What would be the point?
They can simply give out their secondary password along with their id and primary password.

I will not vote until my question is answered. Will the secondary password only be asked on other IP's or will it occur on all IP's. Cause I like the idea if it is from other IP's that you have to use this password.

I agree with what Neo said.  However, I know that's not the case all the time.  So I say implement this idea as this could really cut back on the account hacking.  And this way if people do still get hacked we can probably be sure they gave out the passwords.

First of all, you don't even play that much so your opinion is that of someone standing on the outside, second of all if they somehow manage to give out their second password along with their first then they won't be having their accounts restored; thirdly I'm beginning to think you didn't read the thread because kenny mentioned there'd be an opt out option if it pissed you off. No company should leave their customers in the black, and definitely not discriminate on them because of their mental ability.  I don't think I've ever heard you sound more arrogant.

To your first point, yea, I'm inactive atm but I plan to start playing again in some month.
To the third one, you're right I've only read the first post, my bad.
And I didn't want to sound arrogant, I just think people should understand, that giving out their passes is dumb and there is even a rule prohibiting account sharing.



Pokeh

Being inactive means nothing if your idea's make sense.

Says me.

I agree to some peoples' comments here.
It's pointless having two passwords because:
       
     1) It's tedious work doing it over and over for those who aren't stupid enough to hand out their passwords.
     2) Who says that this one won't be handed out as well? If someone offered me unlimited bs and I didn't have a brain, I'd give them both regardless.

There's got to be another way to fight account theft and this, in my opinion, isn't the solution.

EDIT: Perhaps you could implement a choice to bring in a 3rd person into the trade. To watch the process and take screenies?  ::)

Perhaps you could find a way to block another IP to log-in your account. This would also put a stop to account sharing.

Yes, the whole idea for this is to protect accounts from other websites and hacking programs.  If someone wanted to give their secondary password out, then there's absolutely nothing we can do to protect them.  This will save me a lot of time also, because I will not be providing account restorations if this is implemented.

Yeah we'd also be ****ed if our IP changes by itself or if we tried to play at a relatives/friends house.

Then make it so only a "foreign" IP needs to put in the password.
