After about a week and a half of showing off my party hat, I was still having a blast. It was amusing to see all of the level 80's, 90's and even a few 40's and 50's saying. "That hat you have is worthless, I'll buy it for (100 coins – 3 million)" or something of the like. I declined all of the offers, telling everyone that I knew the price, and they should stop trying to scam newbs out of their money.
I wore it 24/7 even when I was combat training. It looked so nice in contrast to my full Mithril armor. At times I had 10-20 people following me offering unfair amounts for the hat. Depending on my mood, I would decline mean, or nice. I was absolutely loving this attention.
One day, actually January 26th, at 4:07 P.M., I came home from school, happy as ever. This is the day I will never forget.
I opened my RuneScape page and tried to log into world 57. The screen opened and I typed in my username, Siege_me_7 at the time, and my password, which was storms at the time, and clicked log in. A few seconds later, and I was greeted with an "invalid username or password." I inspected my username, not a typo in site. I deleted my password and typed it in letter by letter. S-T-O-R-M-S. I clicked log in again, and was greeted by the same "invalid username or password." I repeated the process a few times, being greeted with the same, heartbreaking message. I realized that my friend was right. I had been hacked, and not having Recovery questions squashed my chances of getting my account back. I tried everything I could to get it back, but it was no use. I lost my White Party Hat.
