NEVER use the same combination of userid and password in the game, as you use on these or other forums you may use.
The phpBB forums run by the Whilte Wolf MMO has been hacked and apparently that enabled the hackers to get on peoples accounts. This I know for fact happend to one of the larger EQ1 Guilds on Antonius Bayle, a couple of years back as well.
While I make sure keep the board software up to date, the battle between hackers and developers is an ongoing one.
