I can't wait until we get item locks that we can buy with mesos. Then I can lock up all my sh'it.

Last time I tried to lock my account using Hotspot a few weeks ago, the game would not even begin to load if Hotspot was active (I would get the same message you see if the servers are down for maintenance), so I'm back to the old method of staying logged in 24/7. I usually have a shop up anyway.
I don't know if Nexon changed something, or just something screwed up with my computer.
I can confirm it worked.
When you try launch the game with HotSpot Shield on, it wont open/load. You need to launch the game without HotSpot Sheild on. Once you're at the login page then you turn it on. When HotSpot turns green and it says its connected you then attempt to log into your account and you will receive the "Trouble logging in?" notice.
Is this what you're doing Mandalay?
I noticed this too recently.
Oh okay. And yep, I've been turning it on only after the log in screen is loaded.
I usually hit Log In ~3 times just for good measure, so it might have just been the "real" Trouble logging in message all three times and not the one induced by HotSpot shield.
Edit: Figured out what's wrong. Lately I've creating my own GameLauncher shortcut (MS folder > right-click Maplestory icon > Create shortcut > Properties > Add "GameLaunching" at the end in the text box) and this was the problem. It will give the Trouble logging in message but it still won't lock it.
It will only lock the account from the default GameLauncher (the one that automatically installs in your folder).

I'm not sure if it's just me, but does hotspot shield still work in locking accounts?
I've been trying for a while now and I haven't been able to lock my account
Edit: So I tried to lock my account today and it worked fine. I guess it was only me :|

Re-confirming that Hotspot Shield works - and from a shorcut GameLauncher too (unlike what Mandalay reported).
Nexon needs to give people an extra password like the one-time password system SE has that would greatly reduce hacking as well.
