wow, that name brings back bad memories from EQ, Shoras on EQ was disliked and untrusted for similar hacking account reasons, trades that shouldve been called thefts and numerous other reasons...... I sure hope this isnt the same person.


Would a person be that stupid to use the same name and start the same crap in two different gaming forums? Much suckage.


Hopefully, if you supplied Mythic with that URL that they are working diligently to ensure their site/log-in screen will not be able to be linked from it any longer.

Sorry you and your guild had to feel the brunt of rip off artist in any capacity, hope everything works out well for you and the others.
