UPDATE 2I want to give a huge thank you to Mod SteveW for taking the time to look into this, and anybody else who took this seriously and tried to help, and making me feel like I did the right thing. I very much would have regretted ignoring this whole situation. I Hope the very best for the player in question.

UPDATE1 He logged back on and told me he said he loved me and that he almost killed himself... I'm going to do my best to keep in touch with him and make sure he doesn't do anything he would regret...

ORIGINAL POST He is even saying he will live stream it. I dunno if this guy is serious but he's telling me his best friend just commited suicide 3 hours ago and he is going to do the same thing to be with him... I've heard of mods calling police on players doing this before. i'd like the same to be done somehow or something please??? He just logged out not sure if he will log back in but i'll send pics of h...

Hey

Did you report this incident in game ? If you did we will already be aware of it. If you didn't please call your local Police to report it. Tell them they can contact us for details on the player and chat logs if they need them by emailing [email protected], we will respond within a few minutes of receiving a genuine request.

You can also send your account name and the account name of the person who may be at risk to that email address in this situation.

Thanks

Can we have some CoX QoL updates? Currently it feels very bogged down compared to ToB. Suggestions: Remove small scavs, add extra farming patches, allow us to block up to 3 rooms or guarantee up to 2 (so that we can avoid the slowest/worst rooms or guarantee the fastest/best rooms without having to operate an alt farm), add a rakeable patch next to farming patches, insta-fill all water gourds, speed up herb growth, increase the amount of secondaries dropped by scavs.

None of these changes would increase top tier raid points/hr because these actions are all handled by alts already.

I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised in the near future.

I really like a lot of these changes. Are there plans to replace the doors at the farming guild with barriers or something of the sort?

Yes, this is coming very soon

Thoughts on lowering the melee defensive stats little bit on Alch hydra to make melee bit more viable option?

We’re considering this to make the lance and other melee weapons more viable

Why not both? We haven’t tended to poll the jars POH decorations so I can see this happening.

I guess it does. My problem with it is that this would make drakes very similar to basically every other slayer creature, instead of keeping them slightly special as a high effort monster.

Maybe it's just a personal preference, but it seems more interesting to increase the reward to match the effort, rather than decrease the effort to match the rewards.

That’s fair enough, we’ll see how the poll goes. We added this particular one because we’d been hearing a lot of players say they wanted them to be less effort to fight.

SO you realise that trawler is boring, slow and dead so instead of fixing that and adding improvements to it, you want to just add its only good reward to another bit of content?

I know that will pass because the vast majority of this playerbase want everything to be easy and afk and do not care about integrity but that is a shitty decision and is a bad precedent.

I get where you’re coming from. My understanding from talking to the team is that everyone would like the trawler to be made better but there hasn’t been the time. As a semi-temporary fix I thought offering the reward elsewhere at a slower rate would at least give players the choice rather than forcing them to engage with unpopular content. Personally, I’d love to see changes made to make the trawler more fun and take a different route with the rewards such as giving more fish.

We understand that with big releases come lots of new items which results in more pressure to manage bank space. While we're unable to offer increased bank space at this time, we are exploring other options. One of the suggestions we've seen includes a Seed Vault being added to the Farming Guild. If this passes, we could consider other similar storage options for certain item categories in the future.

I don't see the actual poll question for this. someone forget to add it?

The poor phrasing is my bad, I’ll make this clear tomorrow morning: we want to flesh out the design of this idea before offering it in a poll. This section was just to show we’ve acknowledged the demand.

Poll Question #10

Should the Dragonfire and Antidragonfire shields offer full protection from the Drakes' special attack?

Not a fan of this change. It will only make the task very afk without actually fixing the issue with drakes. They are currently too slow to kill while also not being rewarding enough. I'd prefer if their hp was reduced, drops improved, or just make them a very small task, like dark beasts.

This should make them more rewarding relative to the effort they take. We’re also looking to reduce their defences.

Whoops! I’ll get that fixed tomorrow morning

Dude could've bought 64 years worth of bonds with that money and gets 1 month membership as compensation.

Also while Jagex responded they somehow forgot to mention how the hijacker bypassed the pin. Hmmmmm.

I can't tell that, I can say that the hijacker had not logged in days before and begun a cool down, so they knew the PIN on the day they gained access, whether it was shown on stream, guessed, I don't know .. the info I can see on PINs is very limited

It amazes me that you guys can give people access to accounts like that.

I asked for my old account back where I had literally all the information available. I admitted to sharing the account with a friend back before it was openly accepted. I was told that they had enough proof that I had been playing on the account since creation and despite having all the correct information, I wasnt allowed to recover simply because the account wasn't registered by myself.

I fell out of contact with the friend who I created with and the account has been since lying dormant.

And they say it pays to be honest...

Unless I've misunderstood you, that is exactly how it should work, if you are not the account creator, you have no claim on the account?

Thank you so much. I just hope after my own recovery request they’re not able to consistently try to recover it with the previous information gathered. Once again, thank you so much for your effort in this situation. I can’t thank you enough for clearing this up, & I hope to have my account secure again. Much love

The cleaning of the account should ensure that malicious recovery is not possible again. If there is anything we can do to try and put a smile back on your face just let me know. I have added 1 month of membership to your account free of charge, I didn't mention that in my first post as I didn't want people to think I was attributing that value to your loss and I thought it would be a small 'pick me up surprise' for when you next log in.

UPDATE: My account seems to be in my hands again. THANK YOU so much to everyone in this subreddit who helped me with this situation even with a simple up vote, I don't know if this could have worked if it wasn't for your help. Just want to thank Mod Stevew for his effort in this, and for his awesome customer support on this thread. If anything else happens to my account I will update further, but for now it seems to be secure in my hands again. :)

Original Post: My username is Nelsi, & my account was recently hijacked today. They were able to recover the account somehow & were able to bypass using my email to gain access, & somehow have linked their email to the account through the recovery system. I have authenticator, pin, secure username, pass, never clicked any links etc.

I have checked my crystal math labs & it seems that they’re using my account to stake. I don’t care about the money I lost I just need help getting my account locked and returned safely. Any h...

Hi,

I've had a chance to look into this unfortunate situation. The first thing to get straight is that this has absolutely nothing to do with any staff misconduct or similar. This situation was caused by a very persistent, motivated person who was set on gaining access to the account.

They have obtained various pieces of key information relating to the account, likely over a period of several months, sufficient to submit a credible recovery request. Information included log in, creation date, creation ISP, creation location, postal code and some passwords - with some of this information stretching back over a number of years.

This person also attempted to mask the location that they were submitting the request from and make it appear that it was being submitted from the owners location. That doesn't fully work and we are able to spot it, but it does also mean that the owners location is known, as the hijacker knows where to try and make the request appear ...

Edit: Thanks for my first award ever, quite unexpected :)

Nice idea
