I'm CTO for Manwin Canada and ultimately responsible for YouPorn.
It's unfortunate that people are associating chat.youporn.com to the actual YouPorn.com site, but they are not affiliated at all. It was operated by a completely separate entity, which we've obviously closed as soon as we discovered it. The accounts on chat.youporn.com are different than the accounts on YouPorn. Though as was mentioned, it is probably that some have re-used the same username password combination that is highly unrecommended for all you folks out there (if you read Hacker News, you already know that).
As for password policies, I've been enforcing hashing of passwords ever since joining, though as we inherit a lot of old code and sites we correct issues such as that as we come across them.
I'll be around for a while, if anyone wants to ask questions.
