some scripting functionality temporary).
Basicly the encrypted passwords were spoofed, so
the hackers can do brute force (trying all possible
passwords, encrypt it and check if it equals).
We do backups of the accounts often so in case
players accounts are hacked by that way we can restore
it, sorry for those problems, it's not happening often,
it's quite impossible to 100% protect a computer system
especially when there is a big group of hackers
trying to hack/crash everying 24/7. The servers and
website are quite secure but with the new website
there were a lot of new things and scripts uploaded.

We don't know anything about the credit card numbers,
only the bank knows them, so we cannot store them
and so we cannot give them out.

Thank you for clarifying. :) Please read the thread in the playerworld forum, some playerworld stuff you should read.

great! eric changed my pass and e-mail for me. i got my account back. but i lost everything on it. my gralat, my npc's and anything else. will i get my stuff back? someone needs to look at the log files for today, the 28th. i had over 7.7k and 30 hats. i didn't get my account upgraded so hackers could steal my parents CC and hours and hours of gameplay could be thrown away.

Um yes I will fix it, your account is one of the 3 accounts that
have actually been changed by the hackers.

Well... whoever hacked the Graal site changed it to where account upgrades only cost $1 so that part of hte site is down for maintenance

They shouldn't be using NukePHP.
