Default Server Compromised

Just wanted to let everyone know that the server was compromised last Friday whenever it went down (was actually caused by the attack). I just found out today that they installed a back door on the system and had almost total access to the server. Who would do such a thing you might ask? No, it wasnt LV, it was drplump. I recommend that ALL users change their passwords IMMEDIATELY. He (and who knows who else) had complete access to the databases over the last few days. Therefore, until a page is made to change your login database passwd (hopefully less than a couple of days), all login servers will be down. This really sucks, I know but its better than someone deleting all your characters on a server you like. I will try my best to have it done as soon as possible. For now, change all your passwords!
