Yes I got my account back very quickly. Snarkie told me directly I was jumped to the front of the queue because of my place in the Showdown, so I'll be allowed to compete. Now the only issue is waiting for them to unconvert my pets again.
The first response I got, which was a ticket response telling me I could log back into my account, said that it was impossible.
So I made a board and hardcore ranted about how ridiculous that was since it had been done before. Snarkie posted and said that that was an automatic response, which is dumb I think, but that she would be asking the programmers to look into it tomorrow and that she knew it wasn't my fault and that they would not leave them converted if they could help it.
So I'm going to have faith here that it will be righted, but if they tell me they can't fix it, well...let's just say I'm done being sad, it's time to get angry.
Request policy stops one site requesting data from another without your consent. So if you're on neopets, anything coming from neopets will go through without needing to be whitelisted.
Thank you very much for this. Billgasm getting hacked yesterday was what finally pushed me over the edge and made me switch back to Firefox, even though I love my Chrome a little too much. I've already done everything you've said here, except whitelisting Neopets for NoScript, so I just took care of that. Thank you for helping to inform people, and keeping our accounts safe!
Sorry, thought I should use my own face for once XD Might change back to a bill face soon enough :P
I care about everyone here so I don't want anyone else to go through what I just went through, especially since they won't be put on the fast track to get it solved. Stay safe! <3
You're welcome :) They're being posted all over Charter so I figured I need to bring them here for everyone too!
That I am not sure of, I didn't realize it would not turn it off for guilds too. It might be different when it comes to guilds since there aren't individual created topics, just posts.
Not sure, I believe that the CGer is put into the signature, but when the post is actually made, there isn't a signature. From what I remember when I looked at the topic that had one, I don't recall a signature.
It just might be different when it comes to guilds since it's all posts and no individual topics, I will have to look into that. I'd just say be cautious for now.
first, i'm so glad you got your account back but i totally understand needing your pets back as they were too. *crosses fingers and toes* it must have been devastating and i applaud you for being able to handle this so well.
i also want to say thank you for informing people about this. i started using everything i could when this alert first came out the beginning of this week i think? (on the ac) i'm just amazed at the lack of credibility these boards have with issues like this. i (suppose) it was someone from charter last night on the mall board trying to alert peeps and there were actually a LOT of people calling this a hoax and one big joke and impossible to do. it was truly sad to read.
It truly was. I didn't even realize it when I logged on, even though my active was my previously UC wocky. I was on the charter boards and saw a topic that said "CGed and my pets are converted!" by a user I knew of, so I clicked and saw that her extremely rare UC plushie uni was now converted, so I made a post saying NOT YOUR UNI!! And that's when I noticed. My wocky was converted, then I quickly checked and saw my kyrii was too. I didn't even react. I took like fifteen minutes before I even had a reaction.
And you're welcome, Charter boards are spreading this info around and I wanted everyone here to be safe too! I had some people saying to me that it was impossible, and to those people, I just say whatever, it's your account. I'm not going to care about those who don't care about their safety. It's so totally not a joke, especially not when this has happened to close to TWENTY people from that one board.
I would fall over dead. I've got faith that TNT will put it right though. Jeez, I hope they get her Uni back too. I'm not going anywhere near the boards, my UC Fae Ixi is going to stay that way. :(
Yeah, I'm very happy of my circumstances, being in the showdown has put my case up to the very front and a staff member told me directly it would be worked on in the morning, so now I'm just waiting.
And yes, stay away from the boards completely if you can help it, nobody should have to have this happen to them.

So when you turn off NeoHTML and signatures for the boards it apparently doesn't turn it off for guild boards. Do we think this is a problem?
