We would like to remind everyone the importance of Account Security. Several players have had their accounts compromised and have lost items/MP/AU/pets because of their easy-to-guess passwords. We have forced ALL players to re-verify their accounts and change their password to something more secure. You should NEVER share your password with anyone or use the same username and password on other sites. You should also make sure that your account always has a valid email address. Please read this Google Guide to a Strong Password and update your Marapets password if it is not secure. Staff will not be able to help you in the future if you account is compromised because you have a simple, weak password.

For a limited time only, the retired Cancer Treasure Chest is back on sale at the Account Upgrades Shop. It will all automatically retire July 30th.

@Ian it's not our problem if you could or couldn't see our passwords.

The whole thing is your site is over a decade old, and passwords like mara123 COULD still be made. Most people don't login everyday. A lot of people have a pc and will stay logged in for long periods of time without having to type in their passwords. You definitely could've made every active player create a more secure password long before this.

You're comparing mara to a bank account. My bank account wants upper and lower letters, numbers, symbols, a security question, an image and there's even a sound to go with my account. My gmail requires me to have a backup email, phone number, no password like mara123, and security question.
They have for quite a few years. You cannot blame a 10yr old for having a poor password if YOU never updated your security. You absoluetly know you have young players and some of them don't know better without help. Stop trying to play a victim. You're not. This was 10000% preventable.

Staff & yourself have behaved extremely unprofessional in this situation towards children and paying customers. I don't care how much work it made for you at all. It would've been a lot easier had you updated account and password security with the rest of the internet. I don't even wanna spend money on this site since it's too much work and too unfair to staff for them to fix accounts.

With that being said, what else on your site is out of date? I'd really like to know before I continue paying you. I work REALLY hard for my money. It's really hard when the grown up staff is belittling someone's home life and arguing with people they call "family" in their "second home."

It IS your responsibility because we are the ones that PAY you. (I know your staff is unpaid- kudos to them for all that they do, especially with these compromised accounts.)
It may be their fault for having a weak password, but it’s not the fault of ANY player that you did not implement more security until AFTER these things happened. This could have been avoided by requiring a strong password update a long time ago! Security questions, etc!
It’s easy to say that they should know better, but not everybody does. Hopefully lessons learned for them, and everyone in this situation. The blame placing is really disappointing and unprofessional.
