we need to make it harder to request passwords, we need change!
honestly its a pretty usefull feature but it does need some change. for the lost account feature, i think it should NOT tell you if any accounts are linked to it, just say it sent the email no matter what. Maybe for the manage account idea where it tells people your email, either do what barbie said or have it send a ticket to an active GM (like spy) with the real email. If he deems it to not be a hacker, he can give the email to the player (so people can recover lost accounts).
i got a password retrieval email last night sent to my email, and i know i didnt retrieve my passwords last night so it was obvously someone trying to steal my char... probably matt or rob. just thought id let you know people are still trying to steal accounts
It wasn't me , I can asure you that.. I did get the same mails tho , to both of the mails that i got linked to my accounts.. nothing harmful tho, just accounts that were send.. And till this is fixxed, you can expect people trying to do this (even people who seems to be your friends, as you know ali, as no other )
Meh if this feature was available from when this client started it would never have been a problem. It's prefectly normal to be able to see your email address you used when registering an account, it is however a problem if you share(d) your account.
It's impossible for me to see who's a hacker and who's not, in the case of an active account it's not much of a problem but with older accounts of which I have no info I can't tell.
Lol yeah, for that to work youd have to know everyone irl and have personal contact for that.. Barbies idea is okay I guess, Maybe you could add a password on the site only.. A password that isnt linked to any account information/character passwords.. So people would need that one to access their accounts on the site

How would ppl get this password?
Thats for the GMs to figure out, im just giving ideas... they can either discard them or not.
