Make it harder to delete your account

Postby Sunni Daez » Mon Dec 27, 2004 1:57 pm

Due to someone messing with my keypad as I was logging out...all my charries DIED....It should be required to enter your password to delete your account....Then my charries would still be alive.....They were like my children, I raised them to be who they were becoming......and in 2 clicks they were GONE I was devistated, and there was nothing I could do, please impliment SOMETHING to make it a bit tougher to delete an account PLEEAAAAAASE

Suggestion: require to type your password to unsubsribe your account

OR

Completely take away the ability to unsubscribe, so you would have to wait for 2 weeks without doing anything for your account to go away

OR

After you unsubscribe you have 2 days to 'undo' what you did


--------------------------------
I like the first idea better

These ideas aren't mine either

With how fast people can starve to death, why do we have an unsubscribe option? Just so you can quit playing faster? If you want to keep it fast, but make it not accidental, I think entering your password is a must have.

I haven't had this problem. If you had, why not put over on flyspray as a requested Feature?

I can relate. I would deeply feel the loss as would several communities. At least for a couple weeks. Everyone seems to accept everything or die within 2 weeks.

I would be crushed. It would be very not cool. It's like leaving a hand grenade in a daycare. It should be fixed.

Agreed. The number of people who have accidentally unsubscribed or been accidentally unsubbed is surprising.

A password field should be required.

Alternately, take out the "X" button on the main page and put the unsubscribe thing in your account settings area, right near the active/on leave button. Makes more sense there anyway.

Second idea sounds like a good idea, West...

As a victim of this mishap myself I have to agree.

I lost my account of about a year and a half and many characters I loved dearly. Since then I just havn't been able to get into the game as much and only have two characters that I keep on.
