Why must we change our password?

[darkchicken101]

Thank you. That wasn't too hard was it. I suggest someone make an announcement in the announcements forum telling everyone what you just told me. Otherwise you might get more of these threads.

It may not be legit in whati have said. but it has been said it could of happened. their is no proof no evidance on this to happen. It would be hard. as they would of had of download that DB Table. and then upload it on another forum.

No one knows nor have proof.

k.

Can we have admin come and clear this up for us?

We had some security problems (we aren't sure what happened) but it seems someone managed to access our accounts, we aren't exactly sure what they had access to, or how they gained access.

The reason we ask you all to change your passwords is because 1) You should be changing them anyway, 2) We don't know what the person had access to, so it's as a safety precaution as if your accounts was accessed which resulted in you banned I don't think you'd be right happy :p.

The reason most admins have been removed is due to the fact we aren't sure what security problems we have, therefore only the admins who rely on administrative features to do their job have kept administrator status, theres no point risking anything if we dont have to.

Hope that's cleared a few things up, we aren't hiding anything from anyone just we aren't exactly sure ourselves yet.
