Hacked/Hijacked?

#1
I think the server update is over and that everyone is playing again. It still want let me log in though. I used Firefox to save my password for Zorg (Which I do for everything) so when I tried to use password recovery, it wouldn't let me because I needed to delete all of the cookies. I did so, entered my email, and it said it didn't exist. I tried my other email thinking I had gotten it confused (I have 3 main ones) and it still said the same thing for all of them. I believe someone found out my password some how and hacked into my account and changed the email and password so I couldn't get in. The reason I have three emails is because I play another game where multi play isn't against the rules. I say this because someone else was threatened with ban when they said they had a book full of passwords and emails without specifying more than one account for Zorg.

Edit: I also never received any message as I would had I been banned. I was just unable to log back into the game after the server problem. Could someone have taken advantage of the server failure and found out my password?

Edit: I have confirmed that which email I used for the game, and password recovery still doesn't work. I am also not asking for a solution to my problem. I am asking the community if this is possible.

You need to email webmaster@zorgempire.net This looks to be a possible bad issue as I looked your planet up, saw the planet there, there no player names on it.... AND.... your name can not be found in player search. So I can't really say it was a hacked/hijack. I was able to pull up other players with no issues. Just not able to pull up yours. Once again, you must email your issue in.

The account was NOT hacked/hijacked. It was a bug. Quit dragging up old postings that have already been dealt with. This issue was already answered with instructions for the player to follow through on.
