vBulletin password hack

I read that vBulletin suffered a password breach that they reported on 11/2/2015. I see they're owned by Internet Brands, which also owns MBWorld. So are users of this forum at risk for the breach? Should we change our password?

Hi,

I'll check but I have not received any alerts from Internet Brands. IB's network has over 100+ plus websites, each with unique log in credentials. It's never a bad idea to change passwords but again, I'm not aware of any network wide hack which could affect MBworld.org data. Thanks!

Update...

VBbulletin.com was hacked, however, MBworld.org is not affected as we are on a different VB version.
