What happens is that a regular user starts vandalizing and says their account has been taken over by someone else. But what's going on is not actually hacking. This happens in three basic ways:

1. You tell someone your password 2. You use a password that is too simple, and someone guesses it 3. You, the owner of the account, vandalizes and just claims to be "hacked".

I suspect that the first two have happened here. I know that the third one has.

I've looked carefully at the data, and know that TheChromePerson and KingKool720 have both pretended to be hacked when it was actually them vandalizing.

The only reason they aren't globally banned is that I don't know for sure that I would be banning everyone who has played this trick.

This is the second time recently that Wikia staff have had to come in to this wikia because of games and drama. You can be better than this. Alright.
