Google Auth

[Laughter]

I think philly should implement Google Authentication on the forum. That will make every account secure, as a lot of accounts have been getting compromised. I don't know if this has been suggested before but if it has, I apologize.

Personally I dont feel its that necessary because if accounts were really getting compromised they wouldn't go after smaller accounts but accounts of higher ranked members such as philly, color, rude ect. If only they got hacked this would be a good authentication.

I would sort of agree about the extra security. Have like a new verification thing when signing in. Like in steam you have to get a code sent to your email or phone in order to sign in.

I would suggest you checking out LF as many DBs were leaked there. I was talking to @bomb last night about the user @Hassam and I saw his info in many threads there. His pw was Ftclarke88

Yeah, having extra security would be beneficial to everyone

Still though it really isnt that necessary unless someone like philly gets compromised then its a problem.

I suppose you are right. But having extra security can never be bad

Correct, we will see how this forum takes us and if more stuff like this happens maybe philly will implement it who knows.

Compromised accounts leads to scamming... Who knows maybe people have access to respected accounts already and are just waiting for the right time to scam people. Maybe @hassam was just the first victim. I guess time will tell

But the problem is some people could say they got compromised then go on a scamming spree or the other way around.

I don't see a reason for people who have built there reputation on the site respected to scam. I'm also assuming those who are respected have probably donated well over 150$ to the site alone

This is what should be implemented

That is essentially what Google auth is. Either of those would work.
