My account got hacked. I lost 2 months worth of mats for my crafting that just started to work on. Now i emailed and said i got hacked and your support team said they are unable to help. Fine i understand that. I’m not mad because you are unable to help.

I played many MMO’s before one of them being Dungeon Fighter online. (I belive they are ncsoft as well.) They had a thing called the Goblin Pin. You created your own 4 digit pin number useing 0-9. You had to steer the little goblin into the house with the corrasoponding number. the numbers changed randomly every time you when enter in a new number. You where prompted to use the goblin pin pad each time you when sell your gear, use the mail, or destroy stuff when you logged on each time it would prompt you once to make sure you where you.

I would like to see if you folks at arena net could do something simular, so even if the player does get hacked our hard earned stuff has at least one more system of defense. I suggest Quaggens and Quaggen Plushies!

They could also sell in videogame stores a gadget commonly called security token.
It’s a small device that every minute generates using an algorithm a one-time use code that you have to input along with the password in order to log in into your account. You tie its serial code to the account and there you go.
It’s commonly used for bank accounts which require an higher level of protection, but also for MMO’s such as Final Fantasy XIV.

Whether something is either wrong or right, someone will always complain about it.

Blizzard has a physical device you can use and a mobile authenticator. For Aion, there is a password to log in to the game and a PIN you have to enter to load a char. The PIN is entered via an on-screen keypad and the arrangement of the keypad changes every time.
