    Hey guys, Bro here! (Actual Bro, not some other dude with my account)

    Im terribly sorry to hear that my account was hacked tonight around 4/5am, im very sick at the moment and was asleep when it happened. I feel very bad about what happened because i feel like it was my responsibility to keep it from happening, but i couldn't do anything about it, but if i were awake at the time, i would do anything in my power to stop it from happening.

    Remember to change your password sometimes. I haven't changed my password since i made the account, back when Minecraft was a new thing. But i have changed it now. My account will remain banned until were 100% sure its resolved.

    And thanks to all the wonderful staff team who handled the situation very good.

    Im very sorry for the inconvenience.


    ~Bro

    Its not your fault man. Don't tear yourself up about it. There are some bad people in this world who do bad things, and you were just as much a victim of them as anyone else. Just because they used your account doesn't mean its your fault. They could of broken into Timo's, Phil's, Miner's and done just as much damage. We are all sad that what happened did. But don't feel to responsible because in the end we got it sorted. I also feel like this event made me respect the staff team even more, and I am not talking about myself.

    It honestly isn't your fault, Bro. Even if you did change your account password daily, there'd be no guarantee that you would not be hacked. Glad to have the Broski back :)

    Yeah I looked into it and found out it is different than the /login plugin. The /login one you could get into the password easily.
