Two steps verification on Sherdog WTF??

This place has been around for a long time sir, no matter what my decision is it certainly won't change that.

Like I always say..." Im just a man trying to navigate the world around me".

That's true, but I can't help but feel Sherdog and yourself are better off with a Lemur in the ranks.

I know I made some joking posts earlier but I am honestly kind of confused here so maybe someone can clear some things up for me.

So you have all these codes.. what do I need them for? From what I gather in 30 days it will ask me to verify to log in..

Will it give me a code or will I use one of the codes I was given? And this will continue for like 6 months? Then will I get more codes?

What happens if you lose your codes?

The list of codes are for if you want to log in but cant access your email and get a regular code sent to you.
Then you can use one of the codes you got when activating the 2 steps.
But how often can you access Sherdog but not your email?
Its a just in case thing.

Exactly, which is why we stick it out, for the community not for the forum.. For the shoops, for the PBP's, for the bullshit politics, for the which movie is better X or Terminator 2, for the would you eat this off a paper plate? for the helping find lost mentally ill people in Thailand, for the incredibly insightful conversations and education on MMA, for the yellow cards, for the likes, for the GIFs, for Shadface etc imagine leaving all that for a quick two step

It's definitely for their own perceived convenience though. It's clearly not to the benefit of users, there's nothing of value to steal on a karate forum's user account.

Yeah, you.. all the people that make up this community.

We made you a shit sandwhich.

Eat up.

If you dont eat your shit sandwhich by Friday you will be locked out."

I searched the forums on their site and didn't find anything about this, although I only searched back to July but still confused by that statement

Look through the thread..
@HHJ Is on what I think is the right track...
I have seen some of it over the last month.
Lots of older (what I guess is inactive) accounts suddenly comes online and post and are banned within 1-2 posts.
HHJ happened to see what kind of links they posted on the forums... and based on him calling it "no no porn" I am pretty sure I know what he means.

IF this is the case I understand why this was done asap.

No no porn is something starting with Ch...

My interpretation of that is it doesn't matter who leaves or stays, they will carry on business as usual sir.

If a large portion of the core of this forum left, it could be detrimental to the survival of this forum. There aren't a lot left these days, i've been on forums that have merged merged merged and died a few times.. The place is stronger in every way with more numbers(especially active ones like yourself who are valued by many). Can't be having a large potion of our older members getting rocked by a two step man, we need the wisdom in the soup, stubbornness and all .


This place is a bit of an enigmatic phenomenon to still be so active in 2024, I would like to see it remain that way and I enjoy being a part of it.

I've made my(all be it sentimental and cheesy) case to stay, tell me if you find one of these disgruntled cases to leave that trumps it and i'll gladly put my boots on and leave too.

So sherdog is the one forum out of every other site, including every social media giant, that can't deal with this? I've literally never heard of this before. I'm starting to think @JayPettryMMA 's explanation was complete BS and this is just pure leadership laziness or corruptness, as has been displayed for the past several years.

I am just saying @HHJ post made sense to me + what I seen over the last months.
Secondly I have no issue using 2 step.
I use a lot more when doing banking, taxes, healthcare, and what not online.
Í have provided no new info to Sherdog I just have to use the email they already had.

But I do enjoy the dram queens and the people who think its because Trump won the election.
Mayberry has not been this fun in years.

i mean, we could hide teh codes to make it more like an easter egg hunt, but then again, might turn into battle royale with admins nuking the site from orbit to save themselves, even leaving mods behind

It could and I am not totally against it.
A good nuking might be something we all need.
Leaving @Slobodan behind would be the right thing to do
 
Let me get this straight...

Been here twenty years and
White belts can make threads any time,

But we suddenly have to concern about the fake name, fake birthday, fake email we used to sign up?

Now it's gotta send an email every time we visit the page?
