Mod Rascasse has honestly given the absolute dumbest responses to concerned players that I have ever seen a moderator/developer/representative of a certain company ever give their concerned customers/player. Completely disregard the concerns, respond to the people asking questions already on your FAQ regarding authenticator... Nice.

Start with telling us WHY JAG is being removed in the first place, and then go on to explain why this felt mandatory to you people, to just toss JAG for a half-assed authenticator, essentially compromising a vast amount of your playerbases account security in the process.

JAG works, this authenticator is trash.

We all know you sure as hell wont reimburse players who end up with account breaches and hijacked items after this. You'll still somehow claim it their fault.

I'm not gonna knock the Authenticator since it does seem pretty useful in a way. But personally I rather have JAG, I'm not a big fan of using my phone to log in. And I can also understand that not many players have smart phones and wouldn't want to be thrown under the bus if JAG was removed. The only reasonable thing to do is keep JAG for the rest of us who prefer it and can't use the new system.
If not... then well... you can see what everyone else is saying, haha

I'm flat out not doing this. My anti-virus is now my account security. Good day, sir.
Ain't that the d**n truth. I'm with you, bud. But seeing as they've made many poor updates as of late and each one only gets worse my account probably won't be worth protecting for much longer. Oh well. It was good while it was actually a good game.

If you're using the Google Authenticator and it isn't working for you, download the HDE OTP Generator instead. I just tried logging into my account using HDE and I finally went through.

(Remove the space between "c" and "o" in c om, and replace the 3 stars with otp)
