If your friend thinks his account was compromised, tell him to email support[AT]spacetimestudions.com
They can look into his accounts login history, devices using his account, etc. This sort of thing can be guarded against by using a strong (random strings are great) password, and not making your email address public.

The option to lock your login to a specific device I'd would be helpful, with security questions and email authentication when you want to authorize another device.

Quick password would also help. The option for a short pin number or android style swipe box.
That way you can have a big strong password blocking out brute force password guessers, and you also have a quick login password (for when you have the login saved on your device) to stop friends and family from getting in and getting you banned.
Fail 2 attempts at the quick password and the login requires full password again.

Is there currently any brute force protection? Ie. 3 failed login attempts and it locks out for an hour?

Hopefully your friend, Deathbeakarro, emailed support with his issue. I find it odd that he has a friend post rather than posting himself.

I call bogus on this one.
