    square gonna make me cry

    Have to do a rollback because my account was hacked. The only thing missing from my account was gil. For some odd reason the hacker left me with 53k. So I have to wait 7-10 days for square to roll back my account which means any progress I make on my character from now to then will just get rolled back.... Most modern MMOs allow you to continue playing without being affected by a rollback. Why does square have to be so archaic in everything they do. Kinda sad when square has upset me more then the hacker did.

    As sad as it is, it's sadder people still get hacked now-a-days than it is the process to restore. Usually being hacked ends up being your down fault.

    There is a digital version of the one-time password for both phone OS's btw.

    Now answer this:

    What did you do in order to get hacked? I can tell you they didn't sit there and brute force your account because I highly doubt your SE account name is Kakashi Hatake. Even though people will never admit they buy/sell gil or visited the site, they're not just hacking people out of the blue and it would help if people state what they've done lately so we can see if there's some kind of exploit going on, even if it's on a legit FF website.

    Seeing as you are a legacy player. Did you know that your Gil from before 1.0 was cut by 90% when converted to 2.0 right?


    I'm not confused, I just was genuinely trying to be helpful. Some people didn't know that their money was going to be cut for 2.0

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    Yeah, good chance it came from one of those sites, a lot of RMT make fake guide sites to trap people :\

    http://www.disciplesoftheland.com/ is one of the better DoL sites (and clean.)

    o.O You're mad at Square for taking time from fixing everyone's issues (server login) to fix your specific issue, and that the process will take 7 days. It boggles the mind. Get a good anti-virus program, take security measures to protect your account. If you've done all that, I would be thankful that SE is working to help you and your account rather than just perma-banning it like they've done to others as noted in their recent posting.

    Everyone thought paid retainers and fantasia would be the end of it.
    You were warned.
    Cash shop in, TrystWildkey out.
