Hey everyone...

I am new to the game and have been hearing about hacking accounts. I dont want to know how to do it but I would like to know how I can keep this from happening to me. I have had people in the game wish to join my party and I always refuse because I am afraid they will take my stuff.

Is this possible?

So then, how do I avoid getting hacked?

Thanks

Pretty much the obvious:

Don't give out your ID and Pass.
Have a good pass, with mixed up digits and letters, and change it every now and then.
Don't use 3rd party programs.
Have some security as in Firewall/Virusscanner/Anti-Spyware.

Also, GM's will never ask for your ID/Pass, on the official website is a list with GM's, if any 'GM' talks to you that is not on the list, it's probably a fake.
Also, you will not receive any e-mails in which Joymax asks for your account info.

And as far as I know, there's no harm in partying up with other people lol, in fact, it gives you an exp bonus. It's not that they'll party with you and you lost all your gear the next second.

Sticky: [READ]SRO Account Hacks: How it's done and how to stop it.
Found in the Guides and Tutorials section. Highly recommended! Very detailed and includes almost every known method to keep your account safe.

If you're realy afraid that they will get your stuff and account download a IP canger (search on google)!
