PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: 2FA NOW MANDATORY - YOU DON'T NEED A PHONE NUMBER FFS

[BosanskiSeljak]

This is incredibly gay.

 

[Tacgnol]

I will just remind everyone that none of this would have happened (requiring 2FA to log in) had it not been for the actions of likely a single user who was so butthurt over the content or direction or even existence of one thread in our off-topic section that they decided to breach the accounts of several of the people who also participated in that thread and chose the one way to grief this site -- mass deleting posts, breaking multiple thread continuity -- that forced the administration to take action.

You can take issue with the severity of said action but to blame the administration for the incident in the first place is weapons-grade retardation.

And who was hacked in the end? (was it me??)

DexterMorgan (maybe, this one happened previously), DarkPatriot, Konjad and Brazilian Slaughter.

 

[Lord_Potato]

Imagine instead abusing entire forum to change you just gave that potato retard another account?

He probably gave his password to some tranny for dick pics while chatting in live chat.

Oh, no! Super famous poster I never herd of would be so upset and if he leaves what on earth would we do?

We have so few Potato toilet cleaners here, we have to protect those peasants.

You easily forget that it were the retard actions of a vatnik that started the whole issue.

DexterMorgan (maybe, this one happened previously), DarkPatriot, Konjad and Brazilian Slaughter.

All of them noble supporters of Ukraine.

If you are a (non-disabled) man, the only way you can be a noble supporter of a cause is by putting your ass on the front line. Anything else is pussy shit and you don't get to claim you're a supporter.

No,you can also organise fundraisers, send money, finance weapon purchases, deliver aid etc. There are many options.

But my point was different: that only supporters of Ukraine from the known thread were targetted by the hacking attacks. This points quite obviously to the culprit.

And so other vatniks should shut their traps about the new measures introduced to safeguard against such attacks in the future.

So the stuff women should do, makes sense you think so. If you're a real man who actually believes in the cause you'll do more than send some money.

 

[whydoibother]

Oh no, now I'm starting to experience the occasional slowdown too.

The tranny jannies took out phone numbers, and now they are killing the website. Next stop: blood clots.

So third worlders? Why do we care about them again? Is that the new Codex user base?

 

[SexExitium]

Taluntain I don't know how these mass deletions went down but maybe there's some sort of a xenforo flood prevention feature or add-on that could be used to restrict the deletion of one's own posts to once every 15mins or whatever. wouldn't that do the trick?

 

[Taluntain]

There's no such addon, but post deletion could be time-limited or disabled altogether, as discussed in this thread previously.

 

[Melcar]

[mondblut]

That crap asked me for the code again. So much for muh 30 days.

 

[Peachcurl]

did anyone communicate _how_ those passwords were acquired in the first place?

 

[Lady Error]

post deletion could be time-limited

Wouldn't that solve the whole issue? Make it like one post deletion per hour.

2FA on a discussion forum is just overkill, especially with the 30-day limit and the fact that even that does not work for quite a few people.

 

[King Crispy]

2FA on a discussion forum is just overkill

Is it? It's already solved the problem, and we could argue (if we were heartless assholes) that it already has solved who knows how many other problems by driving off a large contingent of our more problematic users due to their uncontrollable rage at the temerity that an obscure nerdy computer roleplaying games-oriented website would turn on a feature to protect itself from blatant malicious activity.

 

[whydoibother]

Especially weird when users who have literally made payments to the website suddenly feel scared of connecting their phone to it. Nigga, your name, personal number, bank account, etc, is connected to it via that $5 you wasted on Trump icons.

 

[Lady Error]

Is it?

Yes. There is a better and relatively easily solution that will work for everyone and will not waste our time.

It's interesting that you won't share what your opinion of this is by default.

Almost like we have to guess what it is.

Almost like a woman.

Not limited like that, limited the same as post edits can be limited, i.e. how far back you can go when editing posts. E.g. a week, a month, 3 months, etc. Anything else would require custom development and is unlikely.

Try reading the thread title. And this thread, where it's mentioned about two dozen times that you don't need a phone and that we don't get your phone number even if you do use it for 2FA.

 

[Skinwalker]

A

Is it? It's already solved the problem

Wasn't the thread having the same problem as before after 2FAg was enabled?

 

[King Crispy]

whydoibother makes a valid point, though. If you donated to Codex, we already "know who you are". Now, all of a sudden, you're worried about providing potentially more info?

That would work too, no?

Are you high or something? I have no idea what opinion you are talking about.
