    Someon has been attempting to log into my account all day.

    Luckily, I only get booted from the server thanks to the authentication error.
    However, this has happened twenty times today and it makes playing impossible, and I'm obviously more than a little nervous.

    Any solution to this?

    Nobody's trying to log into your account. It's some kind of server error.

    Not sure what the exact error is, but I would try to get the one-time password app or the keychain thing. Makes it much more difficult for users to try and get into your account.

    sadly, with this game, it does jackall. It can be bypassed.

    I was getting the same error, with a little less frequency. I am using the security token and I even changed my password. I already submitted a ticket to see what was happening.

    Hackers are using randomized session IDs to connect with the servers! Oh noes!


    I also got authentication error twice since last night. Either they changed something or the hackers really are doing mass brute force...
