and you still didint asnwer Rotsauce post...Well one last post here and I think I'm done. I do understand what you are saying but honestly would have to disagree. If someone was talented enough to get a keylogger on my PC or hacked my email account they could certainly do much more damage and gain substatially more money than hacking my KOL account. You yourself referenced an email bug in a previous post...this wasn't my bug. For you or the company to make a blanket statment that no restorations will be given is absurd to the players. I don't expect that items would be restored in a day or two but with some investigation those people who are trying to take advantage of the system could be rooted out and restoration made. Oviously the player base is not made up of 100% legitimate players...if it was there would be no reason for all of the security steps being taken. When you see a huge spike in the number of players that are reporting that their account has been hacked a light should go off. There are some really talented dishonest people out there. They will find a way around the system and exploit any weakness they find. They will get banned - patches will be done and things will run smoothly until they figure out the next way to breach the system. What is really happening is that loyal longstanding players are leaving. It's not that they want to but when you or the company says that " I read hundreds of posts on TR side where people lost substantial amounts of gear, and they got and will get nothing restored" what other option does a legit player have.
I'm sure that somewhere in all of these posts you have probably defended a player...it's just that I've never read one.
