Hacked?
Have you been hacked? You have come to exactly the right place! Here are tips on what to do if you have been hacked and what to do, who to contact and what may happen.
Why do hackers hack?
There are a number of reasons why hackers hack, and sometimes you can't tell why. Some of the most common reasons are that, people get jealous, want your items, want autographs, starcoins or want revenge for something you or your friends did. They may even want to take over your account! You can't always be sure. Hackers think it is cool... but in reality, its not. If you are a VIP, you are more likely to be hacked than non-VIPs. But don't worry! Help is at hand and here are some tips to use if you have been hacked.
I think I've been hacked-what do i do?
Keep a record of how many starcoins you have, how much fame you have (you never know what can go wrong) and how many recycled items you have. Also how many gifts you've given. If you think anything has gone wrong, or you've been hacked- you can check this against your records!
Getting to admin
Admin doesn't appear in the friends list- so... how do you get to Admin? Well- it's simple!
1. You know those levelling-up messages you get from Admin? Find one of them.
2. Click on the name "Admin", then you can click "Other" and "Send Mail" from there!

1. Never share your password!
I know- I'm stating the obvious. But seriously- loads of people send me mail saying: what's your pa$$word (because you can't type the word password). Sometimes they use the word p-word or even pass. Those people- report them. Even if they say "I'll give you 1,000,000 starcoins" or "I'll report you" because what would they report you for? And even the BEST of the BEST MSP players have only 500,000- only half of one million. SO DON'T EVER EVER EVER SHARE YOUR PASSWORD!!!
2. Less Money in your account?
Have you noticed that there are significantly less starcoins in your account? And are you level 3 or above? Don't worry- the hacker may have wanted gifts. Just go to "My Home" then go to "My Gifts" then click on "Gifts Given" (on the tab at the top). Scroll through and if you see anything unfamiliar, report it or send mail to Admin.
3. Making a safe password
Remember to use different symbols, letters in CAPS and lowercase as well as numbers. Don't use common words or the word password.
Or30~c00K13 or H@l3z/BuBz would be quite a safe passwords (BTW, these aren't our real passwords and don't use them either). Make sure you remember it and if you EVER write it down, make sure that it is in a SAFE place.

4. The clothes in my account have gone!
Okay so I don't know if you remember, but like a month ago, we all got hacked and loads of our clothes were taken! If this happens, delete ALL your looks (the ones you've made of yourself, the one's other people made of you, and the ones you've made of other people) and within 24 hours, all your stuff will return!
