Unauthorized CD Key?
« on: February 09, 2010, 10:27:31 PM »
I get this message.  I logged off the server cause of lag and tried to relog and now I get this message every time I try to log on.
Any suggestions?

Must be a gamepsy problem, tried to log on now, and can't.

*sigh* Well, look on the bright side: at least we can be reasonably sure that our CDkeys haven't been hijacked by someone else somehow, like I feared at first.

I went to the gamespy web site looking to make sure someone notified them, this is what I found:

Who supports the Powered by GameSpy IN-game browser?

Your game maker provides the support to any issues within your game including the In-game browser. Yes, we know it says "GameSpy" and we know our Support rocks! But truth be told, we sell the technology to the game maker and what happens after that is up to their support team to help you with.

Please look in your start menu under your game title or in the manual for the link to the support provided by your game's maker.

GameSpy Customer Service cannot look up your login Username or provide any assistance in changing your login or your password inside your game.


So definitely it's Bioware's gates we need to storm with pitchforks and flaming torches, not Gamespy's.

Haha, check this message when browsing their page:

Our Apologies

The BioWare websites; online store; master server; and online authentication are temporarily unavailable. Sorry folks; we're having a few technical difficulties. Those pesky Gnomes are banging away at the giant; steam-producing clockwork computers we keep in the basement guarded by Swikky the dire squirrel. We will be back up as soon as we can.

Yeah, I got the same issue.  Saw the same message off the official site, too,  :lol:

Do believe I'll try what Lotte tried!
