Hacked!

That’s right, I recently experienced the sheer ecstasy that is having your WoW account hacked!

This isn’t the account that I was playing on most recently, but rather the very first account that I’d made, with the two characters that I painstakingly raided with: “Weevil,” and “Hawtgrrlirl.” Yeah, hawtgrrl got some pretty interesting tells. Yeah, I saved a couple of them for later scientific inquiry. Between the two was about 91 days of /played, and in the short time between my friend spotting “Weevil,” and me calling Blizzard support, they had been transferred to another server.

I think the whole thing is kind of funny. The story goes best as a MasterCard advertisement.

Two character transfers: 50 dollars.
Burning Crusade expansion: 50 dollars.
Two month time card: 32 dollars.
Spending 130 dollars simply so that the real owner can take back the account you stole?

Priceless.

So I guess now that I’ve got BC and 2 free months, I might as well play, right? Well see, it’s kind of perfect for a game addict, because the two 60s I poured myself into are stuck in another dimension. I guess I could go play on that other server, but the cool doodz i knoez are on Tichondrius.

And I’m going to Singapore with a kick ass book proposal.

Whats a Tauren to do?
