Default Staff Security Questions.

These days all i see is staff getting 'Hacked' and scamming people unaware that its not the actual person.

So add a security question of some sort before They log in.

It would definitely help.

It's not as easy as just saying it. A lot more has to be done to make things more secure, but I fully support. This could definitely clean-up a lot of members being hacked.

I don't think moderators can log into sythe while not being at their house.

I doubt half of them are even getting hacked, they're probably just faking it so they can scam a couple hundred dollars or more.. Then when it's investigated they'll see a different ip and unban them.. Heck, half the people who have claimed to be 'hacked' and stole a couple bill got unbanned with a TWC, then the TWC was removed..

Some of them have even been hacked more than once.. Fucking bullshit. If a kid is stupid enough to get phished or keylogged then he can stay banned if his account was used for scamming.

Hency why 'Hacked' is in inverted commas. And i could bet on the fact they DO NOT repay it.

They do have secondary accounts when they are out.

But I do agree with this, something that they only know so even if their main account gets hacked, the community is 110% protected.

Name a hacked staff member account that had an un-reimbursed scam happen on it? Also, there are already security precautions.

What do you mean staff members getting hacked?
It's probably because I'm new, but I haven't seen any staff members getting hacked.

if ex mods count: Blizzind: [RS RECOVERY] Blizzind, 05 User, Ex Mod, 2.5k Posts. , but majority of the time if a staff member is hacked and scams they reimburse any scam reports with valid proof.
