Just use the Reset password option from the Login page and then change your E-Mail password as well for good measure. I doubt you'll be able to get your char or your stuff back, but someone else will have to give more info on that.


Also, it's likely you didn't lose a ton of important stuff though and you can always make a new char and experience starting somewhere new and intriguing.

All right, there's bad English and then there's not even trying, I'm sorry, I can't make sense of anything you're saying in those past two posts, care to try running what you're trying to say by someone else that might be able to write out better responses?

The devs don't revive characters or refund items that have been lost.

Try to send loftar and jorb a message asking them to check the ip of the player logging into the account at the time and they may be able to punish them.
How did this person hack your account?
You definitely should change your password and e-mail.

Maybe you left your account logged in somewhere? Even on your own computer at home? And some 'friend' decided to do this thing as a joke. Physical access to the computer is a MUCH more common point of weakness than keyloggers.

To confirm something - when you create a new character, do you see a runestone in the character creation room? Is it possible for you to inherit from your old character?

AND

Have you committed any crimes? Is it possible that someone summoned you and killed you for the crimes, rather than 'stealing your account'?

'Hackers' and 'stolen (speaking accounts, not items ofc)' is 99% people letting other people access their stuff. Dont let people access your stuff, thats really all there is to it.
