Not only have I brought traffic to your website over the years through my unique brand of drama but I've also literally made you $500 from it directly.

You're lucky I haven't threatened to take my ball and go home by now. I'll settle for administrative access. :smug:

It would be a logical fallacy if I (we) were to assume foolishly that there will never be another security issue again due solely to 2FA being enabled, but there's nothing fallacious about solid empirical evidence. Before, we had nothing but problems. Accounts being stolen, mass deletions, etc. Everything lately, however, has been quiet.

Am I wrong?
You should increase security measures even further, just to make sure
Indeed. I still stand by my word that 'dex isn't secure enough until for logging in it requires using fingerprint scanner to scan our penises.

Having to 2FA and trust device every 30 days is fucking annoying.
I know, it shouldn't be since it's only once a month, but no other fucking page (even at work) makes me do this (beside crypto), and we aren't dealing with finances here aren't we?
So why do fuck do we have this annoyance?

Because the admin responsible talutaint is p. incompetent/lazy/etc and 2FA isn't needed, it just guarantees he never has to deal with a particular forum glitch again — even though that's supremely unlikely in the first place.

It's like your window is broken so you board it up and leave it like that. Sure, it's ugly, inelegant and lazy, but your window won't be broken again. Eastern European solutions.
