My account was hacked

I was talking to a GM in game geting my items fixed and i added the authenticator to my account and it logged me out now i cant contact that gm anymore and i still needed some assistance.

So you canā€™t log back into your account?

Looks like things got squared away.

There is no place to click to appeal it tho. and why ban after a gm has already solved the hack issue? i got authenticator and everything now then i get a ban. im just curious is it just automated to do that? and thanks for the help!

You have to open a apeal account suspenion ticket seperately.

Orlyia are you able to give me a hand with this issue? and darthwraith i have no idea how to open a ticket i cant log into my account at all. should i use another account to open a ticket?

Edit: i used another account and opened the ticket there and another under the same ticket for when i got hacked. on the account i made then

Orlylia cant unlock your account unfotunately im on my phone so i cant link the apeal a suspensionor ban account.

i was able to open a ticket under the appeal penalty page.

I hope you mentioned that this appeal is a follow-up to having the account recovered after being hacked.

can you tell me how I can talk to the GM in the ingame

You canā€™t. Thatā€™s not available anymore. Best not to bump threads this old :wink:

Especially not to hijack another playerā€™s thread just because it seems tangentially related to your own issue.

I just asked and I also saw on YouTube that players can talk directly to the GM in the ingame but I donā€™t know how
