Hi there, xx-RaNdOm_RiSk-xx! I'm Ebony the Peacian, the Vice Captain of the Newbie Supporting and Training Guild. I just wanted to let you know, first of all, that anyone who threatens to hack you or who attempts to blackmail you in order to receive gold is not your friend. By threatening you, they are violating the Gaian Terms of Service. You need to report and/or add this person to your Ignored List so that they can no longer harass you and so that a Gaia Online administrator can deal with the situation effectively. Do not give this person your password, and you're supposed to give gold to others out of kindness - not because you're afraid of getting hacked.
