I hacked an account and forgot to use a proxy.
But I secured everything(new email, pw, name, etc) and the guy doesnt seem too smart(one of those avvies you see all the time in rally)
Am I still screwed for my main if he reports?
Havent transferred or sold anything.
Most likely. They'll flag the IP and notice when you login on your main.
guess I better hope he doesnt report then =/
Damnit.
change your main then?still should have used a proxy though
Gaia rarely ever does anything by IP. Some of the most influential phishers on this forum have never used a proxy. They only flag your IP for repeat offenses - 2 accounts banned for different hacking cases within a week or something. The only thing they will track you by is cookies, which you should be clearing often. Dont trade anything to your main and if he reports it, you should be clean.
So If I logged out and cleared my cookies, Im in the clear?Quote:

They do keep a log of the account and they can check the IP's primary account.
Other than that..
Fuck proxy.. So slow D:
i dont think there gonna get you, just stay how you are right now for like a few weeks.
When I was young and stupid, I never ever used a proxy, never secured, and only had one step between my main and the scammed account. I took 50-100 accounts before taking a break for a few months. When I came back I took about 50 more before I got banned.
Of course, this was 2 or more years ago, so gaia may have gotten smarter, but I would say you're okay.
Well just hope he doesnt report but
If you use a proxy
Use cheatengine and target your webbrowser process and
Set speed hack to 5.0
And the internet will load uber Fast!
I never used proxies. lol i learned my lesson when like 15 of my accs got chain banned.
How would that change anything?Quote:

Log in to your main via proxy when trading.
Then they've got two IPs hooked to your account?Quote:

and if you do get banned, then he just got lucky, and your luck ran out for that hack.
Ive logged into friends accounts before.
If I get a chain ban will it affect them too?
or just the ones created on the IP?(i.e mine)
Also, any idea of like, when to expect it if at all?
damn i never use a proxy thanks thats why i lose millions of gold ever other week XD
There's a higher chance there gonna just track the items you sent away (if you gifted any) and once they hit the end in a gifted item, then they'll check the IPs to match them and possibly ban. Just do what's always recommended in securing guides and leave that account without moving anything for a week if your impatient.
Well theres a chance they can still
track..you if you didn't use a proxy just stay low for a while...
Just like Smithno says, Gaia rarely ever does anything with the IP.
So if you don't do anything stupid, you're fine. Hopefully.
Never underestimate those "Not too smart guys", cause when they notice that one of their coincidental favorite items is missing, they'll start wondering if something's wrong, then they'll look for a mod, then that mod will start to investigate.
So, if you want the account THAT badly, don't totally change the account, change the email by adding some numbers to it, and LEAVE THE AVVIE THE SAME OR GHOST IT. Do the same thing for the PW, just add a complex string of numbers, and have someone transfer the items and secure them from another location. (Eliminates the "Just one person did it" reason.) And never change the name of an account to where it stands out as suspicious, and you wanna log the account yourself and do it at night. (Secure the items at least, so no one isn't really on to notice things are missing.)
But to stay on topic, yeah, you fucked yourself on this one.
It is really random time, at least when I used to crack i could go 2 months without cracking and get a ban, or I could crack an account and within a few hours have a banQuote:
