As some of you may already know, Mangatraders was hacked and a bunch of usernames, emails, and passwords (apparently in unsalted MD5) was released onto the Internet. Rest assured, it does not appear MangaUpdates has been hacked. However, a significant number of emails in the list from MangaTraders match user accounts on MangaUpdates. If you had an account on MangaTraders, it is advised that you change your account here.

Is it possible to change the user name?

Were users required to add an e-mail address to an account on MT, or was that an optional thing like on Reddit? Same question for this website.

Anyways, luckily I had a different password for mangatraders but... -_____-

I don't know about MT since I don't have an account there, but MU requires an email during registration, and the new account is inaccessible until the email is verified/confirmed.

The issue is I can't remember my password on MT any more, however it seems I didn't use my MT password somewhere else. So I'm save, however where to download manga now... A lot of groups don't give a download option 🙁 and I prefer to read with my picture viewer (except for scroll manwha).

You don't need to fill the email box if you only want to change your password.
Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.
