3. I suppose you will have to buy that armor back. GL completing a set, whatever it was.
4. Sorry to hear that you were hacked, but you kinda asked for it yourself without GC. I'm feeling more sorry for armor owner actually. And you, not having GC, shouldn't borrow any items. Now only thing you can do is writing support case to MA (don't think they will do anything about this though), changing your e-mail and password on EU web site, getting GC on the first login, buying back stuff you allowed to be stolen.
i guess it could be my fault cuz i didnt have a GC i will talk with thee armor
owner and see allt hat i can do to repay her the armor like i said was burrowed for a series of months on a pay and save the armor was boar
im missing voer 60k skills including 36xx first aid skills tons of combat and mining

I'm not sure if I understand you clearly. I'm not telling you to hack your ava, but change password and e-mail you use for EU.
1. Set up special e-mail box, used only for Entropia, nothing else. Do not give this e-mail to anyone, do not forward any other mail to it, do not give it as secondary e-mail during registration of any e-mail addresses. You can also make sure this address contains small letters and capitals, number and so on.
2. Set up new password, containing at least 8 various signs (small and bigg letters, numbers).

I'm not a hacker myself, so can't tell you how your account was hacked. But I've heard about phishing attacks on accounts. If you gave your e-mail to anyone, maybe some e-mail was send to you and you clicked link encouraging you to reactivation of your Entropia account? This is popular method to steal login and password as I've heard. Still, if you have good e-mail address, used for EU only, strong password AND Gold Card, you will be probably a bit safer. And with Gold Card you will be able to demand some actions from MA in the future. Never heard about GC account being hacked so far. It doesn't mean that it's impossible, but I suppose MA would be more willing to help you if you could inform community that GC is a crap and doesn't secure your account as they say it does.

Xuxa...

When the game tells you that your Avatar is logged in.. That's not a server issue lol.

You should have tried logging in, literally as soon as you could open the game up again.

Because when you try to sign in while a person is on your account, they become disconnected. Which would then enable you to log on while that person is disconnected.


( I really think MA need's to enable passwords people can set on their storage containers. That way if someone does catch another person hacking their account. They can log in and safely store their items in their storage.)

Are you sure about this? I have never heard of this happening this way, but then again, I don't have problems like this. It just sounds strange to me.

First of all, no I havent seen "you" online, and that is as much of help I can give you.

Second: Your account was worth a fair bit it seems, and you don't need me to tell you that you where stupid not to have a goldcard.

Third: Why is it that every f#%¤# account that is hacked has borrowed some armour/high end item? Not saying that you are hiding something, but I see a tendencies to theese things. Not much postings, resently borrowed items (or in your case for a long while) and suddently get hacked? What is it? Do you guys borrow items and publically announce it or what? Sorry dude, for the best of me I cannot belive this is the full story. If I am wrong, feel free to negrep me or whatever but it is the same old story over and over again.

I bought my goldcard as soon as my disciple period was over and I decidede to stay here. Sorry if I come down hard on you but this is like a lot of other post claiming to be hacked.
