RPGCodex has gone insane

[Roguey]

Taluntain is a moron and he's running more than one forum, the 2FA is his idea

Yeah and those other forums didn't have any users get hacked. It's just the Codex that attracts unhinged troublemakers.

Wantonly abusing your user base has consequences.

He doesn't care at all about somebody getting "hacked", only that the breached account started deleting posts causing XenoForo to shit itself, which Taluntain says is simply a "feature" of XenoForo and the devs know about it and are not going to do anything about it since deleting a thousand posts "isn't the correct way to use the software".

Somebody getting their account breached isn't because of hacking of "unhinged troublemakers" it's because said user is so stupid he used the same login and password on a completely unrelated site which did get hacked and his login/password was leaked. The right answer to that is to nuke that account and laugh at the user for being so stupid. Maybe he'll learn an important lesson.

2FA is completely unnecessary, it's merely convenient for Taluntain. That's not the same as necessary.

Tbf using different passwords is like drinking enough water, something you probably should do but that most people won't and the vast majority of people will go throughout life just fine that way. Of course, the codex being the place that it is, would probably warrant some form of upped personal security but then you have to ask yourself why anyone would post in such a dumpster ass forum in the first place.

Correct. This is his hobby, he's going to do whatever is more convenient for him.

Use a password manager

I don't trust password managers.

To me, it just feels like if the password manager got hacked, then I'd have an even harder time getting all my accounts back.

[rusty_shackleford]

I've made the technology subforum publicly accessible if anyone wants to share this guide on the codex to help out those less fortunate

I use KeepassXC, the database is kept locally and the program makes no network connections.

The database itself is encrypted so you can back it up wherever.

His hobby is to own and operate a number of internet 2.0 forums.

Isn't he a slav from Slovakia or sth? This might be his main source of income.

The KeepassXC might be worth looking into.

I currently use a local data storage system with no network connections also.

It's called a pen and notepad.

I have a neural mnemonic disk storage system, it comes with ocular connectors, two quarter spectrum cameras and a penis.

I've heard of that system. Apparently many of its users deem the penis to be unnecessary since it is never used, so they chop it off

Significant overhead in the interface between analog and digital though.

2FA exists for a reason. Irrational aversion to 2FA, password managers, and other no-brainer security measures are a sign you might be technologically retarded. Remember that the Codex did not even have HTTPS for years, because they were too incompetent to implement it.

You said what?

LastPass Hacked: Password Manager With 25 Million Users Confirms Breach

One of the world's biggest password managers with 25 million users, LastPass, has confirmed that it has been hacked. In an advisory published on August 25, Karim Toubba, the LastPass CEO, said that an unauthorized party had stolen "portions of source code and some proprietary LastPass technical information."

Imagine trusting computer code when everything can be hacked. That kind of makes you the technologically retarded one.

Lastpass is a bad, proprietary implementation that has shown numerous red flags over the years, released by an untrustworthy company. Your brain is fried by the internet so you can only communicate in article snippets instead of trying to form an opinion on anything yourself. There is a reason these things are the industry standard for managing passwords for individuals and organizations alike, especially among tech businesses. Now you can keep writing down your passwords in a notebook like a stone age retard, or you can try figuring out why.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHA Retard says what?

It's called secondary source documentation. It's to present proof backing my statements up. What did you present again? Oh nothing but your musings that you shat from your mouth.

Again, anything that is coded on a computer can be hacked. Everything. Prove me wrong. I dare you.

Worthless cliche that brings nothing to the discussion. No, AES-256 can't be "hacked". Zero knowledge encryption can't be "hacked". You're out of your depth here.

[MadPreacher]

I can't even back up my statements so I have to shit out worthless drivel because I've been Trumped.

You don't say.

I see that the level of technological literacy remains as high as it was on the Codex in 2012
