Re: Is Kaj real?

There was a user named Kaj, but he never actually hacked anybody. Any other accounts you see with Kaj in it is most likely a troll trying to scare people just because they have Kaj in their name.

Re: Is Kaj real?

It was just a poser
If anyone tells you that they'll hack you just laugh at them and report it to the st

^Yep, this is pretty much it.

@knuckles2001: There was a user named Kaj, but the whole story behind it got really blown out of proportion to the point that Kaj is more like a bogeyman story.

There hasn't really been a case of hacking, just cases of accounts being compromised due to weak passwords. So just make sure you keep your password strong and safe, and just report the incident to the Scratch Team like what the others suggested.  smile

If you're concerned about the strength of your password, try reading this guide to see what you can do.  smile

I like to compare Kaj to Springheeled Jack or the Abominable Snowman. You're like "Omg the Yeti will eat me..." and someone's like,"Everyone's so scared of the Yeti, let's dress up in a Yeti costume and scare people!" and they show up in a Yeti costume and you're like "Ahh!" and you run back home where your mother tells you that the Yeti isn't real.

Well, the Yeti is real. It involves a goat/polar bear crossbreed that escaped my lab and-but let's not derail. The point is Kaj isn't real, but people who dress up like Kaj to scare you are. Just ask the ST and in a swing of a banhammer(literally), your problems are gone.

The only way would be a total new IP change and a new account aswell.

But he probably couldn't do that.

Re: Is Kaj real?

Uh.... reset your router, and in 5 minutes, you would have a new IP if your provider gave you a dynamic one. It's not trouble at all.

No. Kaj isn't real. People are just pretending to be him so you will become a scaredy-cat  tongue
