EGF THE KINGSLAYER Plus PayPal and WoW Account Issues
Hey kiddies, you may have noticed that posts have been sporadic and I’ve been slow to approve comments. Well, here’s my laundry list of excuses:
1. Real life commitments - film projects, family, girlfriend (in no particular order)
2. Someone broke into my apartment while GF and I were having a late dinner in the Village. Luckily, security quickly apprehended the idiot with the double digit IQ who tried to cart away every gadget and gizmo I had…erm, and some underwear. (DON’T ASK ABOUT THIS ONE!)
Sadly, said idiot had been working in my building for the last several months and everyone - including me - thought he was a nice, dependable dude. Always ready with a cheery "good morning, Sir!" Never failed to keep the premises clean. I shudder at the thought.
3. Been raiding a storm. Wiping, rezzing, repeating. Spent nearly 1K on repair bills (the horror!). But I finally got the Kingslayer title. Yup, my oldest toon - my beloved troll hunter - now proudly runs around Dal bearing the title. Now Alvin my guild leader wants us to work on getting the Bane of the Fallen King title once he’s sober again and gets back from celebrating with his latest GF (rumor has it he blew his life savings on a hotel suite to celebrate our achievement, which makes me wonder how he’s going to celebrate when we get the Bane title. Oh well, his problem, not mine).
4. Been having problems with PayPal. Long story.
5. One of my WoW accounts doesn’t have an authenticator attached to it. It’s a fairly new account I set up for review purposes, and it’s registered under a different name. When I logged into it recently, I was surprised to see one of the toons mysteriously parked in Ratchet. I never log out leaving any of my characters in Ratchet. They’re either in Dal or Shatt or Org. That toon is missing at least 300 gold. While checking my inventory, I was mysteriously logged out. Internet connection was fine and latency was at 60ms. The next few minutes turned into a log-in/log-out fest, like I was competing with someone else for access to the account. I quickly changed my password and ordered an authenticator online. I’m still waiting for that device.
On that note, I should tell you guys that more WoW accounts have been hacked recently and I hope you all have authenticators on hand. If not, please get one ASAP.
Have a safe weekend.
