Synthfreak posted a thread in forum business about a week ago. I don't remember exactly but basically it was that he got an alert from Chrome about a security breech and asked what's up with that. I don't recall if there was any answer about what's up with that. It will be interesting to see when the forum comes back.

Posted on Hoffman's Twitter account: Good morning. My site stevehoffman.tv was NOT hacked. One of our moderators’ accounts was. I sent NO email out. So just sit tight. Our chief Gort is working on it.

Without seeing the message, it's hard to tell. I know Chrome can tell if your email/username and password combo have been compromised. I'm not sure if says how they've been compromised, so unless you have a unique set for every website, it's hard to tell. I'd check the board myself with chrome but... well too late for that I guess.

Our chief Gort is working on it. If a moderators' account was hacked, and the hacker was able to access STeVE's account (assuming he's not "one our moderators") from that, well, that means that the forum was hacked.

Did the hacker get into the mainframe? And past the firewall?

Yeah, Steve’s really throwing the Gorts under the bus there, unless he himself really did send out those nonsensical messages to members (admittedly not out of the realm of possibility).

If STEVE's account was accessed, were his 1,893 sock puppet aliases breached as well?

You can notice that it's a "moderator", not a Gort. STeVE has moderator's privileges, like all the Gorts, and I'd say that he may not be the most tech savvy person in the world (or compared to most Gorts), so his account may have been the one and only actually hacked. If I was skilled (and amoral) enough to deliberately gain access to a Gort's account, then to STeVE's, and reached sections like the "Gorts reel" that Pug had mentioned a couple of times, I would take advantage of it to leak a few things, not just post a lame message.
