you should NEVER use the password for your email on torrent sites, that is just plain stupid. I have several different and strong passwords for my main email,paypal etc etc
You shouldn't have put it in the first place
You can always list the nicks of those who asked you for that file, most of them are probably account stealer wannabees
(seriously you could do that)
I think he just reacted on the "because of their stupidity"

Yes, I just reacted to "because of their stupidity" and I'm not j0hn13 = mforcex. My username and password was on that list, but I don't care. I use unique password for every site and not like somebody I do not complain. Shit happens. Also I've seen people who complained that they lost their accounts or ratio because of this. But they joined the site after the leak.
i question the comprehensiveness of the list. i joined before the leak, however my acc name wasn't on the list

The "issue" was resolved several months ago, the list is several months old. If people aren't in the list, it's probably because they joined less than 2-3 months ago.
According to the site staff, it's not known whether the code to log the passwords was put there by an ex-staff member or by a hacker. Either way, it was added nearly a year ago.
And for all of yous wondering/complaining why the site doesn't use the standard MD5 hashes in TBSource or store passwords as hashes, it does. This list was generated by malicious code logging everything entered on the login page.
Should I delete my BitHDTV account?
No, I joined less than a month ago and I am on the list. The list was still being added to up until july 27th. The list was formed basically by snooping EVERYTIME someone logged in, and writing their login info to a txt file before it was encrypted. There are several logins from the same people on the list which is evidence of this. Also, the list needs to be made REAL public, so that people know to change their shit.
