Fair enough, there wasn't anything specifically about it in the announcement. When we go hacked, someone hacked an account, different caps passwords makes the passwords harder to hack quite exponentially.

Anyways, we reverted to a backup that was made in the morning. And put in some password complexity, and made everyone change there password. Remember, make unique passwords.
