Currently being hacked

My partner’s account is currently being hacked. We found out through a friend who send us a text wondering why he left the guild.

Password has been reset (both account and email) and we have been trying to get them to disconnect through Security page by removing trusted networks. Unfortunately, they have managed to enable an authenticator, so they were able to add their network as trusted within 5 seconds. Account recovery, using serial, didn’t help as we are unable to disable the authenticator. Ticket was submitted as soon as we found out. PC was scanned for malware but nothing was found.

Any advice on what to do next? It is rather painful to sit here and watch this Korean bot playing my partners characters while we’re unable to do anything about this. We were hoping to prevent any further damage by disabling access, but this is prevented by the authenticator.

Is there an official statement on this? And should I report people for using food?

Are consumables allowed in the Dragon Ball Arena?

So that means me: Mathiesin, is reviewing (formal assessment or examination of something.) which is an observation based on experience, am providing a review for other to read.

You do realise you posted your review on a public forum that is used for discussions, right? Just making sure, because you don’t seem to take any form of valid criticisms in regards to your review and the ‘facts’ you provided.

As much as you’re trying to impose your opinion on us, everyone else can do the same on you.

tl;dr: If you don’t agree with the ‘facts’ Mathiesin presented in this review or if you have a different experience with Guild Wars 2 than him, don’t bother replying. You can serve the truth on a gold platter and he wouldn’t even recognise it.

Geotherma, unfortunately I can’t find the faults for my bad luck at myself. So yes, Arenanet is therefore the closest and most logical target.

Equanox, they should definitely shed some light on these issues.

Vayne, perhaps you are unlucky indeed. Just like me. Lets be unlucky together.

BuD, interesting theory. Perhaps this also works for Facebook? In that case, my bad luck could be explained.

Jandus, as I wrote earlier it is impossible for me alone to gather enough date. It’s a hunch. I wish it was possible for me to proof it, but unfortunately I don’t have access to the data needed. Needless to say I still consider it fishy. Off-topic: I agree, the British education system is horrible. The lectures I followed the past year were absolutely horrible.

Hawkian, at that point I would drop it. I will just have to assume they speak the truth (which would be plausible considering their track record). Especially since I can’t generate enough data myself to investigate this an further.

Amfibija, positive reinforcement. People buy something in the Gem Store with real money and are ‘rewarded’ with an hidden increase in Magic Find, resulting in ‘better’ drops. These signals are positively stored together and the act of buying something in the Gem Store with real money is reinforced.

Geotherma, of course this doesn’t sound plausible. However, I remember reading an article about an MMO were system players had more agro and this was proven by the community after a few months. In the end it got fixed. Perhaps this hidden Magic Find gain is similar to the issue I described?

New Character Yo, I’m pretty sure this is not suppose to be publicly known because this would cause rage in the gaming community. There is of course a positive reinforcement element in this story.

Vol, there is probably a delay in the increase to avoid it from being too obvious. Further more, with this hidden Magic Find increase you can still be unlucky and not get good loot. Of course the chance of that happening is lower than those who don’t spend money in the Gem Store.

More proof that Gem Store purchases yield some sort of fishy Magic Find bonus.

Give it one more week, MrKnieves. Do a few world bosses and I’m sure your Gem Store purchased ‘hidden’ Magic Find will kick in.

Jandus, of course it’s impossible for me to single-handedly gather enough data on this matter to get any sort of statically significance. It is, how ever, a fishy matter, to say the least.

I am extremely unlucky in this game in terms of drop. Everything I put in the Mystic Toilet returns nothing but crap. Chests from world bosses, dungeons and fractals contain blues, greens and maybe a yellow.

Interestingly enough some people around me bought the Molten Alliance Mining Pick and those people, after said purchase, actually got precursors. Do I dare say that ‘significant’ purchases in the Gem Store have a hidden effect on Magic Find?

Yes, I dare. Discuss!

Also, it doesn’t work with your own fields. Which I believe is as intended.

Combo killer works when you open the fight with a combo field + finisher. And since lots of people want to get the daily, just ask in map chat for someone else that needs it too.

Guild Wars Temple’s Dragon Timer covers most, if not all of the servers. It’s been a great help to me and is quite accurate!

I felt like going on a shopping spree today and wanted to buy some ectos to make some exotics. To my surprise the TP said that there were no ectos available…

I asked around in LA and some of us came to the conclusion some people can and some people can’t see ectos as available on the TP. Can anyone confirm this?
