Unless there was a flaw in FF2 or Os X, my account at MMORPG.com has been hacked.
Here is a copy I sent to the staff:

Greetings.

I've been quite surprised for not being able to connect to your site today. I had a new post to had in the forum section of Darkwind: war on wheels.
The first forum thread is meant to have been posted by me as surfing.stef, but when you click on the link, the user supposed to post the text is diggn4gold.
Text is exactly one I posted, but is no longer declared as mine on your server.

I don't mention my email address is no longer registered on your server and my account has certainly been hacked..

That's strange alright. Did the hacker post anything anywhere else pretending to be you?

No, this is the only post hacked. User account of this "person" even shows she never posted. :p

Might be some unhappy Darkwind user.

ello,

We were not hacked, we suffered a major database loss Friday resulting from a SCSI RAID controller failure.  We were forced to restore from a backup point that was 6 days old.

All user registrations, contest entries, forum posts, etc - were all lost.  If you created an account during this time you will need to re-register, if you entered a contest, you will need to do this again as well.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience.

And the database was wrong of course. My id was passed to someone else...
