Stop crying if you get hacked its your fault
Stop going to sketchy porn sites and using p2p programs that you have no idea how to use.
Unless you are on a mac and own a shitty cell phone there is no reason to not have a authenticator

Edit: The authenticator for the phones are FREEEEEEEEEEEE

Authenticator for iOS phones
http://itunes.apple.com/app/battle.net-mobile-authenticator/id306862897

Authenticator for Android OS phones
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blizzard.bma

Authenticator for Blackberry phones
http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/13011/

Authenticator for Windows Phones
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/apps/1347bbfb-bca2-e011-986b-78e7d1fa76f8

If you do not own any of those phones and have a Windows PC
WinBMA is a Windows based Battle.net Authenticator which allows people who don't have access to a smartphone supported by the official BMA to still be protected by an authenticator.
This will only protect you if you dont have any form of malicious software on computer, for those with keyloggers this will help

You do not have to enter the code in each time you log into D3, there is a tick box on your Battle.net account settings that only requires it when you try to log onto Battle.net. This is good so hackers can not change your password.




Also if you do use an authenticator write down the serial number it asks you to input into your Battle.net account. If the phone is ever lost/stolen/broken its a bitch to get Blizzard to remove it without that serial #


One Last Reminder:
Your email password should always be completely different than all your other passwords (actually, you should never use the same password twice). Your email is the key to all your accounts.

i was too lazy/intimidated at first, but i got one last night and it's really easy and i think it's awesome.

absolutely NO excuse to NOT have one, provided you have a smart fone.

I don't have a smart phone and don't need one because I am always by my laptop. I am not going to play 6-7$ for something that should have been added with the game or atleast be able to get one for the computer.
