This has been your worst update so far.

Even if they made us throw in Japanese characters and our first born, it wouldn't be more secure. Security is up to the individual not the password itself.

I have not yet procreated, so I can't even throw in my first-born. :(

We've made some changes which lessen the requirements, however we still recommend you use a strong password.

Ok now I am in. 3rd time lucky. Maybe wait a few seconds after you change pw to let servers catch up?

This is a much better solution than the ISP one, but may be worth putting a link from home page to a mini-guide for those who are having problems, as seems a lot are.

Hoof: Now with this fixed, is the IP verification coming back, or is this it for security for now? (I was still able to verify my IP addresses today, even with that system "off" now.)

fixed the massive lags spikes as well I hope? No clue what you're toying with when you update stuff, but the servers sure seem to hate it...

No one can deny that we changed this game and influenced it in such a way that NO ONE could compete with us.. so much so that they changed the rules. ~Abhorrence, chosen founder of Cerulean Sins

Well, if they code the way I think they code, they code offline, test it locally, then, they take a server offline, pop the new code in, and put it back online. Then they take the next server off, and so on. The lag is just that there are less servers to handle your request at the moments they are putting the code on one of them, which is offline.

How about players that just simply can't log in at all,
can't even reset pw, cause they have old email address on information?

If they code the way it sometimes seem they do, they most likely take the entire server rack, place it in a long line, wrap the code around an iron spike, and just start pounding it through all servers with a sledge hammer :shock:

Catch-22 there... You can't reset your password without your email address, and you can't reset your email address to a new one without being logged-in, which needs your password.
