He's also ninja-editing posts, or posting as other users with their username/passwords:

Yes, there will be some of those, but again the ninja-hacker should be able to do this again. Knock on wood.

so then it is safe (smart) to assume the hackers have three things of each member:
1) username
2) password for T4R
3) email address
What they can do depends on how smart you are with your passwords. If you used the same password anywhere else then change it now.
I also think the admin is being a bit vague. I understand the reluctance to talk about this in detail but everyone should assume the 3 things above have been compromised.
LASTLY, while it is true the hackers redirected the site to some youtube video, dont assume it was annonymous (mysterious global group with no members list).
The redirect was probably a cover to mask extraction of the user database. That is how these events usually go do.
A) Distract
B) steal database
3) exploit by selling on darkweb (or whatever it is called now)

No, they will not have the passwords. Passwords are encrypted with a salt. That means that even if they figure out how to decrypt one password (i.e. find the key with which it was encrypted), that won't help them decrypt other's passwords.
username and emails - yes, possibly, but again, they sent out the spam through the site's admin console directly, not by sending one themselves, hence the "from" was us.
As I said before, admin console is now well protected.

Nice!
That is just what I wanted to hear.
I am not a security engineer but a friend of mine is and works for the government.
After Sony was hacked he explained to me how salting & hashing work, plus why it is important.

LoL.
Good I used a totally unique user name and pass word for this site.
Admin's post a few days ago... "the admin console is well protected now" does not seem to be the case.
Btw, I'm not a hater
please leave the user threads intact. This is a well liked site.

I decided not to post updates on what I've found and what I've done to further protect the site. Rest assured that I'm on top of things. Yes, some of them will be unsuccessful, but it's mostly a cat and mouse game. I am also working with admins from other sites.
If you have any specific questions or concerns, email me and I'll respond promptly.
