Recalled 

When an original owner of an MMORPG account has sold his/her account to a buyer. After a certain time has passed where usually a PayPal transaction cannot be reserved the original owner decides to call the company to gain access back to his account, because it was 'hacked' while the original owner has the original information needed the buyer does not.

Also note in most cases the name where the account is registered on will always remain the same even when the buyer buys it from the original owner.
Matt: It's been 5 months now since I sold my World of Warcraft account...

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus
