I can't say that requiring Discord to get any help in that is something I support. You should at least have an email adress set up which people which can be used by people who do not have Discord.

use a password manager everybody!! https://pfp.works/ is one that turns a master password into site-specific ones. though password managers don't really help if you expect the strange url site to be legit because the normal one was down.

Got a random friend request too, immediately deleted it. Thanks for keeping us in the loop, MD staff!

I wish there was a way to use 2fA without an authenticator app, but it's definitely better than the alternative

Ahhh, so that explains the friend request... Here I thought someone could actually tolerate me. Oh well!

It really kind of baffles me how people can fall for such silly tricks year-after-year. I wonder if the MangoDux(tm) team can keep it under control, or if they will be forced to develop a simple two-step authentication? It's like a neverending fight of silly bullshit with these obnoxious "nigerian prince's".

Imagine being under the age of 60 and still enter your information into random forms on the internet without checking what website you are on.

I accepted that friend request though.... Will anything serious happen just by accepting the request?

@Holo - Well, damn. I honestly haven't looked too deeply to notice. That's good to know! It would be a big improvement to peace of mind if more community members used it -- particularly mobile users.
