    GameReplays.org hacked

    Maybe you know, maybe you don't but they got hacked by a this guy. Apparently they have no idea how it happened. But it seems they stored the hashes, and everything on the same place, like some site worded it:

    Just a heads up if you have an account on the site change your password because it took me two minutes tops on Google to find over 10.000 emails, password hashes and salts. While to the amateur like myself that gives no meaningful info it's very possible for someone that knows what he's doing to get the passwords.

    Here are links to GR's articles about it.

    The second one is self-explanatory but it would be irresponsible not to do it...

    The rest is expendable.
    And Borreh for being featured in a spammer's valuable member's signature.

    Best way to go about changing it right now?
    Secondly, what a douche.

    Changing it now means your new password is still completely vulnerable. Which means changing it on other sites, yes, but right now on GR... they should at least do a hotfix first to store a new salt value somewhere else.

    Maybe he shouldn't have been so obvious with his name.

    Anyways, I've forgotten about this, and haven't changed my password yet, is it safe to change my password now?
