It could be viewed that way, but I was talking more like random brute force attacks. For example, if my domain was hostingbusiness.com, the default username would be "hostingb" so that would make it easier to hack into an account being that they already know the username of the account. By keeping it disconnected from the domain, it just abstracts it a little. I'm not terribly worried about it, but it was already set and I had it memorized after about a week..
