Did Blizzard Get Hit By Their Own Banstick WoW Hacked

Hey folks!



So the other day, I received an email from Trion, the owners of the MMO Rift. They haz been Haxxored. Since I have no real worry about my account there (nothing even closely resembling WoW by email or password combination) I could really give a rats ass. But....

(Tobold hit on the Rift hack on his site if you want more reading on it: Tobolds MMORPG Blog)










This morning, I open up twitter, and see that Blizzards forums have been down...for 6 hours...so far. Did they get sliced as well? Whaddabout our Authenticators, did that server get hit too?








My wonder is....are we in trouble? Are our accounts safe?

Better be safe than be sorry, so after changing my WoW password, and re-linking my Authenticator, I feel more in control of the situation. You can never be too careful, huh?

I am sure more updates to come. Who knows, maybe they are just going through Maintenance on...a Saturday? Or maybe they are giving us all Christmas in game pets....ITS A CONSPIRACY I TELLZ YOU!

I wonder if they did get hacked, would they admit it? Not likely....

Did you Know Blizzard and Online Tickets

Not sure how many folks actually use this function, as it is fairly "new". Ever open a ticket in game and never get a response, or a generic one at that? I know I have. Reporting online is just as easy as in game, and I am gonna toss you some information on how to do it.

Now I know you are thinking, "This isnt a gold tip Alto", okay, okay. It is and it isnt. I wrote a post on the new changes to the Shuffle, and my 6/36 rule, but there were four other bloggers that hit on the new floor with the vendor changes seen in the PTR.... before I brought the post to life. If you arent first, you are last....Anyways!




First, you will need to be logged into Battle.net. I normally have a tab open at all times on my puter, as its basically a "remote AH" through there (more on that if you are interested...once again, just holler). Go to TicketHistory and you will see a screen like the pic above. If you dont see it, you arent logged in....so log in already!

Next, you will see an "Ask A Question" page. In Step 1, you can select what your issue is: Cant log in, something is wrong, issues with account or billing, or reporting your favorite bot/trade spammer/gold seller.





Once you choose a selection, you will then be prompted to add your realm and toon (character) along with a description of what your current issue is.

Please do your best to explain all the goods....I have noticed that the better off you are explaining, the better chance you have to get a "real" response instead of the cut and paste generics that we are used to.





Look below the Description box at the bottom of the page:



The best part about using this "ticket" system is the ability to add a file (i.e Screenshot, Image from a website- Undermine for bots-, or a txt if you really feel like writing a page question).

I hope this helps you in killing off your botters, answering your questions, and/or basically making your day easier when you have an issue in-game.

Like I mentioned above, holler out if you are interested in a post on my 6/36 rule or you can always comment if there is something you are questioning in game and I will do my best to answer explaining the process.

Remember folks, the weekend is upon us, so travel back in time to Feb when I posted this Clearance Sale post explaining a few tips I use to get prepared for upcoming sales. Have a gold filled weekend folks!
