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

[Reinhardt]

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.

my codex email don't even exist anymore!

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.

yeah I can imagine a burglar breaking into a codexer's house and going "ahh the coveted rpgcodex password, looks like I hit the mother lode"

 

[The Brazilian Slaughter]

Uh The Brazilian Slaughter, have you looked at your post history recently?

I just did, saw nothing strange.

Did something happen? Or is it already fixed?

 

[King Crispy]

I like how Infinitron hacked TBS's Location message to say what it says now.

Edit: He changed it back. It once read, "Have you enabled two-factor authentication yet?"

 

[darkpatriot]

Ban darkpatriot for causing this mess

Probably unnecessary, as he has already sent a message saying he's not interested in opting into 2FA.

RIP darkpatriot

I actually found that you can do 2 Factor Authentication using the existing email you registered with, while I had thought you needed to link a second email, which wasn't going to happen. I will probably log in less as it is more annoying to do so now, but it isn't a complete non-starter.

In any case, shame on you all for victim blaming rather than blaming the person who actually committed the vile deed.

All deleted about 22 hours ago.

 

[Ryzer]

Can you just give us the permission to permanently delete a post from the server too? or it is just kept forever just in case for a Mossad trial?

I'm pretty sure some of those posts are authentic TBS that you just deleted

 

[lukaszek]

if we all delete all our posts then there will be no need for 2fa?

 

[ItsChon]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Codexers are such obnoxious, whiny little babies.

There is a very real problem of retards hacking accounts and deleting posts, and I don't think anyone is going to dispute that. So the question is, how do we fix that problem? We can either implement a measure which hampers a persons ability to delete their posts, or we can enforce 2FA.

Being able to delete my posts is a far more important freedom than having to use 2FA one every thirty days, or even every time I login. Most Codexers are old losers, but I like the fact that I can delete every single one of my posts with a script if I get into a JarlFrank situation. I'll gladly do 2FA to preserve that right.

Also, even as someone who supports Russia in this current conflict, hacking into peoples accounts and deleting their posts is completely fucking retarded. Even more retarded is deleting all their posts, many of which are unrelated to the actual conflict itself.

MOTHERFUCKERS-

Can you guys recover them from server backups? Quality posting is hard work.

Also lmao at dudes getting their hands on my profile and the best they can do is... delete a few posts? No vandalizing my profile with affirmations that I am a faggot homo who loves cock? The fuck is this garbage quality troll hacking, russian hackers suck and are a bunch of niggers. Total amateur hour, but we're speaking of russian copers here.

Wow good job russian homos hacking a sixteen years old password that's so old it can sexually consent. You truly are the hacker know as 4chan.
I also changed my password for safety's sake, used a fresh new one. Let's see them pwn THAT one.
You cannot beat me snowniggers, I am THE Brazilian Slaughter!

 

[Melcar]

Why you guys like getting hacked?

It still makes you enter the code every time you login. I will not give my actual personal email to codex, so now I have to log in to my fucking burner email everytime I login to codex, which is annoying. This will most certainly kill the forum.

I think a better solution would just be banning all vatniks.

So you were using a personal email account? What a moron.

 

[zerotol]

fuck 2FA

Heh, nice trick.

 

[Filthy Sauce]

Lol didn't even recognize the mail I had tied to this account. Junk E-mail #106 has been created. Maybe I won't loose the password for this one.

Welcome back, NegroMarine.

 

[spekkio]

Took me only 4 tries via email confirmation, since your inept server needed over 15 minutes to send confirmation email, which caused the code to expire.

Quality codex experience.

But at least all my shitpost are now safe.

Kidding, you'll probably fuck something up on your end soon anyway...

 

[EdgyRightWinger]

do not allow donations to circumvent those hurdles.

Goyim please. The elders of Zion will not allow that.

closed all tabs

horrible.

"Do you guys not have phones or other TOTP code generators or email" -The Administration

2FA has to be re-authorized every month on every device you log into the Codex with. I don't think your IP address matters.

What's the justification for requiring periodic re-authentication? What is this supposed to protect from? Hackers that can steal your session cookies but then wait more than a month? Not even Google does that kind of security theater and they literally hold the keys to the kingdom for many people.

Do you know of any other way to use a QR code reader than with a smart phone?

A computer is a machine that can be programmed to carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations (computation) automatically. Modern digital electronic computers can perform generic sets of operations known as programs. These programs enable computers to perform a wide range of tasks. -Wikipedia

Location: USSR

They still sell .su domains so on the internet you can be in the USSR.

Spoiler

As long as your are willing to pay the market price.

why can't we just use a hacker-proof password like "codex123" or "swordfish" sheesh

I use hunter2.

MOTHERFUCKERS-

The posts are right there, as you can see. They're just hidden.

 

[holla_cabezas_de_mierda]

its literally way harder to log in now than my Fidelity account which basically has my life savings in it--- I actually thought for a few minutes I might be locked out forever.

 

[Maxie]

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.

yeah I can imagine a burglar breaking into a codexer's house and going "ahh the coveted rpgcodex password, looks like I hit the mother lode"

ive broken into NaturallyCarnivorousSheep house for much less quite a few times

 

[Mortmal]

It's harder to login for sure , i am pretty sure i will end up losing those codes , and i am not the only one, but it will be good quality drama at least. So again thanks to twiglard, and thanks to the russian hacker for all that entertainment.
