...yeah. If Blaziken marked us for convertion, we'll still have to wait...

I didn't mark it for conversion yet because of the discussion Sanky and I had about converting the boards. I'll post it in this thread to prevent this one from going off-topic.

Here are some possibilities:

- Do you store your passwords on your computer? Maybe somebody went on your computer and looked at your stored passwords and broke into your accounts.
- Is there anybody who poses as an admin here and asks for your password?
- Is there a site that looks like this, but it appears you are logged out?
- Do you have a keylogger on your computer?
- Is there somebody stalking you trying to figure out your passwords?
- Do you know if your cookies are being stolen in some form? (Like visiting strange sites or somebody tricking you into sharing them?)
- Do you reuse the same password over and over? Sometimes, site owners can view people's passwords, allowing them to break in that way.

I think the fact that the hacker only went after you, combined with the fact that your first account was hacked in about a day, along with the fact that your second account and YouTube account got hacked at the same time leads me to believe that it's somebody that knows you, possibly either a stalker or somebody that knows you in real life (or both!).

Well it still would be a good idea to change your password to something completely different to your other two accounts. That is assuming of course that the last two had the same password.

Also, set up your browser so that it automatically cleans out your cookies whenever you close the browser.

Seriously, Puniisuto~, Krypto~, Kyorosuke, there's something wrong.

Sorry guys, I didn't backup any posts. I didn't expect it to happen again, nor this soon. Argh...

I think someone dislikes Krypto...
When you make a new account, you should make a 'next name suggestion' thread.

Oh, great, not again! It has to be someone who hates him.
