Now imagine if it happened with FFXIV it could be a mess. Not to mention rmt and bots. I feel that this kind of app, while nice written down, would only add fuel to the situation.

    Edit: Here we go about that hacking/bug WoW had that I mentioned:

    While the hacking did happen, it happened in 2013 (A lifetime away in terms of software security advances). Not to say it couldn't happen here, but it'd be up to SQE to make sure there wasn't an exploit that could allow it to happen; could be something as simple as needing to use your OTP to log in to that as well.

    I do wish that some people would stop being so paranoid though; Sometimes i think people want security so tight that the only way to make it more secure is to block even the customers from getting into the game.
    Can things happen? Of course. Will things happen? Maybe. Are there ways to put things into place and have adequate security that the service is safe? Absolutely.
