So, I got hosed by China

Postby Allen! » 31 Oct 2009, 12:10

Yeah, turns out that the damned Chinese grabbed ahold of my email and my WoW account, and fucked me over rightous style.

I have since lost:
6 characters
9000 gold
All of my friends lists
My email which connects directly to...
My entire MSN list(ie, all my friends)
My XboxLive account(which I can ACCESS on my 360, but I can't change the MSN account it's connected to)
A whole lot of precious time

Fuck me, but I'm pissed. How do I know it's the Chinese? Cause when I tried to do the secret question, they'd changed the secret question to "The name of the first pet" in Chinese.

So, fuck me. And, unfortunately, I can't remember all the shit I put in for my original email, so I might very well be fuxxored, completely in that regard.

My new MSN is [email protected]

That wiiickedly sucks Allen. =O

Do you have a new email for MSN and whatnot?

Also, for the WoW stuff did you alert Blizzard and whatnot? They might be able to restore some of what was lost.

Yeah, I've gotten my account back, at least, but they're taking their time on getting the characters back. Le boo. :( And I do have a new MSN, YOU WOULD NOTICE IT IF YOU READ FACEBOOK EVER. >:O But I'll put it in the first post. D:

It's not that I don't read Facebook, I just haven't creeped your page at all recently (until a few seconds ago) so I probably missed it on the news feed.

I thought China wasn't allowed to even know what electronics were or something. Man their government sucks at its job.

You'll get all your wow crap back. Takes about a week. Get an authenticator, though.

Also get yourself an ICBM. That'll stop them fucking with you. And possibly a tank in case anyone closer to home gives you shit.

Yep, usually I'm notably angry, but today is great! I get my MSN back(I missed my contacts D:), I woke up without a hangover, and I'm off to breakfast and then Wings to hit on a really cute waitress friend of ours. :D

So, funny story.

China had apparently turned my 80 warrior into a farming bot, and, when I got the account back, was full to the brim with titanium and saronite ore, and had about 2000g waiting in sold auction mails.

But when Blizzard gave me back my stuff? They didn't bother to delete the ore, or the money from the mail.

So, in the end, I have profited from China's terrorist actions. Hooray!

I'd had two 70s deleted, and all the gear EXCEPT the stuff Vas had been wearing(his tank set) had been sold.
