Loggin in from different PC = LOCK your account wtf SE?

[bobbygunz]

So the player can complain that the sercurity sucks.. that all there info got hacked and possibly deleted? I really don't think so...

Well they're complaining anyway in case you hadn't noticed.

Better they complain about top notch security then a shitty one...

Did the same to me when I brought my laptop to a convention, The easy solution is to set up a security token, then the lockout feature is disabled as long as you enter the security code.

Yep Token is your best friend =), I love that little thing =).

They need to give players a way to opt out of this security measure.

They have, its called a Security Token.

Why would anyone want to disable a layer of security? Would you remove/disable your cars alarm just because it went off rarely for no reason?

[AlaulaTheGreat]

Whoa whoa... hell...
So your telling me the game does detect if you log in from a different IP...

So allow me to run this toward you... instead of forcing me to use my security token, Draining it's batteries a little after every use, every damn time. Instead, when ever I log into a different IP address, it request the security code.
Also cutting down the price from 9.99 to something reasonable like 3.99. Hell, if the reason why it ain't free is cause they need money, gimme the app and chock it full of ads that I only have to look at say I switch computers every so often.

Anyone complaining about the extra security has never had to deal with SE's customer service directly.

Taking 2mins to reset a psw when you change IPs is nothing compared to having to call their customer service, get stuck on hold for 20mins only to be told there is nothing to do or just get hung up on. Then you have to repeat 4 more time to get someone who will listen, who will then unlock you account.

Then you get in game find out all your stuff is stolen, call them back (Repeat the above btw) and then be put on a 2 month long investigation which you get 1/10th of your lost stuff back at the end.

Yea, the 2mins are more then worth it in the long run.

Well ppl loosing it.. is not SE's problem... the customer lost his token.. so he would have to acquire another one... Just me..
