Hi guys.

Im here because some extremely wierd things have been happening exclusively on my meatmissile_ account.

Number one:

While playing today, a message popped up on my screen displaying "emergency broadcast", and was definitely part of hawken and not some external program, with a subscript "lets do this" exactly like that. 

I aksed players that were online at the time if the same thing hapened to them, and they said no.

The message disapeared very fast and I wasn't able to get screenshot proof.

Number two: 

Possibly related to number one, a message popped up in my inbox that said nothing but "lets do this".

Screenshot proof: http://steamcommunit...s/?id=473601894

Number three:

My chat feed instantly filled with "ccccccccccccccccccc"

>.<

I cannot for the life of me think why this would happen.

At the time I did not think to screenshot this occurance.

Number four:

Once today and once yesterday, a party invite from nobody appeared in my inbox. All that displays is the title "has invited you to a party", and when I click accept it says the the party may no longer exist.

Screenshot proof: http://steamcommunit...s/?id=473602025

 

I am extremely confused and even worried for my account, so many things could be happening to it.

There used to be an unintentional method of sending players a message that would appear as an "Emergency Broadcast", just as you noted. Some players abused this to play pranks on their friends. I don't remember how it was possible or if it was ever fixed.

I don't know why but it all sounds very creepy. Call an exorcist, the account is lost.

Thank you so much! I know of more than a few people that would like to screw with me.

There was, on the old forum, a topic about the Emergency Broadcast.  I don't remember all of the details, but I do recall learning how to make it happen and how to troll with it (I don't remember any more though).


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke

Maybe it is the soul of an ADH employee from long times past, having been sacrificed to keep the servers running for us humble players, but who now is finally waking up again? Maybe this is why the servers have been so unstable, and not "back-end" stuff? It is the Damned Keeper Of The Servers, waking up once again, searching after someone unlucky and naive enough to be tricked to be sacrificed to the servers so they once again can run smoother.

If I remember correctly that's caused by someone on your friends list messaging you under the correct circumstances. What those circumstances are is lost to time.

This has occurred to me before, but I've seen loads of weird messages pop up. My favorite is something along the lines of "Everything is fine."

Thanks for the reassurance!

Your account is fine - this is a glitch in the chat system (that I thought was fixed awhile ago, but I guess not completely) where a user-created message is mistaken by the client for a server-created emergency broadcast. If this keeps happening though, please submit a support ticket so we can look into it.
