    Hmm....I never received a PW reset e-mail and just sent an e-mail concerning it. Interestingly enough I just logged on to the forums here with my old PW.
    I was on the site at the time it shut down. I was going through the process of reinstalling the game on my new rig and the site went down as I went to DL the launchpad installer.

    Whether or not the report was done soon after the incident or not is irrelevant. Whether or not you got an e-mail is irrelevant.

    Here's what IS relevant:

    There was a potential breach of security. That said, your password might be compromised. Regardless of whether or not it actually happened, the alert has been given. Now get off your duffs and change your password, if only to be on the safe side.

    Of all the rotten bull****! To hack an open source free project made by the players, for the players?
    Really? AND if I hear anyone say the word anonomys did this, I'll be quite upset, because those guys arent supposed to stand for this sort of kiddie bull****!
    How does it feel, to have damaged a FREE AND OPEN SOURCE COMMUNITY PROJECT? Does it make you feel like a big billy bad-***?
    What did you get out of it? Nothing, thats what you got.
    This is what is wrong with the world, people that are just mad at it, need to target their anger better. Go hack the CIA or something you dumbasses, really?...

    I am glad to see that it was contained. I also agree with cegati. Change your password and be aware of email's. Not like its the end of the world. We survived and will continue on. Not to mention at least it was caught that someone attacked and now we have better security. Hell maybe next time we'll find out who the bastard(s) is/are and give him something hell never forget.

    hi all,

    just a quick question: i recieved 5 emails from "daemon" - 1 at 23:22 (my time) telling me a password "A" - and at 23:58 i recieved 4 emails telling me password "B" (A and B stand for the generated password you send me - and password B is working)

    im just curious and would like to know if this happened to anyone else and it should be like that.

    regards,
    richard

    Why is it that this project is continually plagued by unprofessionalism?

    Explain to me please why a site-wide email wasn't sent out immediately upon discovery like every other major community would do?
    We notified everyone on Facebook, Twitter and Google+, Acebalde spammed Nova with system messages, MOTD was changed in our main IRC #swgemu and several other channels.

    We couldn't send an email notification to everyone, because the server that holds that data was the server that was attacked and it was taken down for security reasons.

    It means that you dont have an email client installed, download and install Thunderbird or something like that.

    Yeah, i got 5 emails with 2 different passwords. There were two attempts to reset passwords, first timed out so we had to start another one after that timeout was disabled.
