Not wanting to start a panic...
#10
Krysti Wrote:FYI, this is very likely the result of REDUNDANCY. Basically most people have a tendency to use the same user/pass combination on multiple sites, message boards and the like... so it only takes just ONE of those sites to become compromised (or setup as a honey pot) and then the script kiddies can basically get into EVERYTHING. So make sure you're using a DIFFERENT username and password for every site, or at least different classes, like the same combination for message boards, but then a different combination for actual games.

You do realize over the course of the last 5 years there's been almost 4 separate incidents of mass hackings that the player had no control over, right? Hell the database leak has happened at least twice. I think people went all paranoid after the first one in like, 2010-2011. I mean, that's what you get with shi`tty security.
