    We have recently had a data breach that was made possible by the stolen login credentials of an admin and resulted in theft of e-mail addresses and password hashes and as a safety precaution we are advising our members to change their passwords.

    This is for your own safety and we can stress enough how important it is to have a strong password and not use the same passwords for different sites.

    Remembering passwords is a pain, however if you use software like LastPass for example it will generate strong passwords for you and automatically log you in to websites you visit.

    You can download LastPass here

    We apologize for any inconvenience that may be caused to you.
