A lot of hacking have been happening, and we have been banning anyone who has abused the released passwords and logging into accounts with the same password on this site. We implore you to #1, change your password, #2, have a secure password, #3, if you were hacked recently and your password has been changed, PM me so i can change it for you.

PLEASE! Change your passwords when we ask you too, it saves you and us a lot of time and trouble.

Will the players that have been hacked get their items refunded?

Is a side-wide password reset possible? Force everyone to resets their password.

Now let me get this straight, our account passwords were leaked, or Prjct06 accounts?  I follow strict guidelines never to reuse any password.  Did it slip in my comprehension that you said our account passwords were leaked from Rune Rebels, or Prjct06's?

Oh, I'll need a kick, too.  World 2.  Actually, scratch that, I just experienced a hiccup in the server.

PRS06 got leaked, but... players here have used the same passwords to play on prs06. So hackers can decrypt the passwords leaked from PRS06 and log in here.

I agree.  Especially, since it was told to one that they would.  Keeping one's word is important.

Since my pw is good, and neither my name or pw is the same on any other site, am I good to go?  And no changes are needed?

I don't think its the staff member's position to refund hacked items they they warned you 2-3 times ingame and on forums to change your password. Doubt they will refund, will be suprised if they do.

Should just force everyone to change their passwords imo would help stop some hacks

People that were hacked had the same password here as on ProjectRs06 and 2006scape, that is why you were hacked, but also change your password just to be safe.

I agree, EXCEPT, when you tell someone that you will do something, then you need to hold true to your word.  At least for that person.
