Or he just used many of the public emails available. If he had "hacked" the forums, why would he need the passwords of players on the forums?

Well, passwords are stored as irreversible MD5 hashes (might be another one, but it's morning and I forget the other acronyms for the types of hashes used). If the person "hacked" the passcodes, then they would only get one-way encrypted hashes which can only be broken by brute force hacking.
