There is no working hack for Supermechs. However there are a lot people who try to scam and try finding out your password ("give me your password and I'll send you a cheat to gain tokens. This works 100%!!!)

And nope, this won't work but you'll end up without an account and without tokens.

I guess, this has happened to your friend as well.
And as much I dislike it, its up to you to secure your account as much as possible.

In order for a ban to occur, there must be proof first that he was the one who did this. Otherwise, there is a chance the admins would be banning a player for no reason.

Sometimes people give their passwords out and get duped. Othertimes, another player is able to figure it out on their own (maybe because they know the person well enough to guess their passwords). But you should never give anyone your password and you should make sure yours is not easily figured out. Perhaps your friend was using a very standard password, such as 'abc123' or even 'password1'.

Either way though, everyone should be cautious and make sure to secure their accounts. Never trust anyone to enter into your accounts. Anyone who can legitimately help you can send whatever you need by other means.

nah, you aren't making it worse at all.

On Battledawn its way more easy for us admins to find out what happened and what caused it. On Supermechs with more than 20000 active players daily (browser based), and nicknames + usernames its just more difficult. I often sneak into the chat and see messages about "free cheats" "100% hack" "cheat engine that works" and so on.
The most funny thing that I ever saw was a guy who tried to get MY account. Even after banning him, he still used a multi to try it ("I can give you 10000 red tokens!)

:lol:

So yeah, I am sorry, but there isn't much we can do.

The official rule can be found in the spoiler

Spoiler:
2.1.3 Accurate and Secret Information: You shall provide Tacticsoft only with accurate information about yourself and shall keep Your User Account information, including password and other login information in utmost secrecy and shall be liable to any damage, direct or indirect arising from the misuse of Your User Account. Should You find that any personal information regarding Your User Account has been violated or disclosed, You shall immediately and without any delay (1) notify Tacticsoft of any unauthorized use of Your password and User Account; and (2) make intentional efforts to ensure that no other party misuses Your User Account thereafter.
