Don't worry I hear they are making plans to replace phpbb with a more secure forum such as vanilla and moving to a more secure hashing algorithm. Since we didn't store plaintext passwords we can't easily update everyones hashes to a new algorithm but we are investigating our options.

It doesn't take over a year to do that. BMG still will not secure their user information and Trial judges wont ban accounts reported as breached.
Did I really need the /s colby?

From a bystander's point of view, with what I'm given and can see, it just looks like the password was never changed.
I've inquired about this and asked for a Developer to at least make a comment on this thread, but again, this is just from what I can see. Dunno when they'll comment, if they do, but hopefully they can shed some sort of light on this, in additon to the email you sent in Rex.
Cheers.

That either means:
A) You didn't follow through on the link in your screenshot;
B) There was a technical issue that either prevented your password from actually changing; or,
C) There was a technical issue that prevented the password change from being registered in their back-end.

I have a pretty good idea of what I changed my password from and what I changed it to. Insinuating I did not change my password, as Katiya did in trials chat at least six times today, is not funny. Blend even confirmed he told me to change my password in June.

TIL I don't belong on a public forum or in a public discord.
Private messages exist my man. Don't want attention? Use them.
Naru2008 wrote:My intent wasn't to downplay or make anyone look like a liar, or make them out to be one, nor was I intending on insinuating anything. I was making a statement based off the facts that I can see. I can see your Board Warning from Turdpile on December 23rd. There's no other logs (including password changes) on your account. Now yes Mod Logs were cleared in January by the few accounts who gained Admin privileges, but if you changed it in June, it would have been logged, as we weren't having log issues around that time (that I recall). I also don't see the one for today, to put that out there. Did you just use the first part to generate the random one, or did you also change it to your own personal one? I know that BMG had to fix an issue with the random passwords generated causing issues for login, etc. They fixed it shortly after.
If you say you changed your password, I believe you. However what I can see says you haven't, and I simply wanted to convey that.
None of this condones the handling of this issue of a year now, however, and this should have been settled when it first occurred.

In Rex's defense, numerous people's password change wasn't being recorded (similar appeals).

There’s absolutely no need for you to keep insinuating I forgot to change my password. I spent yesterday with my girlfriend. I did this in passing. Just shut the fuck up already and mind your own business.
