Thanks for visiting my page.

After 15 years on the game and reaching number 1 in the game in terms of wealth this happened to me:

Howrse locked my account on 13 November 2024 (reason: possible account theft).

I was super worried, but was still able to change my password and logged a request to let me know what happened.

I waited for five nerve-wrecking days. On 18 November I was told that the account was now accessible again but that I will no longer be able to access sales and exchanges till May 2025.

Here is the explanation I got from the Owlient support interface:

"Making a profit from a stolen account goes against our terms of use and in the medium to long term is detrimental to the economy of the server.
As a result of the investigation carried out, our team has confirmed that you significantly contributed to this.

Our decision is final and will not be changed. We now consider this matter closed and will close your request for this reason. Please note that any further responses regarding your sanction will also be closed without further comment."

To all the players who have interacted with me, you know that I would never cheat and all the years have just wanted to enjoy the game. As a VIP you can autobuy horses. Now another player has explained to me that I might have bought cheap horses from a stolen account and might have profited from selling them. If that is the case, obviously I didn't know about this.

Just be aware of my story and count yourself lucky if nothing like this happens to you. If it does, no proof will be given to you for any claims made against you and you will have no rights to defend yourself.
