Okay just a question but how exactly have you changed the font? O.O And it was most likely a hacking attempt regarding a trade packet being sent for a reason only known to the hacker

If you're suspecting CC hack, don't move to MTS, CS, or log off (and obviously don't CC). The way that hack worked was, when you're doing any of those things, it's like you're "in between" channels for a split second. They send a packet that your computer was supposed to send, and it gets to the servers before yours. The server thinks they are you, and lets them CC on your character, which causes an error with your client which DCs you. I think it's possible for them to send that packet if you log off rather than CC, as long as it gets to the servers before your packet telling it to log off your character. I'm not sure if the hack is still around, but if you're being careful, I think there are better ways to do it. And better people to ask for how. Because I'm not sure.

Decoded... It says "The Guy : Meet me at channel 12 FM Him : Why The Guy : I wanna sell you something Him : Sell me here The Guy : no Him : Sell me then (then something I don't know what it is) The Guy : I have to trade request you"
