Greetings players,
While keeping your account secure isnt a game, it makes your experience playing our games that much better. Do your part to keep your account secure by participating in the Voluntary Password Change Campaign!
What: Voluntary Password Change Campaign
When: Starting September 6, 2011
We hope that all of our players will take the initiative to update their account information regularly.
Additionally, here are some quick tips for maximizing your account security:
Change your password regularly. Passwords should be updated at least once every three months.
Set up Security Questions or verify your account with Facebook on the Account Settings page.
For more details on your account security, visit our Game Account Knowledge Base. Thank you for your participation!
The Nexon Team

Ah, but are you, Nexon, doing your part to keep our accounts secure?
Yeah, didn't think so.
You're just very good at going "it's your own stupid fault you got hacked".

I usually try to give them the BotD, but I couldn't agree more. They really need to step up their game.

Well well, looks like my thoughts are already expressed in previous posts. Now, I must say, this has been a repeat of history again, Nexon screws up, blame their players, introduce a new security system, then a GM gets hacked... so which GM will get hacked this year and when I wonder?

Agreed with all that's being said here.
Also, if its voluntary, what's the point of making a notice for it? And why would it have a start date? They make it sound like we're JUST able to do it now.
And they want us to verify our accounts with facebook? Wasn't the rumors going around suggesting that that was one of the reasons people were getting hacked to begin with?

Maybe Nexon found their security flaw and finally fixed it.

Unrelated to Nexon's campaign, I tried to reset my password today and was unable to complete the process. I click the link sent to my e-mail, try to enter a new password and am told there was an error, to refresh the page and try again. Doing so then results in an error saying that the e-mail link is not valid(forget exact wording).
So I wouldn't try to reset your password right now, but then again maybe it is just an issue on my end.

My password needs to be changed and I can't change it.
Forever secure!
EDIT: Nevermind! My email was changed today, but I can't verify it, because I keep getting an error message whenever I try to send the verification email LOL

Yeah, I have the same issue. I wish I could do something about this, but I can't.

Oh how droll. Nexon going out and being mildly insulting by insinuating it is somehow the players who are at fault. That's exactly why I have been supporting them all these years by buying NX! To have their condescending corporate bullsheet spoon fed! Why don't you just go ahead and demand I trade in my firstborn to actually see some real customer support here?

Because that would imply there was anything, anything, in the known universe that would incent them to care.
