The only way this can be helped is for you to say you forgot you password and have them erase/change/send you the new one to the e-mail address you signed up with.

I can tell you with certainty that accounts don't get hacked on FFR. How many friends have your password?

Cheers,

You don't send it. Try logging in as you normally would with your old account. There will a button that says "Click Here" in the text. Type in the email address you used to sign up for ffr originally, the password in use right now on the account will be changed to a series of random numbers (and possibly letters) and the new password will be sent to that email address. Then just log into your email address and BAM you have the password to your old account.

i got a report from someone else that Spitfyre619 hacked their account. although IIRC, that same person told me before that that he had given his password to Spitfyre619.

therefore, my advice would be... don't give your password to Spitfyre619. or, really, my true advice... don't give your password to ANYONE. even if they say they'll get your tokens. which is more important, getting 1 or 2 tokens that you shouldn't even have because you can't get them yourself.... or losing your account because you gave your password to someone who abused it?

This happened to my girlfriend's account too, I think her case was because of a key logger however.

He gave the password probably because he wanted skill tokens.

I have the password of a few accounts but they are lucky that I r one good person.

Oh, btw, if you make a pass and you think you are actually being hacked since you don't give out pw's for skill tokens, makes sure your password isn't retarded like "double" or "batman" because worded passwords are as easy to crack as anything else.

They aren't as easy to crack as cracking has to do with bots and that depends on how long your password is and cracking on FFR is next to impossible with that security feature that only gives you five chances to log in. However don't make your password iceman and other really common or easy to guess passwords. Also I don't think this is hacking as I think you merely have a key logger. Only for sure way to get rid of it is reformat. Until then...I would hate to be you

That's stupid and funny!! "Uh, my account got hacked from a person who I gave my password to..." That's like saying "Synthlight ate the PB and J sandwich I gave him!"
haha :lol:

I'd laugh if you're saying these passwords, and people are thinking OH GOD, HOW DID THEY KNOW. I would laugh soooo hard. Also, if someone were to hack you. Why would they just use FFR. If you've prolly used like credit cards, I doubt they would just steal your ffr. That's like cynial.

Proud to be an AVG pro, and Avast pro user. =D

First off, handing out one's password to ANYONE is likely grounds enough to get you banned, regardless of what they do to you.

We hear the whine all the time that "my brother / cousin / friend" did xyz. Think that keeps them from being banned?

So enough whining about the that folks.

Nuff said.

hmmm, i never had that problem with my pw =/

And this is definitely fair warning. If you come to me and tell me your account was "hacked" because you gave your password out, you will definitely lose your account, I will zero all it's stats and I will slap the IP ban on you.

hellz yea, it's not ffr's fault for your pw being known on the streets!!

lol, I had my account pw figured out before, like months ago, on a different account, and I couldn't get on chats because of it...

But I found out what to do, just change the password before they can figure anything out about my profile, lol, I changed it to a PW that ppl will have a REALLY hard time guessing.

chidori!
