Talking about the email box, i would say its really good, becouse its much harder to scam players acc...(they don't know your email password).


My english is not fluent, so sorry for my mistakes, i'm to lazy to correct them.


Forumn has made it so you get logged out every 3 hrs... altho id liek to see this cahnged to 1 or 2 at the very least cos cheaters could wake up every 3 hrs :P


If they are prepared to set their alarm and wake up every three hours - then fair play - pesonally - I think that that's just sad.

Again, on a personal note - there is a massive sense of paranoia about cheaters at the moment - and I think the current level of protection (which I am sure is responisble for all the current bugs) is more than adequate.

He's referring to the fact that the game is randomly logging a lot of people out - happened to me 4 times in the space of 10 minutes yesterday.

Forum has added something about it on the home page - and suggests using Firefox as your browser - but it is only a fairly recent problem - so I don't think it has anything to do with what browser you use.

Not to pull an old thread out of the depths, but I was just wondering if this is still in development or if this plan was archived in the dustbin.

Not being able to log on by cell phone is anoying.

yeha btu admin fixed it , guess the code is still not perfect as my freidn bypassed it with ease, he suggests soemtihng liek the TAW code because it is harder to get through but said it can be done in a day or so, or other optino is to scrap it and just use cheat detection systems.

No, please, don't. That's even worse. Sometimes the symbols are hard to read. I had multiple occasions where I had to try 3 times to bank my naq.

Yeah! That would mean we all could use our PDA's again. (Asumption) I'm in favour.

WTH is this new number and words crap? I think this is getting way out of control... investigate how other games avoid these issues rather than making a better code each time... its starting to get ridiculous

are you seriously saying you cannot read? if i had it speak out hte numbers as an option, would that help you? it still keeps the security, yet stops the need to read the spelled numbers once, only when logging in....
