Attempted Account Takeover

Hello all,

Recently, I received emails from Rerolled stating that someone attempted to access my account from another computer. The system was kind enough to give me the IP Address of the origin of the attack. I'm trying to figure out why someone would bother trying to break into someone's account on this site, but as I have nothing on my account that is personally identifiable, I'm drawing a blank, except to possibly make bad posts on my account and attempt to get me banned.

I'm posting this as a warning to my fellow forum junkies, someone out there has no qualms about breaking into accounts. I highly suggest doing what I did and change your password into something very very hard to break.

I banned the range 188.143.234.*. Let me know if this causes any problems.

Thanks Tuco. I was sort of glad I wasn't the only one having this issue, as odd as that sounds.
