As some of you know, i've been hacked today. It was a virus that somehow was able to access my JKA game directly, forcing me to say things I don't normally say, assuming it was a internet troll. If you don't believe me, that's fine. Anyway, for those that might take consideration for this, I apologize for the mishap.

lol, your pc doesnt have a virus, chat hacks are well known, dont worry about the the issue, im sure the hack was very noticable by any admin that was on at the time.as hacked chat is not aligned with the normal chat and covers it.

the attacker does not need any access to your pc to do this.

Its a simple injection of a carriage return in the chat, followed by the victims name (with colors) and the chat after. The perpetrator will always be the person before the "fake chat". I got banned on JP for doing this, something like: -
-[KR]-Jawfin: Hi
<Clan>-[KR]-Jawfin: Can I play too?
which in reality was no more than me saying: -
"Hi\n<Clan>-[KR]-Jawfin: Can I play too?"
where the \n was an injected carriage return.
They didn't think it that funny.

Oh really? \n shifts the thingy down? Funny, scripting in Pokémon games uses the same thing for when the text scrolls down. "Who wouldah thought that" - Conker the Squirrel

\n does not shift things down unless you've reverse engineered your game to convert that string into a carriage return. For instance, my game will convert the % character to a CR as you can't type % anyway - and it does it while you are typing (like, it changes before your eyes). So only people who have done this change, or for the script kiddies who had someone else do it for them, will this occur.

I never knew chat hacks exist. That's really terrible. Hope you get it fixed.

And by fixed I assume you mean "pretend to be Jato and pm everyone how much he smells" - in which case, yes. fixed!

Mind you, if this became a serious problem, I can change the code on the server to deal with it.

How did he catch that in the first place? By playing JKA?
