Some improvement idea for securing an account:

My account was accessed by an unfriendly player 2 weeks before. You may know what I lost. Last week one of my best friend's account was also accessed by gold seller.

I started to thinking how can be more secure an account:

1, Country check during login procedure: Most of the players are playing from the same country without proxy from other country. During login, the country ( by IP ) can be checked and if it is not from that country the player used 3 times before, a pre-check procedure can be start to validate, the user is the account owner or not. The pre-check procedure can be: mail, sms and/or NCSoft master account validation.

2, Harder master account name: NCSoft master account name and password can be much more longer and unique. So it will be harder to accessed by unfriendly player.


If you have any other suggestion or comment, I will happy if you leave a message.
