a friend of mine had an veteran account for 4 years, 2 weeks ago he logged off and logged back on and all his char are gone, website char viewer no longer can find them , and nothing we have been able to work out can find them , a support ticket to cryptic has been less than useful as they requed infomation he dosnt have any more from 4 years ago to prove he is who he says including original STO box code and considerd the matter closed , he recently created a new account to play again and after a week once again they have all gone, im typeing this message as my friend is having a hard time looking at anything to do with STO right now,
any thing about this happening befor or ways to solve it , thank you all for your help
Did he use the same email account? Could be a hacker giving him a hard time. Try making an account with a brand new email and see if it happens again.
Sorry to hear about it, get ahold of the community manager laughingtrendy. Branflakes was able to expedite these sorts of issues...i assume she could as well.
I know this has nothing to do with your problem but.. where is the "website char viewer" :eek:, i didnt know we can see our characters through the webpage..
About your problem, im sure any mod will pass by and let you know that they are investigating. Be patient. I mean, your friend..
The character viewer won't show newly created characters on new accounts think it's like level 10 or so and it takes a few days for it to update.
If the same issue happened on a new account then something else is going on. I would suggest he run a full virus/malware/keylogger scan of his computer.

I too went to log on after a short downtime to find both my characters gone. I have put in support, but doubt I will hear much from them.
Sad that all my hard time put in is now gone. Now I only get the option to start over. Yet they swear they don't delete characters which I say is BS.
Now everything says my join date was last month, which is total TRIBBLE. I had 1 level 11 and another near 40 if I recall right. No trace of them, nothing shows in character viewer. So looks like I just get to start over with nothing. If that's the case I won't be playing.
I have the worst thought... it may be someone hacking your entire house.:eek: You'd have to move out to avoid it, and whoever's hacking would follow. So, if you get 2 new PCs and they seem to have their STO accounts deleted, call 911:eek:. Other than that I can't predict or guess anything.

If you do a user search on the forum there is a user called Bsgogod which is probably no coincidence being so close to your bsgogodd. Maybe you actually have got 2 accounts now and your toons are all sitting in the bsgogod account.
Edit: okay the similar name may not have been yours as it is ancient and not played STO apparently but your own profile does say 18th June rather than the forum date of july so all is apparently not so bugged as it appears.
Going through my emails from PWE, it does seem bsgogod was the correct one, but if I recall when I had to sign up for the new system I could not use that so had to add a letter to the end. Now it seems I can not figure out how to sign up the correct name.

Yes, key logger is a possibility

Still waiting to be able to use forum titles
Thank you for pointing it out.
