Edit: Seems to have been a bug between the myaccount website and the game, it seems fixed now.
Scared me there
Well, I'd already changed it, but it didn't go through.
It was some kind of weird disconnect between the site and the game. It apparently took 20~ minutes to go through and then locked me out of the old password, ha.
I overreacted is all, as much from kneejerk reaction to unclear layout on the the support side of the matter.
After about two decades in IT, I can say statements like this are almost never correct.So, Hacked, and it's Turbine's fault :P
Except where an entire DB is stolen, I've never seen or heard of a hack that wasn't related to an ID10T error.

And you felt the need to make the comment just for the heck of it, eh?
Not saying I don't get the sentiment, having worked in the field, and similar, but with the topic out of the water, not really a meaningful element to it.
And no, it actually was, in the sense I was relating it to: It took over 30 minutes for a GM to send me a response, and the tools on the site weren't clear enough on the subject to sort it out easily otherwise.
After which time the account got locked out for a while, making me believe it'd been fully hacked over.
So yes, I was being accurate, to the matter I was discussing.
That's the last thing that need be said on that matter, mm?
Possibly related to the bug where it was logging people out for being on multiple servers, when they were only on one.
