How exactly did you get "hacked?"
I've no idea, none at all. I hadn't even been playing for a while, mostly refreshing chars/mules once a week. I logged in three days after my last refreshing of my chars to find them stripped of all runewords, skiller's, torches, anni's, upgraded uniques, decent uniques, all charms worth a second look, merc gear too. I mean they took it all, even things like "spirit" shields, "Insight" and "Obedience" polearms(several of which were ethereal), of course all of the elite uniques like COA, Arachnid's, Drac's and other stuff like double upgraded bloodfist's etc.
It hurt mostly because I had several legit runewords, things I never imagined I'd actually make. Beast, two Hoto's, two Death weapons, the anni's and the COA were 100% legit, self found/made with self found runes. I doubt I'll ever achieve that again, ever. So yeah, they got the mother load. I'm sure they're very proud.
