Or just stop using the internet like a total derp.
Iv been playing mmo's for 11 years, havnt been hacked once. You can keep your token which is just a cash grab, aimed at the less tech savy.
Hell the word "hacked" isn't even used correctly 99% of the time. Someone got your password =/= hacked.

since when was offering something for FREE a type of "cash grab"?

I think he's referring to the physical one you can buy.

How would they sell his gear on the market if it had been used? One you use something it becomes bound to you. Nor would any hacker go through the process of selling his gear to a vender for an extra few gil and leave him with 100k. If he did get hacked, they have got to be the dumbest hackers in history.

Looking at your stats...how did you level 5 of the crafting classes to 50 without having to level mining and botany as well?
Your combat classes are lower level as well.
I'm just starting to get into crafting/gathering myself and wondering how you had all the gil needed to purchase the required mats.
Curious if there's something I'm missing. My impression was that you either had to buy the stuff if it was available, have someone trade it with you or go farm it yourself. Well you obviously couldn't of farmed the higher level stuff, so how did you do it? Would love to know.

i had my char since beta capped at level 20 weaver had about 50k before the launch..from there buy low sale high..was one of the first 50 weaver on server(i think that i am) and i spent hours staring at the market <------this made me millions

You were most likely hacked. Change your password immediately to something unique to FFXIV, and make sure it's complicated. Do not share it with anyone at all. You'll also want to scan your computer for key loggers and make sure your antivirus is up to date. Someone else definitely got into your account. Also check your email to make sure it's not hacked, you may want to change your password there too. It's possible they hacked your email and were able to get into your account that way.
