SP could mean literally anything in that context.
It could be as obvious as "stolen people's".
Everyone should already know by now not to use the same user/pass on any forum as they do maple or risk losing both if one is compromised, and considering that vbulletin in particular has had two or three security leaks in the past 90 days allowing any forum running VB to be pillaged and my repeated security warnings to all users ...

Doesn't worry me in the slightest.
For one thing the claim is purely anecdotal, on all counts.
Even if it's been perfectly and absolute honest the whole thing is meaningless if the friend isn't even a regular in SP.

Your SP info wouldn't give them jack squat unless you specifically put info in there that can hurt you and just hoped for the best.
Your risk in doing that would be multiplied by every site you did that at, not just confined to here.
Nexon, SP, SW and pretty much every one with an ounce of sense have repeatedly warned people not to re-use information on fansites that can also get into your accounts because you have no idea who all can see that info or how far it can be spread, whether accidentally, intentionally, or by freak happenstance.
(And for the people who need things spelled out for them, 'info that can get into your accounts' includes email addresses, usernames, passwords, dates of birth and anything relevant to your PIN/PIC)

I just use the random PWs vbulletin generates for me and never log off.

My Nexon pw is so different it's not eve funny. I guess it's just since it's happening you wonder if you're next or is it all just FUD.

Just changed my MS password to something completely different from my old one.
Used the "bunch of words that make sense instead of gibberish that doesn't make sense" technique.
And since my PIC is really really hard to guess (even a guy who I told it too so he could do zak JQ for me couldn't get it, it was fawsome), I'm feeling safer.

Always assume FUD without evidence to the contrary.
Doesn't matter if you can't rationalize a reason for the FUD; FUD doesn't need a reason that you understand to serve someone else's ends. That's the entire "U" portion of it.

You could make your password like my old one.

So it's pretty safe to assume that the person doing this is getting off on this thread. Perhaps it's lived a good life.

If they even know SP exists. You can't leap to conclusions based on circumstantial evidence provided in an anecdote.
That's so flimsy it's ridiculous.

All the people that I knew that have been hacked, were all really old accounts. Most haven't even logged into MS for a couple months. There's no way it's through keyloggers, and I doubt all of them, if any, are through forums.

Mmm, I just logged on today for the first time in a month. Pretty sure I haven't got keylogged and my account existed since 2006. Welp, I got hacked. They were nice enough to leave me my belt, czak helm, and my 24 furies, and 26 mil, haha...
This game sucks.

ok, i'm starting to get paranoid now.

I wonder what they are going to do when they are finally willing to admit they messed up. A mass rollback at this point would simply be absurd, so I seriously doubt that. And I also doubt NEXON has the technology or common sense or time or manpower (seeing as, from all evidence I've seen, their customer service is run by a single 700 year old foreigner) to do rollbacks just for those effected on request. Though, that would be difficult even if they had a competent support team if they were only using their current system, I would think.

Of course rolling back a month is rather absurd.
They have Donald for sending people stuff, exactly for such cases of people getting hacked. However, even if they have a means of reading database backups to tell what exactly you had before you got hacked, it would be a slow, tedious process since we're talking about thousands of accounts.
So yeah, I see two possibilities (and that's assuming they take responsibility):
1) Like the 2009 hackings, they promise they'll fix it all, and tickets still open to this day;
2) They give a fixed compensation of some measly amount of Maple Points and Meso, along with a heartfelt apology.
