[PSA] Anyone with a bukkit account - please read

[Dpa1991]

I've been doing a little bit of research to the recent hack we've had, and I'm pretty confident I figured out how saywhat was hacked. Click If you read this article, basically Bukkit got hacked roughly a month ago and decided to keep quiet about this. Unfortunately, Saywhat used the same password there and that's how they gained access to his forum/buycraft account.

So if you use Bukkit forums, and have logged in within the last ~month, please change your password everywhere that uses your Bukkit password.

Basically a site for mods and plugin for you to download and use - So if you have an account there, change your password and everything else just in case it gets hacked and they gain access to anything.

Okay, Thank you for the information Dpa!

This is also how saywhat's account got hacked and how SFT was hacked (they got his passwd from there then got to sft)

This is why I use different passwords for different sites. They are all very alike but for each one they are a little different.

Gaming sites I don't know I use one
Gaming sites I use all the time and trust I use another
Banking information I use a completely different one.

Is payment wall affected? O.o I've never trusted PayPal. XD

The way I do it is I have unique SFT passwords that I use no where else, then SFT related passwords for off-sites like reddit, technic etc. Then I have personal passwords that I use on my own accounts.

Yes, payment wall is affected too although I don't know what information is stored on payment wall purchases as we don't have it on Pix so I don't have any experience with it -- @Towelie might know
