Ars Technica has an unconfirmed report that ArenaNet has been experiencing attempts at unauthorized access to
Guild Wars 2 accounts. These differ from the typical such attacks as they are reportedly the result of a breach at an unnamed Guild Wars fan-site, and that the perpetrators are now trying the username and password combinations from the site to take advantage of users who also use them for their game account. They include the obvious warning that this is not a good idea.

It would be exactly the same problem. You could have a super long password with the most complex mix of symbols possible, but it still means fuck all if you use the same username and password on an insecure fansite. |
