Hi.I was playing in a game with my pally when suddenly, i get a messeage from my own account on a different char (my nec). And the messege tells me that its this guy that used to be on my f list that took a 6bo cta from me. He says i have a noob ciclet (refering to my 2necskill 20fcr circlet 12res) and calls me a noob. So i get off my acc and change my pass just incase.
Anyway, do any of you know how he did this? Does he know my pass? Is it some kind of hack?
Thanks.

If he's on your account, then he must know your password.
Maybe it was really easy to guess.

Perhaps he just made an account that looks like yours (L's instead of i's, 0's instead of O's) and a character with a name close to your necromancer. It's awfully easy to trick people like that.

Aaah, thank you very much. My acc and and char both have O's in them so he probably made the same names with zeros instead of O's.
And if i was on my own acc, then would it be possible for him to log on it and play on one of my other chars if he did know my pass?
Thanks.

As long as he doesn't try to use the same character as you're on. I'm not sure exactly what happens when they try that, but I know that I've done things like having a friend I trust hop on my singer to give it a test drive, while I was in the game with my paladin. Of course, I made sure to put up a temporary password while that was happening, and changed it back right after, but still - it can happen.

You could have all of the characters in your account on at one time, and even in the same game. The only time that I've come accross problems is when you end up with two chars in the channels at one time (or just sitting outside the channels), that'll get them booted.
