The Farewell Thread

Account was hacked, and all of my characters were killed, when I had some really amazing stuff that I wanted to keep really, really bad. It took 6 1/2 years, and I got my first Dirk of Cronus and Bracer of the Guardian on that one Archer, and I had so much more that I loved. But then it all just had to be taken away like that.

I’m not going through all of this again. I refuse to try this one more time. It’s happened once, and I tried coming back from it, but now this has gone much too far.

It was nice being on the forums, but I can’t continue from here, including with spriting or ideas. This game got me into all of it, but now, it’s going to be the thing that takes me away from it. It’ll take a miracle and a half to ever get me to come back.

If you ever see me in-game, it isn’t me. I don’t care if it counts as RWT, I’m letting someone else have my account, and they can enjoy what I can’t.


#1087

How did your account get hacked? I want to know if it is anything I should be worried about (with my trash collection of assorted whites and stuff)


#1088

Nah, it isn’t something you should worry about. I had a lot of really pricey items, so I was an obvious target for this kinda shit.


#1089

No, I mean like did you get it hacked from muledump or was it something unpreventable, like someone went into the database and got your password.


#1090

No clue. Don’t really care anymore.


#1091

That’s fucked. I hope ya can find something to do that you enjoy as much as RotMG. I’d personally suggest trying out Steambirds Alliance if you would like similar content.


Anyway, you may want to contact a forum admin to ban your account. Whoever has access to your account also has the ability to use your forum account now.


#1092

Nooo. I will miss you :sob:


#1093

That really sucks. I feel like account hacking is becoming a pretty big problem for games related to rotmg and forms in general. Just look at (a pretty big pserver you’ve probably heard of), they recently had a lot of accounts hacked.

Anyways, gl on life. Hope to see you on the forums again soon.

Edit:

Nooooo :sob:


#1094

No surprise there


#1095

Yeah, sorry. I simply just… don’t want to be associated with Realm anymore. I’ve put way too much into it, and I need to stop myself.


#1096

Okay, but isn’t it like quite difficult to hack someone unless you have leaked SOME kind of information SOMEWHERE on the internet?


#1097

People are able to find it without that. It has happened a lot more than you might think, both games and not. I’ve literally never shared my password, let alone the email that’s associated to the account.


#1098

Still remembers that day 8 years ago when my Minecraft account got hacked out of blue when I did literally nothing nervous


#1099

It’s not that it’s SUPREMELY rare but I was just curious. Hope you have a good life. Us no-lifes still playing this game.

I know this has been coming up for a long while, and I think my activity in this game has probably shown. There’s actually 3 reasons to why I haven’t been playing this game for awhile now.

1.RotMG has lost its charm for me. For awhile I was intent on solo-clearing an entire cult, which just never happened due to me losing a lot of drive for such goals. In the end it started to feel that the real enemy was just me getting disconnected part-way through the attempt (For those who obviously never saw me do it, I’m saying FULL clear. It was painfully slow.) I thought having the full necromancer ST set would do it but that obviously never happened. Long story short, I’m not having as much fun playing RotMG as I used to. Maybe it’ll come back in a bit of time, but right now there isn’t any.

2.Mental health - I’m not going to go into the details, but to summarize things up quickly I haven’t left my house for almost 2 weeks, and that time spent in my house has been ~20 hours each day in the same room. I’ve spent the best bits of two years in an endless loop of trying to solve my problems the wrong way, and the toll its taken is quite obvious. I started my Freshman year with completely Straight A’s, and over time through poor decision-making and trusting the wrong people (again a long story) dropped me all the way to B-C range Sophomore year, and now having completed my Junior year failing one of my classes and barely passing another. I’ve spent pretty much that whole time playing video games to forget about things, but that doesn’t really fix anything (if not make things worse). College applications are coming up for me, and if I’m going to want to have any chance of not living in my parent’s basement for the rest of my life, focusing on what’s important is probably a better idea than stressing out and playing video games.

3.This one isn’t as serious as the others, but the timing just happened to work out. In ~12 hours I will be leaving for the AID summer program, where you spend an entire month overseas in Taiwan teaching less fortunate people there English. I’m most likely going to spend that time teaching and rethinking a lot of things I’ve done over the past 2 years.

With all that out of the way, I’d just like to say a big thank-you to everyone here on the forums; my experience with this game couldn’t have been as fun without you guys. I’m really hoping that this won’t be my final good-bye, but there’s always the very high chance my soul gets sucked up by this game again. If so, see you guys in about a month.

Random sidenote

While I’m in Taiwan, I’ll be taking lots of photos as a form of self-therapy; if you guys want me to share them here, let me know and I will gladly do so because most photos I take are never shared anywhere, which kind of sucks.


#1101

Hope you have fun in Taiwan. <3


#1102

#1103

Share the photos with us, and have fun in Taiwan, man!

1 year ago today I came to these forums. I had only recently started RotMG and this community really helped grow my interest and passion into the game.

Recently I started to see that this community started to feel very different from when I joined. Whether that be a change in me or a change in the people on here, it seemed like there was much more toxicity and spoiltness in the community – DECA didn’t give chest event free etc. Lost Halls after a month or 2 started to kill my motivation, and joining max eff fame trains made me realise that fame, the thing that made me want to play RotMG, has been trivialised.

I haven’t logged onto RotMG for 2 months. The forums for about 1. I thought I should say bye. I’m probably not coming back, certainly not on the forums but you may find me ingame. Who knows? I’m deleting my discord in about a week too.

@Fluffegan @InfamousX you guys are 2 that I met ingame a while ago now and I want to thank you guys for making my playing more fun.

@Wilhuff I’m glad we cleared the air between us. Enjoy your life.

@SirSpud Good luck in your studies and on getting that Trix up.

@DeIusional I’m sorry that I won’t get to speak to you again. You’re a good guy.

Bye guys, hope you have a good life. I’ll come back in a few days to look over any responses :)
