Please Read: Hack attempts against our websites and forums

Over the past weekend, a hacker group attempted an unlawful intrusion of our websites to gain access to data. We believe we have taken appropriate action to protect our data against these attacks. While no personal financial information or credit card data was obtained, the hackers may have gained access to some user names, email addresses, and/or passwords. As a precaution, we recommend that all our fans immediately change passwords on all our sites — including our community forumsstatistics site for Brink, and here on the blog.

If your username/email address/password is similar to what you use on other sites, we recommend changing the password at those sites as well. As we don’t know what further plans the hackers may have, we suggest that you keep an eye out for suspicious emails and account activity.

We regret any inconvenience that these attacks on us cause for you. These attacks will be evaluated to determine if there are any additional protections we might take that would be prudent.

I guess it's time to go back into my cave and not interact with anyone anymore.

Or it's time for hackers to get actual lives and learn to talk to girls. [Image Can Not Be Found]

I forget who said this but these companies being hacked should hire the hackers into their security teams. Doesn't that make sense.

And this, just cause.[Image Can Not Be Found]
