Suggestion "Last Login"

My suggestion is pretty straight forward, basically when you log in theres a line on the left under Game Time for example that says Last Login : Sunday, February 25th 10:15PM Game Time of course and it shows the IP that last logged into your account.

This can be a good method to monitor your account for security reasons to make sure no one is logging in and checking your stats and or trying to manipulate your account.

Edit: Vote added Please vote.

Thanks.

Even if it isn't exactly a new idea, still good in my opinion :wink:

The idea stated in that thread is not really what i'm going after, my idea is simple just shows when you last logged in date / time / and the ip that last logged in. The other persons idea is that only that specific IP can do anything to the account which isn't good for people whos IP's change constantly.

I can definately recommend this idea as it is a nice way for the user to be able to monitor the safety of their account, at least to some degree.

It irritates me when people like you post crap like that. How is that helpful. If you remember the idea, then go find it and post the link as Bazsy has done for you. You should thank he/she.

Also, interesting idea purely for the interests of self assurance and security.

Well i wouldn't go that far, he could have only a little time when he posted. Or was simple too lazy to help others what they can do for themselves.

BTW security is a good thing to think on, but only a few ppl knows what is IP and how can he use it to prevent anything... so i don't see a point in this.

Security is a key essential to this game, by having such an update in a game people can be more aware of what is going on in their account and can predict an outcome before it happens.

For example you log in and see, a different IP other then yours, you can immidietly change your password. Perhaps you think people don't know what an IP is, anyone who has used the Internet for more then a year would have heard the word IP as assigned by their ISP to connect to the internet and those who have not should really learn a bit more.

By the way, not to come off rude or anything , but just because you don't see a point in this , does not mean the idea is flawed.
