This makes you lose your Haven account if you lose your e-mail account.

Its a good point, but these days you are very screwed anyway if you lose your e mail. HnH account is least of your worries in that case.

As far as I can tell, only if they know your password.

So what you're saying is that you got his username and password via external means? Not sure what you'd expect this website to do against that.

Oh noes, big bad hackers are going to break into my account in H&H. Hold me brethren 'cause Ima seriously losin' my shit now.

Come on. In almost 20 years of online gaming experience I've yet to hear about some "kewl hackz0r$" stealing a game account without said account's owner being stupid and/or mischievous. Use your brain. Don't look for shortcuts. You'll be fine.
