People being hacked since the last Server Check.

Wondering about the latter comment as well. How would it work if the hacker got onto your account while it's locked for "suspicious activity", banned or even when you were still on it? All of those checks seem to happen at the initial login screen. *hopes that Nexon has additional authentication thoroughout the login process*

Pretty sure they check again at the channel select screen too, if you're on a banned account and you use the website to log in you get to the channel select screen before getting 'You have been disconnected from the server.', whereas if you use GameLauncher it doesn't let you get past the ID/pass screen.

I was thinking, maybe the method that was shown is how certain accounts are targeted (i.e. look for characters worth looting), and then the hackers are able to retrieve the log in and password since they are technically already connected to the account. Kind of like how when you're in-game and you hover over the level/job/IGN area on the bottom left it tells you your log in ID. Seems like it'd work, but that wouldn't be able to explain how they bypass the PIC system (or even get the login details).

Also RE: Blades4hire, he's on a mult account called Revamp now anyway.

This whole situation sucks.
