Speaking of the new forum being released in February 2015. How's that going?

It's after February 2015. Though that is fuck all of a deadline, since December 2020 is after February 2015.

Ok but this is ridiculous. I would like marotheminer to get on the subject.

Marco can't answer you since he got banned today (as you can see on his signature). Maybe after his ban period will be over he will return and clarify this.

How often do people get into other's accounts? Do we really need 2 factor authorization? I am not saying we don't; I am just asking.

it seems that people are getting in more often as of recently. I think it is more of an issue with people's poor security practices then with forum security. I would also think any kind of 2fa is just going to make people have a false sense of security when trading with others and will not demand signed messages ect when trading with trusted members which will only result in more people getting scammed.

There is no specific time period, it mostly depends on the owner's actions such as clicking a malware links, downloading malawares, bad passwords etc...

Yes, we need! It will help us to get a layer of security more. It's not compulsory, it is recommended.

From what I gather the forum was always stated to be 'early' next year but it wasn't guaranteed (though a beta may have been mentioned for then). These sorts of things usually always go past deadlines so there's no point giving more release dates out when they'll likely just come and go then people will whinge again.

I think we should have 2fa login on here. I loaned to an account and now have it for collateral but some people think the account may have been hacked and this will stop the risk of that happening.

2-factor is coming with the new forum.

Which was supposed to launch this month.. So when is the next 'deadline', next month? year?

They probably don't have a concrete date for when it will be released. If they give you one people will only complain when it's missed which will be likely. Best just to have some patience and it'll be released when it's ready though I'm sure they'll give us an update when they have something definitive.

My goal is becaming a billionaire.

It's weird how the developpers of the new forum ignore such a threads here or the "new forum software" section when we ask about when the forum is going to be released ... but they do answer us sometimes on our suggestions .
We simply want to know an estimated date for the final release or Beta , dosen't matter then we will shutup Cry

about avatar it can be set like that users will available to add avatars after they reach a specific ranks

I think it might be wise to restrict avatars to higher ranks or at least to prohibit newbs from having them because it will make it easier for imposters.

Bump.

Why are you bumping this thread?
Everybody knows about the problems and they have been called out many times.
Changes would be nice, but as staff said, there will be no changes until we have the new forum.

That is right but if all of us get united and bound together we can make them to make changes .

Ps- @0p laat time someone put a java script on for which damaged the forum .

Do you know if 2fa will only be google autentificator??

I prefer Authy because its linked to your phone number. I broke my phone and was able to recover authy but not google.

Any idea on this ??

I don't know about Authy but Google 2FA and Bitcoin 2FA is there.

You can scan Google 2FA with Authy but I don't know whether it will backup Google 2FA codes. I suggest you to backup 2FA codes, so you can import it later.

-MZ

You could take a screenshot of the 2FA code and then encrypt the picture, then backup the encrypted picture after destroying the original.

Implementing 2FA however would likely result in a lot of people being locked out of their accounts because they lost their phone, their phone was turned off, ect.

Its better having to contact forum staff about being locked out of your account due to loss of device (which wont happen as much as u may think), than to have to contact them because your account got
stolen, and/or someone tried to pull some scams with it. Dont u think so?
2fa is a must have on any serious site.

cheers

+1.

It's their choice. It's good to use Bitcoin 2FA because Bitcoin 2FA is in this forum now and is working good but is done manually by Admins. In the new forum software, it will be automatic. Roll Eyes
