Re: Account Info Change

It shouldnt be to easy to change the email tied to an account, cause that'll make it easier for people to steal the account. Account password changing would be OK I guess. And as for the deleting of characters, what if someone else has access to your account somehow?

Re: Account Info Change

Character deleting should be pretty easy just have a timer on it, so that if you or someone else tries to delete one of your charactera you have 15 or so days to change your mind and unmark it for deletion.

But being able to change your account password and email should be available, it would keep some people from giving out thier info, and those who do deserve what they get.

Re: Account Info Change

Regarding new server (which is not very far along, admittedly)...

Presently my account code allows one to change their account password. E-mail isn't presently changeable, but I may make it possible if we tie it to PayPal account or somesuch. The main problem is not having any secondary verification that the players are in fact themselves. Folks can't create an account without a good e-mail address, so it's less of a problem than with current client.

As for deleting characters, I might make it possible with e-mail verification and a one week timer or somesuch, or maybe a month if it's a high level character. This would be a good guard against folks' accounts being broken into.
