Two steps verification on Sherdog WTF??

[blaseblase]

If anyone's stupid enough to leave because of a code then this place will be better as a result.

This is a potential forum killer. You should take this more seriously if you care about this place. This literally just happened a few months ago to the UG. The leadership started implementing stupid rules and the userbase disappeared. It's entirely dead now.

Sherdog's parent company: This is my forum. I made it for teh MENz to talk with each other about man things. It's a wonderful place, and I own it!

Xenforo: Your forum?

 

[Cid]

Pretty sure my e-mail account for this site has been dead for over a decade.

Fuck almost two decades.

Fvck you fvckers I'm locked out out of my emails

Can do the QR code scan off your phone instead, I did it that way.

I'm not doing that and I don't think I even use the email I signed up with anymore. Guess I'll be peacing out in a week. See you on the UFC subreddit.

It took you more time to complain about 2FA than 2FA takes to set up. I'm not calling you dumb or a doofus, but this definitely is something a dumb doofus would do.

 

[KnightTemplar]

You are correct. Xenforo very strongly urged that we implement this, and we're listening.

Sorry to hear that, it's not a huge step and we try to make it as relatively painless as possible.

Damn, son. I know a lot Mods and Admins are liberals, but this seems a bit of an overreaction just because Kamala got KTFO by the God-Emperor!

 

[Jesus X]

Yeah I think I'm done here. 2FA for a karate forum? I literally don't know of any other forum that does this. Was there a bot problem, if there was I never noticed. This has the potential to kill the forum. Imagine that, the UG and sherdog killed off the same year due to idiotic leadership. It's going to be sad if that happens.

I'm considering quitting and I have been a member for nearly twenty years we also should have been warned way more in advance.

Am i reading this right? We need to do that within a week? That would be sad as I am really not sure that I ll bother. I hate that shit when I must for work, i won t do it for a fucking choy lee fut forum. Sorry.

Didn't even know this was a thing cause I never bother reading that stuff at the top. Sucks but I don't mind much I already have the app for work.

 

[Fox by the Sea]

i did it now, it took one minute, it's not hard.
you just get a bunch of codes you save in some notepad to have to use if necessary.
it really isn't a big deal.

 

[KnightTemplar]

OK, I'm verified. For whatever the fuck that's worth.

 

[PeterGriffin]

So basically, all you've done is explain to users you're doing it for sure, and that it was on your parent company's recommendation. How about explaining WHY you are doing it? There's nothing people love more than being put in this "take it or leave it" situations when it comes to technology and social media.

Sherdog has never done much before to ensure accounts are legitimate (or at least it doesn't seem that way), and the Sherdog staff ought to know who the troll accounts are.

i don't ever want to see you post out of character ever again.

This reminds me of the movie thx1138 or equilibrium

The terrorists have finally won

The sooner Elon buys this site out of his petty cash and Makes Sherdog Great Again, the better.

This is ridiculous ^^^^

My unceremonious leaving of sherdog in regards to this issue reminds me of barry anticlimactic death in the TV show barry just sudden and unexpected.

I have no idea what this is or what I have to do,
