE: "bobbarkerpunchedmyballs" is better than "testicles" or even "testiclepunch".

Good luck and please don't share your info if you continue to play here!

how the fuck did you get my password??

Wow, thats weird. You restored HB's stolen stuff in 2014.

[Synthlol]

Why the hell would you share your account info? Learn your lesson and move on.

Karsten is coherent, he must have just woke up and not hit the bottle. (yet)

Makes sense TBH, problem is Nothxu has like an AON/Tstaff/major items that will basically make him quit if you just look at it logically and tell him to beat it.

Least let the man know who fucked him over, or try to and say you can't find out.

This happens very rarely for notable people who play here.

I understand you don't want to dupe items, as that would be bad for the economy. I fully understand you don't want to punish those who obtained the item fairly.

Finally, account sharing is a shitty idea on this server.

On the other hand, I don't see why you can't hand the stripped dude some gear from the banned one.

Would improve customer satisfaction a lot.

what a crock of crap. i didn't get to find out where most of my stuff went. The items you did tell me about where sitting on the toons that had taken them and you wouldn't return them either. I think this new policy is just a cop out because you would have had to punish lite/powered and it would have an impact on Azrael. I think you need to put an addendum in that post that states that results may vary based upon how we perceive the petitioner/ how well the perpetrator of the crime can weave a bull shit story about how justified they are in stealing the items.
