Quick Love my posts please!
It could really be anything, although if you're sure that you haven't missed any characters I may not be too inclined to believe it's a hash. It could always be something like unicode -> hex but it doesn't really seem logical as it would be like

Code
U+202c U+b962 U+ac59 U+075b U+964b U+0715 U+02d2

And that makes

Code
‬륢걙ݛ陋ܕ˒

Which doesn't really mean anything in any language. A bit more information would be great to help us determine what it is that we're actually looking at.

I'm not quite sure what you've been smoking / taking, but whatever it is, I want some.

What makes you think it isn't a hash?
Its a 32 character string, which is one form of MD5.
A quick attempt at cracking said hash would reveal the following:

Challenge complete, lol.

I would like you to take your hands off the keyboard for a second and count on your fingers how many characters you see in

OMG THERE IS ONLY 27 CHARACTERS :O.

Honestly don't know what tool you're using to get the value of '123', but you may want to look at getting a new tool. On a totally unrelated note, you can only get the stuff I smoke from specific people.

Haha, it seems I am the one who must be on something.. after I forgot to use the good old fashion method of counting the characters first >__< !
My apologies XD

Still pretty strange my tool would decrypt it as that though.

Maybe this tool will help you to show what kind of hash it is.
@Unloyal: Maybe you should use a new tool :)
