First of all, check your e-mail. There is a known exploit that still hasn't been fixed that will allow users to change your e-mail to theirs and get your password from that. If it's different that would explain how you were hacked. However, if you used the same pass here that you do elsewhere, it could be that another account on another site was hacked, or someone is in your e-mail and getting your passwords sent to them.

Regardless, the only way to change it is to contact Volte6 and hope to god he's on because he and only he can change your password. However, between then and now, you'll have to wait while things get compromised, assuming you were hacked...

See DD likes to log people out anyway, seemingly at random, and it's been happening more lately than not. Your comment might have been one you left ages ago that just now got reported and removed. It happens.

Hope those three points helps to shed some light on what might be going on. By evaluating each of them you should be able to pinpoint the correct issue.

i'm surprised anyone here would want to hack anyone else here, it's such a nice community(no really) and even if someone does get 'butt-hurt' i don't think they'd resort to downright hacking the other person.

But I hope you get it all sorted out Blaze, it's probably just a fluke though.

Except that the whole site was hacked once by a smackjeeves user who went so far as to post screenshots of the admin forum and admin panels.

Doesn't matter what the site is, there will always be people who want to ruin people's stay or crash the site or blah blah blah. :/

You're NOT hacked.
This is exactly what happened.:

The user reported this comment as is his right. It was marked as a "snipe", hence the warning level. Sorry, but that's what tends to happen with those sorts of negative comments when accompanied by that rating; It's assumed the user is being an arsehole.
I've marked your warning down to 0%
