ALL DRAGON THUNDER USERS: PLEASE READ!

http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic … 8#p1262718

Long story short, DragonThunder's server was hacked, and passwords may have been exposed, so change your password on other sites if you used the same (or similar) password.

I'm sorry to hear that, bobbybee. Normally I wouldn't capitalise a topic title, but I agree that this is an important matter. In future can I suggest that you SHA or MD5 all passwords?

Thanks. I'm rewriting the secure parts for salted SHA512.

Re: ALL DRAGON THUNDER USERS: PLEASE READ!

Yeah. I figured that I'd make the announcement as soon as enough things were patched to be safe, but not so much patched that the website (and game) will be down for a week (and that's probably how long it'll take to fix everything)
