I don't know how but my alt account: bloodyman123456 got stolen. It was probably today or yesterday, because when I tried logging in it keeps saying log-in failed. And I know I''m not typing it wrong because I've been trying for about an hour now. I made sure I didn't have caps lock on also. I had member and a 1.5 rating pleeassee help.

Have you tried email based password reset?

You give the password to someone?

I don't normally post in the SE section, but I swear, so many people are losing their account passwords. Tried the email reset? If that doesn't work, it could've been hacked. Did you use a secure password that you'd remember? I really don't know what to say. :|
Sorry man. :C

Either you forgot your password, you gave someone your password, or maxichang targeted you. I doubt it was a hacker.

Just get a secure password with a combination of letters/numbers/symbols that's 10-14 characters long. Shouldn't be able to be bruteforced by max

There're a lot of people who go around claiming to hand out "free membership" and ask for people's passwords. A lot of people who play this game are on the younger end of the scale and thus lack some common sense about it. On the other side of the spectrum some people ask to "borrow" your account with membership, which may have been the case here. Alternatively, if it was a shared account someone else might have been loose-lipped about his password. Or, maxchiang. lol
In short, never willingly give away your password. We moderators CAN'T do anything about that.

Where is maxichang anyway?
didn't he come on the forums apologising and asking for forgiveness? or was that someone else?

I think that was slipnot.

Yeah, @nutsophast
The last time I saw Max was when he drained slipnot's rating.

I didn't give the pass out to anybody, I know I'm late, but I think it was max. and I did try reseting, didn't work
