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

[Tacgnol]

>staff makes thread asking users to use 2FA
>no one does
>they really want people to use 2FA for (((reasons)))
>can't just force people to usa 2FA for no reason
>give them a reason
>force people to use 2FA

regardless of who carried out this attack, we can ask ourselves "who benefits?" and the answer is telling.

AAAA ITS LITERALLY LIKE THE VACCINATION FOR COVID

Also funny because it means he literally set up 2fa to post this.

 

[Fedora Master]

I had no idea so many people were using a VPN. That must be some ultra serious shitposting being done.

You want the Real Internet you need a VPN

 

[Lord_Potato]

I had a complicated password of 15+ characters, why force this shit on me?

Perhaps I'm missing something but why is there so much whining about a fucking code sent to your e-mail address?

If it worked fine, I wouldn't complain. Other websites with 2FA constantly mistake my only PC for a "OH NO, A NEW DEVICE" and force me to go to my email and enter a code.

In the last 3 hours I logged into the Codex from 2 computers and one phone, each using vpn and different country IP address. Encountered no problems.

Codex and Drama are inseparable

Lamar Davis : Wassup, can a loc come up in your crib?
Franklin : Man, fuck you. I'll see you at work.
Lamar Davis : Ah, nigga, don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful, nigga. Maybe if you got rid of that old yee-yee ass haircut you got you'd get some bitches on your dick. Oh, better yet, maybe Tanisha'll call your dog-ass if she ever stop fuckin' with that brain surgeon or lawyer she fucking with. Nigga...
Franklin : What?

 

[Semiurge]

The admins here can restore access for anyone if needed (with proper proof), so that's not really much of a concern in any event.

The official way would be the "Contact Us"- form?

Nah, Twitter and some image hostings are blocked in Russia.

I just literally closed the browser, opened the browser, opened codex:

This shit is UNBELIEVABLE. TURN THIS OFF!

Are you running your browser in some kind of no-cookies incognito mode?

[Parabalus]

The hell is all the ruckus about? You can literally use the same exact email you registered with as a 2FA.

Judging by Iren's bitching on ormacord, a lot of codexers created new email accounts for the Codex and then threw away the passwords.

You can change your email account to a new one, without needing access to the old one.

 

[Stavrophore]

TIL how many codexians are technoboomers.

So the 30-day trust period is cookie-based?



That's not going to agree with those who keep a clean browser.

No. Just normal Chrome.

Clearly the cookie kept, because it wants to log in as Bester. The problem is something else, not cookies.

 

[Ereshkigal]

I'm more of a lurker than anything, but I don't save cookies and the 2FA process gets in the way every time I log in. I suppose this is the end of the road for me, I'll lurk the gaming forums without logging to my account and that's it.

 

[BrotherFrank]

2FA is cancer, biggest decline of the codex yet as it imports cancer under the guise of being for the users benefit.

I bet you the one time it might actually be useful for me i'll end up screwing me over anyways or i'll lose the codes somehow. And hell since i pasted it in the notes of my email then any l33t HAXOR who can access my email will then be able to defeat the 2FA anyways so it does literally 0 for me other then piss me off.

 

[Semiurge]

"urmom"

 

[BrotherFrank]

Personally i like to use passwords like fuckyouhackingpos or ihopeyoudieifyoureadthis, this way if someone does try to hack me i get to insult them a bit on the way and hopefully hurt their feelings.

I like passwords made up of random things like "grail.access.watch.ephemeral"

Easy to remember, but just as difficult to bruteforce as any stupid 1337sp33x nonsense

This is absolutely not for the users' benefit. It's for the admins' benefit.

was it the feds? CIA? KGB???

Yes, phrases are considered to be superior to "strong" passwords now from a cyber sec perspective.

One of the big advantages is that users are less likely to write phrase passwords down on a post it note and stick it to their monitors as many normies do.
