[QUOTE=Krat;34789617]If my previous account was "phished" (read: I hadn't used it in a long time, and some time last year some passwords got out somehow) and banned for it, is it possible to get that account restored? Does that happen on these Forums? Apologies if this is a common question, I get little time to browse forums but try to get some time in once in a while.[/QUOTE] Probably, but what's the account? [editline]20th February 2012[/editline] And did you have an account on battlefield heroes?

[QUOTE=postal;34789892]Probably, but what's the account? [editline]20th February 2012[/editline] And did you have an account on battlefield heroes?[/QUOTE] I did, actually. Would that be related? I did have some kid buy £40 worth of GamerPoints on my live account, and I think that was EA's fault. Oh that was a [I]fun[/I] day of annoying customer support until I got my dosh back... [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/members/69139-RedSon"]This is my previous FP account, by the way.[/URL]

this is why you don't use the same passwORD ON MULT[B]IPLE WEBSITES[/B] battlefield heroes passwords leaked, some clever person took the passwords and usernames and logged into facepunch accounts with them. Can you still log into the account?

Wait a minute, I have a battlefield heroes account :ohdear:

Can you still log into the account?[/QUOTE] Just tried it with the old password, which it said had expired (only 238 days old, cough). I've changed it to one i've never used before. Also I like how EA never bothered to get a hold of me about any potential leaks. I might have to have words with their terrible online customer service people.

Right well your account is now unbanned. Please take care to never share passwords between anything.

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;34790148]Wait a minute, I have a battlefield heroes account :ohdear:[/QUOTE] only people in the beta were affected iirc

Why thank you. And a lesson for everyone today: Never play Battlefield Heroes. Ever.

[QUOTE=anton;34790258]only people in the beta were affected iirc[/QUOTE] I was in beta :ohdear:

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;34790272]I was in beta :ohdear:[/QUOTE] I think I only played it for half an hour too. Villany isn't picky, I suppose. [I](Am I supposed to turn gold now, by the way? It changes every time I come here...)[/I]

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;34790272]I was in beta :ohdear:[/QUOTE] this happened like half a year ago or something, nothings gonna happen to you now

[QUOTE=Nintendo-Guy;34790472]this happened like half a year ago or something, nothings gonna happen to you now[/QUOTE] All the passwords were also MD5-hashed.

[QUOTE=Jo The Shmo;34789542]thank god, mass debate was getting worse every day[/QUOTE] Tell me about it.

[QUOTE=Nintendo-Guy;34790472]this happened like half a year ago or something, nothings gonna happen to you now[/QUOTE] Wait what? I thought the beta was like 2 years ago or something.

[QUOTE=Dragon;34787953]That's not nice! But if you read into ban reasons you can tell we really want to put it there anyway sometimes.[/QUOTE] dergon those bans were the best bans - issued when people couldn't really be banned for any valid reason but they were so fckIng retarded everyone knew they had to go

[QUOTE=Zackin5;34792157]Have you tried disabling the extension?[/QUOTE] Yes, and I installed the extension after I had the problem anyways so that couldn't have caused the issue

do vid tags work for more things then just webm files?

What's the story behind Hezzy? Who is he? What happened?

[QUOTE=Bumrang;34794507]What's the story behind Hezzy? Who is he? What happened?[/QUOTE] He was an administrator with Garry (how that came to be, I have no idea. I wasn't there at that time). Eventually he made the minecraft forum, because people were asking for it. But Garry got pissed and removed it, and banned hezzy, and then restored the forum due to popular demand. So that in the end, hezzyy's work stayed, but he didn't.

rip Hezzy

Hezzy did a bunch of admin stuff but garry didn't like his attitude or something

[QUOTE=Dragon;34794636]Hezzy did a bunch of admin stuff but garry didn't like his attitude or something[/QUOTE] I thought heezy got de-modded because he added the minecraft subforum without Garry's permission, and he went on to make a big post about how he disagreed with him.

And then hezzy made a post which ended in "i'll come back only if you apologize," I believe

Normally Garry doesn't listen to public requests, but he did then for some reason. [QUOTE=Ac!dL3ak;34794848]And then hezzy made a post which ended in "i'll come back only if you apologize," I believe[/QUOTE] And I believe Garry said he wasn't at fault, so he wasn't going to apologize.

[QUOTE=areolop;34794419]do vid tags work for more things then just webm files?[/QUOTE] I know they work for mp4 files I'm sure there are others too

I didn't know hezzy for very long and we never had any direct contact with each other but he was a chill br0 rip hezzy never 5get
