FK should have GAuth.

With the amount of scams/account compromises going on, I think Philly should implement a GAuth feature so that there will be no more excuses for accounts being hacked or stolen. Just my 2 cents.

Plus, GAuth makes everyone feel more safe.

Do you know how unnecessary this is? Plus Philly has absolutely no time for unimportant, trivial things like this

Oh, right, I forgot, according to you, FK accounts are "worthless."


No, it IS important, do you even know what GAuth is?

What is this GAuth you speak of, Master Emp.

Seems like it would be very useful.

Basically it's an app you install on your PC / Mobile Device, and with it you will get a secret code generated every 30~seconds. So for example if someone had your password, they wouldn't be able to login without that secret code/key from your GAuth app.

Make sense?

Their are account compromises happening?

like a billion "compromises" in feb/march. Did not believe they were compromised a single time; if they were great their fault
also like 1k old accounts were cracked but banned quickly and there most definitely cracked accounts that aren't banned

Doesn't matter.

You could change your password every few days/week, but this would be helpful.

Cons: If they lose there phone, app get's deleted.. that'll be a big issue.

That's true, but Philly could help you recover it easily.

I'm just a strong supporter of GAuth, is all.

I have something in the mix like this whether it be gauth or some other two step feature I do intend on implementing one soon, simply for additional security.

My friend got his account hacked too. He has been unbanned but Philly hasn't change his email yet so he can fully have access too his account. In other words his account is unbanned but the hacker still has control of his account.
