    Since you know about IRC, here are the support channel details:

    irc.p2p-network.net
    #hdbits.support
    Hope you get it sorted.

    wait around a while on the channel, maybe no mods are there and you need to be voiced by one to talk.

    Most likely the case.

    Unless somebody knew your password (highly unlikely unless you used something really insecure), then there is no way they were able to access the account.

    No one would try to brute-force a password (the logs would catch all the attempts) and all the passwords are hashed/encrypted in the DB so no admins would've tampered with it (unless given a serious enough reason to).
