This just highlights the importance of not reusing the same password across applications :)

I DIDN'T though. The password on my Twitter was half of the password here plus some extra characters at the start and end.
Like if I used ChUrumuStUhu6ut SP was using that and Twitter was using jblazeStUhu6ut2001 for example. Both different but still slightly similar.

Ha ha if you want this jerks IP I can send it on but I think it was spoofed.

This is pretty serious news, thanks for the heads up. I already went and changed a lot of my passwords just in case.
Though, why was Jade Elizabeth a High-Level user in the first place?
♦ Ninja ZX-10RR ♦:
She wasn't, that is another hack happened on another site that compromised *exclusively* her account. This side hack (merely a coincidence) has nothing to deal with SimplePortal accounts other than hers ;)
As a reference, the site that was hacked and caused Jade's account to be compromised (although nobody other than her actually managed to log in), was this: http://www.twitt3d.com/ (and it's still hacked as of now).

... that would mean her account here is a high level user?
