Ok, here is a short version of events.
Killed while AFK in Goldsmith by neronka: a lvl 12 warrior with a 1558 dmg breath spell. I am lvl 22 Warrior. "screenie shows him as lvl 16 cos it took me a couple minutes to get my poop together to take screeny)
while adventuring, I'm accused of hacking by GM "I am also admin" Warli. I ask Warli for his forum name, so I can gauge whether or not he's genuine. He does not respond.
Neronka (the lvl 12 firebreathing warrior) who killed me an hour or so ago, is now lvl 41. I am lvl 23.
Warli accuses my lvl 32 palading group mate of hacking, by having a horse.
Warli refuses to acknowledge any of my further questions regarding his Tradewinds forum identity.
Now a lvl 41 paladin player called DarkPaladin decides to kill me as well for 1558 breath damage.
WTH is going on? Has server been hacked ?? :nono:
Here are some screenies to back this up.

I am currently the only active GM and he will have his account suspended for killing allied NPC's and allied players. Thankyou for reporting this.

I really dunno man, it kinda threw me for a bit as to why a warrior would be breathing fire at lvl 12. For a minute I thought some bad acid from '93 had come back to haunt me. :hehe:
My biggest thing was that I didn't want to smartmouth this guy with the GM tag just in case he was the real deal, but everything he was saying and the way he was acting just made my remaining, functioning braincells stand to attention.
He mentioned something about "...having to find this supernoob warrior"... I'm thinking, "Wait a minute...you're a GM...you're omnipotent here ! You don't have to find folk, you just swing your +100 baseball bat of H4x0r Smashing."
Aaaanyways, Invisigod is on the case so I sure he'll be dusting off his +1000 Plank of H4x0r and GM Impersonator Smiting*.
*(Now with added rusty nails). :biggrin2:

Wait, answer these three questions for me.
1 "You are also admin" what did you mean by that.
2 This person had a GM flag next to his name? Might have been my newest GM I added last week.
3 Warriors breathing fire?

Sorry Invisigod, I'll elaborate because I was in a bit of a Flurry when I originally posted. Your questioned I've tried to answer at the bottom.
After being killed while AFK, my friend and I went to the Blasted Lands (died quite a few time there as well but by mobs :) )
Suddenly I got a tell from GM Warli "Do you want to fly to Jail?"
To which I replied "Sorry?"
Then warli appears from nowhere. My buddy says "Wow a GM !"
Warli then begins to accuse me of "hacking" without really making much sense.
I point out that he should be looking out for the lvl 12 warrior who nuked me back at Goldsmith.
I tried to ask him what his forum name was so I could come here and check he was real admin, but he just never answered. I asked his forum name 3 times in total and never got an answer. He then pops of into the ether again.
I had to head back to town to get repaired, then warli surfaces again and this time accuses my buddy of "hacking" to get a lvl 2 steed. My buddy then proceeds to show him where he bought the horse and bought the training for it. I then decide to Alt-Tab and post my original post on forum. When I Alt-Tab back in, I've been killed by breath weapon again, this time by the paladin I mentioned.
In answer to your questions:
1) He stated that he was also the server admin. "I am also admin" (I was quoting)
2) 99.9% sure he had GM prefix, was in his tell and in his tag, hence why my buddy said "wow GM".
3) The combat log said (i think it is shown in the screen caps) that both the death by the warrior and the paladin were by breath and damaged for around 1550.

Tell him to talk to iNViSiGOD, and that I requested him. If I don't hear from him then I'll nuke him myself.
Both users are banned. And I checked him, he has no Admin power at all. Thanks for reporting and keep up the good work. Neronka I couldnt find in the database though.

We have another hacker on server man, 72 Paladin called Pally, nub killed me then killed my ghost.
He's gone now I think, but I'll post some screenies so you can see I'm not having crack visions.
Check the gear he's wearing and offering but most of all check what he's saying. Also please make a note of the (if I do say so myself) ingenious test I set him to prove his authenticity :)
Sorry it's so many screenies but I was stoked cos I handled him much better than last one :)
