Two-Factor Authentication

[WUT] Adam

Thanks to Nearata, the Game Lab Forum now has two-factor authentication. With 2FA, along with a password, you'll need a verification code from an app like Google Authenticator to log in to your account, which would make it EXTREMELY HARD (and honestly not worth the trouble) for someone else to log in to your account.

I recommend enabling 2FA, which you can do in your Account Settings.

var chars = "abcdefg…";
//script code to test every possible
//combination of passwords and username.

Ah whatever. It shall make dis place safer from hackers.

SquirrelGuy-5 I'm sure it has a limit to how many attempts you can make.

birthdayboy224 there's basically no limit to how long of a password you could make and if the forum accepts unicode chars you'll have to run a whole utf-8 runthrough along with various lengths each time which gets expensive, TFA is mainly to stop your credentials from being involuntarily phished or swiped without your knowledge then locking you out of your account by having a separate passkey it makes it much harder because then you either need to crack another layer or break the TFA sender
