Account protection ideas

[Dat_Cool_Dude Official]

OK. If someone ever stole your account, would you want them to:

- Buy items without your permission?
- Add friends for no reason?
- Make any changes to your account?

That's why we should introduce settings that make you type passwords to use most features. However, it'll be a setting, so you can choose exactly when you'll need to type a password to access account features like this.

If someone got an access to one's account It's obvious that the person has the password so It's a total useless.

Not really. Moreover, you should at least try to answer the "rhetorical" questions. You never know, someone may logon to your account if you have a bad password. Probably not, but maybe..

Honestly if they were able to get into your acc can’t they just do the same thing with the password?

Because people should understand that there are some people out there who wnat to steal their account, so they need to make a secure password, preferably something that is not in their name.

i think this is just kinda dumb

first thing is if you have a good password and dont tell anyone, then what the chance if it getting hacked? Exactly.
Second thing, if would be pretty annoying to have to remember a second password and type it in whenever you want to do something with your account.

Well, what if you accidentally stayed logged on in a PC and you forgot to turn it off/lock it/close the program?

well i mean if you really want it be secure then here's an idea

have a feature where you can set a question which you have to answer if you ever login from a different place or device, but it isn't necessary, it's just something you can do if you want. that way paranoid people can have their accounts secure while people who don't care can leave it as it is lol.
