Did I get hacked?

So I just logged in today and I saw that my status message had reverted to a really old one that I put a while ago. I thought it was just a glitch with the client, as that sometimes happens, when the status message gets reset or something. But when I went into a game, I saw that some of my settings were really weird. A bunch were reset to default, such as the HUD size, but the emote wheel was weirdly changed to T, which already has another function attached to it. Now, I also had this, but on the C button. Did I get hacked or is it just some weird glitch in the system? My match history doesn't have anything weird either.

Edit: I didn't get any email saying that my account got accessed from some other computer.

The same thing happened to me today with an old old status message reappearing, which makes me think (and hope) it's a Riot issue?

I've had my settings reset before, so that's not unusual. Sometimes the client just forgets them.

If you're concerned I'd reset your password, its a good security measure to do that periodically anyway.
