I haven't change my passwords in .. forever (my passwords are all numbers and symbols anyways, have fun with that). But I remember changing the PIN before I quit MS. My characters are all outdated anyways, meh. Truthfully, most hackers on MapleStory is nothing more than ScriptKiddies. These are the typical kiddies I see up in my college's computer lab, using pre-built scripts. Ok, so all you're doing is making use of someone's work. You're not intelligent. You're just copy-pasta'ing. Anyone can do that. I don't really call hackers on MS as 'hackers'. They're more like little kids that has nothing better to do with their time except to steal pre-built sh't and implement it.
Ex: Ecko.
PS: Supposedly, he's back. I was on MS the other day, and it spreaded all over my BL.

I'm no expert on hacking on 'an MMO'. But hacking on other things such as a router's ID + password requires brute-forcing. A concept that means you're just manuallly pushing through the defenses, or using a software to do so. Brute-forcing through anything takes a while. Hacking in an MMO means you have to be able to have access to the game's database. Because there has to be a 'hole' or a start to be able to dive in. No genius can just make a gap out of nowhere and randomly hack. Hacking doesn't even work like that.

Then there's this:

Truthfully, even a unskilled person that has no knowledge of 'hacking' can get anybody's information. Want to know how? Social Engineering.
