My computer/network at home is adequately protected.
I do not want to go through âextraâ steps to log into my accounts.
I have, âAuthenticatorâ disabled. Is there a way to actually disable this feature while using a PC to log into an account?
*Iâm not talking about the client launcher. Iâm talking about logging into the https://login.eveonline.com/account/logon to access my account information. My launcher works fine.
When youâre lucky will you get an e-mail with a numeric code. Once you enter the code will it stop asking you and you wonât have to reenter it.
When you donât get an e-mail, because CCPâs software is actually quite horrible here, then you need to contact support@eveonline.com and ask them to check whatâs wrong. Their software sometimes marks you as inactive when it fails to deliver to your e-mail address and simply stops there.
When youâre using Chrome as your browser then avoid the incognito-mode, because CCPâs login will ask you for a new code every single time. Without the incognito-mode will it use a cookie instead and no longer bother you about a verification (itâs also how it works with the launcher).
The short answer is no; the only way to turn it âoffâ is by adding an authenticator (mobile app or something else). Itâs measures that CCP has taken towards keeping playersâ account(s) safe and to minimize account theft.
Do you have any statistics form accounts being âhackedâ? Every time Iâve heard of an account being âhackedâ it was some dumbđ´ sharing his account information.
No, I have no statistics of it but adding an extra layer of security usually stops some thefts from happening, but thatâs not saying it eliminates it entirely; âit does not magically cure stupidityâ, if people just follow the basic rules about passwords or internet safety in general most hacking attempts are for the most part rendered futile.
It doesnât take an expert, only someone who has spent a lot of time dealing with the systems the major email providers have put in place. As someone who had to recover more than a dozen email accounts recently due to a hard drive crash I can comfortably say most of those providers have flaws in their systems.
Thatâs the worst possible advice there is. I recently had to do that on another service and for some reason the service one day stopped accepting the codes from my authenticator. I hat to jump through loads of hoops to get that account back. Totally worth it.â˘
E-Mail codes or bust. And CCP should actually do something about Sisi in that regards.
You should have done like me and make a ticket, wait less than 24 hours, get an email with some questions and less than 24 hours later you are good to go.
Maybe you think you lost those two days but I suggest you go outside and take a walk and calm down, whatever you had to do in EVE Online can wait a few days.
Youâre wrong, thatâs NOT the stupidest feature in Eve! The stupidest feature is the calculator thats so f#$%^&g small that you can barely see the numbers and has no way to increase itâs size! There, I said it!
Then get your mom or dad to help you set up the launcher. I only have to fill it in when iâm on a friendâs PC. I have selected âsave account dataâ on the PCâs that I exclusively use.
Iâm not a child numbnuts. Iâm not talking about the client launcher. Iâm talking about logging into the https://login.eveonline.com/account/logon to access my account information. My launcher works fine.
