User Authentication Upgrade





Sometime in the next week we will be logging everyone out of their accounts to upgrade our user authentication. If you don't have your account information handy now (like your password!), make sure you remember it soon!

Thumbs up, for the heads up. ♥️
I log in/log out everyday (that's what you get for sharing a computer with your siblings), so no prob for me! :D
Many thanks for the warning. And, as someone who got their Neopets account hacked: I applaud any and all authentication upgrades you care to do.
My apologies! I missed Excitement's post looking through the comments.
Would this be just username and password, or other stuff as well? I have a habit of not giving out any personal info on the internet so odds are I used a random date as a birthday. Would that be a problem?
Psh. firefox knows this stuff for me.
(lol but just in case, I rememberrrr~)
Hope I don't have to change my pin.Can't come up with a new one.
yeah...um...don't really remember it.. >.>

maybe i should go and look that up now....

thanks for the warning, good to know :)
Thanks ;)
passwrd???
Guess I should look that up.
But thanks for letting us know
Thanks for the heads up! ^^
I love Subeta! Thanks for the heads up. All set now. I would have been in trouble as I never actually log in ;)
I got all my data safe dont worry(like dont forget my password hahahaha xD, joke). Anyway thanks Keith for the advice :)
ACK!!! I dont know if I recall mine. EEKKK!
what day and how long?
I doubt this will affect me, but thanks for letting us know :)
Sounds good!
-runs- I always forget mine. XD
You guys just need to know your password. We are simply giving a heads up because we know some people never log out of their accounts, and therefore might have forgotten their password.
We have a PIN???
Umm can you be more specific as to what user authentications we will need because some of us don't use that pin system.
Mreh. I end up logged out every time I drag my laptop to a friends house. Firefox knows this stuff for me.
oki
Ballsaaaccccckkkkk. I forgot my PIN.
Excellent. Carry on.
Hmm... like @FLAKE when I download my account the file's only 20 bytes large. That doesn't seem right to me.

But I know what my password and PIN are, so I'm not too worried about next week.
Funnily enough I was actually logged out when I got on this morning, so... XD
Someone mentioned account download, and I tried as well... and as always it did not work for me. 20 bytes is all I got. :/

Anyways, I log in by hand every day, I know my pw. xD
yes thank you for the heads up. i have question though, I may sound stupid, but by account info do you just mean pass word and name or do we have to have our user number and other things also?
@Keith
And thus the panic sets in.
Thanks for the heads up though.
Thanks for the heads up! -downloads account just in case- ^_^ I got my pin, my pass, and my username on hand!
Thanks for the heads up !
Kel
OHMY I completely forgot my password DDDDx
Sounds legit to me.
Woops lol stupid lag! I'm good then!
I'm fairly sure all he means is the username/password.
Some people are so used to the site auto-remembering them that they haven't actually logged in in AAAAGES.
That's all. ^-^
password and pin?
and if i don't use any pin?
.....er, what? Stuff like your password/birthday, or .... ?
Yeah, what user information do we need to make sure we have? frantically grabs pen

Just your password that you use to login.

A LOT of users rely on just being logged in when they get on the site and forget their passwords after months of just doing that ;)

By 'account info' do you just mean pass, email and pin? Cause if so that's alright. Just checking I'm not forgetting something. XD
Stuff like this scares me. downloads acct
What info do we need handy? Username & pw? Anything else?
I dont rlly understand o-o
Thanks for letting us know Keith!
Ahaha, really? Wow.
Thanks for the heads up?
