I mean if it was only done to two wikis, why is all of Wikia being put on alert that we're in danger of being hacked, and that all customized coding is now not safe for use? I'm basically asking how bad is it that I should have to change my password when my primary wikis weren't even hacked? It sounds to me like a few places in particular were the target, but there might not have been anything limiting them to those communities--it's not like Wikia stores user information separately per wiki. So maybe the hacker/troll was focused on a few communities, but there's a non-0% chance they could've found their way into any other random member's account, too.
