FAF Account Hijacked...

Postby lostcause » 25 Dec 2013, 01:28

Hi,

I play FAF under the username 'Jingles' and I was playing on galactic war with them at 16:00 UCT

I went out to visit relatives for a few hours this evening and and come back, and now I can not log onto FAF, it keeps telling me that my computer is tied to another account...

now unless a really weird someone has crept into my house while I was out and used my computer (highly unlikely) I do not see how my computer claims that someone else is currently using it?

is there anyway to untie my computer from all my accounts and allow me to log back in as Jingles?

thanks for the help,
Jingles

sure, what kind of logs would you like?

are we talking the log in details for my account or those using it (these are unknown) or are you talking about the files from the FA game folder?

now i'm mildly upset, does that mean someone has trashed my account and I need a new boot-up before I can play again?

mostly i'm just pissed off... there I was plodding along playing a game and was in the process of asking gyle about the idea of casing games on my youtube channel to help spread the word and along comes this HAF-assed **** and somehow ****s up my game... I mean I wouldn't care but I don't have steam... I bought both supcom and FA as a double disk box set when my store has a promotion on

is there anyway I can get back into the game? and i know its a long shot but is there any way we can find out who this haf-assed guy is so i can send him a xmas present?

thanks for the heads up though mate...

please someone help :p

Guys for me that seem's like you two are talking about your the same PC, whatsoever with steam account i belive more than one account can play on a PC and,
i think you should ask around in your family whole H-A-F is, the make a steam link for your account also and everybody is happy

and stop cursing, that helps nothing and it's Chrismas

and about the logs, i suggest you to read the big, FAT red box with the links again
