As long as you changed the email on the account and both the eqemu password and login account password you are 100% safe short of someone keylogging you.

I have escrowed countless accounts and have yet to have one get stolen back.

Yo Bobbay I have tried contacting you a few times

Really, just level your own characters on your own account that you don't share with anyone. All this stolen/sold account BS - too much hassle...and not what most people turned up for.

Out of curiosity, what's the deal with the former owner? Only ever heard that there was some big scandal or something, never the details. *popcorn*

Well, he can't spell his own name at any rate, assuming he's named after H.P Lovecraft's "Cthulhu".

"Spelling and pronunciation

Cthulhu has also been spelled as Tulu, Clulu, Clooloo, Cthulu, C'thulhu, Cighulu, Cathulu, C'thlu, Kathulu, Kutulu, Kthulhu, Q’thulu, K'tulu, Kthulhut, Kulhu, Kutunluu, Ktulu, Cuitiliú, Thu Thu,[2] and in many other ways. It is often preceded by the epithet Great, Dead, or Dread.

Lovecraft transcribed the pronunciation of Cthulhu as "Khlûl'-hloo" (IPA: [ˈχɬʊl.ɬuː] ?).[3][4] S. T. Joshi points out, however, that Lovecraft gave several differing pronunciations on different occasions.[5] According to Lovecraft, this is merely the closest that the human vocal apparatus can come to reproducing the syllables of an alien language.[6] Long after Lovecraft's death, the pronunciation kə-THOO-loo (IPA: /kəˈθuːluː/) became common, and the game Call of Cthulhu endorsed it."

There's a lot of options there, so even if the proper name got rejected you could still employ a legitimate corruption. Though I suppose most players are largely indifferent to their character names.

Which is a damn shame. I saw somebody complaining about their supposed BF who had deleted all their characters. Anybody got a level 20 character for sale? That's just either a pathetic cry for cheats or a great con.

Listen people, names matter. Our ancestors knew it. I mean, if you know the true name of a demon you can even control it! Just don't step out of the bounds of your pentagram, whatever they promise you.
