    ---What is the basis of this claim? Yesterday I was lagging while trying to log in and then was getting a "you have been logged in from another location" (or whatever), causing me to go change my password JIC someone hacked the server. I logged in, logged in, logged in and logged in until I didn't get kicked, then went and changed my password.

    ---I don't click on links, sign in from anywhere other that my initial sign-in location or anything else that would be considered compromising. Just wondering why you say it is a link a person has to click on?

    -KK,

    ---Nuff for me, just consider what I had said about my difficulties signing in and if I were smart enough to take down the time it happened, you could verify it with any server updates/technicalities, but it was yesterday around this time.

    This has nothing to do with the game, it is just the forums. Someone has compromised the forums.

    If you come to a fork in the road, take it!

    Almost the same thing happened to me. I got a message to sign in after a serious lag, although I was already signed in. I did not click on any links either. I too will change my password to be safe. Thank you for the heads-up!

    Well a lot of people probably use the same email and PW on the forums as they do in the game.
    I don't use the same PW on related sites for security reasons, but it's quite common to use the same PW over and over again.
    So it does have a little bit to do with the game for probably a moajority of the users.

    Yes, I know this...
    Also, I have Contacted both the Microsoft Smartscreen team and google safe browsing team, hopefully *****.com and bbs.*****.com will soon be added into their phishing sites databases so users of The google toolbar, google chrome, and internet explorer will be warned before going to that site.
