Suggestion for Account Security

[Ritaku]

I read in another thread, that's currently closed for being in the wrong forum, that when an account is logged in from multiple IP addresses, that it currently flags it for suspicious activity and prompts the account holder for a password reset. This is very inconvenient to those who have legitimate reason for differing IP addresses; they may travel a lot, attend LAN parties, ect., and they end up having to change their password every time one of these events occur.

What I propose is that every time a new IP address logs onto the account, instead of prompting for a password reset, it asks the user if it was he/she who attempted the login from the new IP address. One good way to go about this is to have a code that the account holder can copy-paste from an e-mail into the launcher, thus verifying that he/she was indeed the one who attempted the login, and even have a checkbox that he/she can check to tell the game to store the IP address as "trusted". After this verification, the game account unlocks and the user plays as normal.
