my pass and email is so absurdly long and annoying to type. I consistently mess up the password and think someone hacked me ALL the time cause of it, and the email is even worse. It's basically just random numbers and letters that we use the least in terms of english words. I also deposit everything worth value before i log each time. It's going good so far.
I honestly don't know how people get hacked. Maybe you guys use that SAME password for other things? Do you use discord? idk.
Maybe they should just add an option to add a pin if your account wants to trade over items.
I hate being afraid of having items in my inventory....i play on mobile so i log in and out like 40 times a day.
did you use the password before at some point in your life? lol

It’s fairly easy to hack into an email from what I hear without authenticator on it, so if somone hacks your email they can request to change password it’ll send the link straight to your email and they can change it from there. That being said email and RS account should always have authenticator on it that way they need your phone to hack you.

Rs3 makes you enter your pin before you can withdraw coins from a coin pouch or even trade someone.

Maybe osrs can implement a pin before trading

my alt got hacked with all my gold on it :( i sadly only have myself to blame for leaving a cash stack in my inv. I pretty much do only iron, so its not a soul crusher, but does suck because when i raid, my team do splits not ffa. i cant raid until i get the cash stack back on my alt.
If it was my iron, i would have literally murdered every sweaty nerd on this game/


If yiu need some starter cash lmk. Many people have been hacked recently, I'm somewhat afraid my time is running out but I have pin and auth and a random password.

nah, i appreciate it though. i got 10 bonds on the iron, so i dont need gp outside of paying out splits for raids. i just started doing jobs again to get gp.

I'm not sure why it's not already added to osrs. Lol.
I don't mind typing in a pin when I trade. I rarely trade anyways but it does give one extra layer of protection against hackers. That's extra time to recover your account :)
