Discussion PSA: Remember to activate Two-Factor Authentication

[Bonejack]

Greetings Famifolks,

i've noticed that i never actually opened a thread either on one of the old forums. So i decided to change this and actually do something useful with my first thread.

So:

Remember to activate Two-Factor Authentication for the forum!

You can use Google Authenticator or another app of your choice, doesn't matter. But you really should do it.

Always stay safe!


.... And that's it. That's the thread. Have a good time here. ^^

And then save your emergency removal codes somewhere! So when you flip your kayak and your phone goes to the bottom of the river you aren’t SOL. I wouldn’t know anything about that though…

Echoing this. Write your backups in no fewer than three places to save yourself a major headache later on.

I'm intrigued.

Thank you for the reminder I forgot about doing it.

It had just rained so it had knocked a tree down on our usual path. I came around a corner and couldn’t paddle fast enough to dodge it and hit it paralell. Rolled me instantly. Thankfully it was only about two feet deep and I popped right back up but my phone was gone. It took 3 of us to dislodge my paddle. I wasn’t really worried about anything until my buddy said “that could have been your leg. You’d be dead.” Life is weird and this is why I had to make a new discord because they don’t have a way to remove 2FA if you don’t save your emergency codes somewhere. Ooops.

This is a very dark story for this thread. TWO ON YOUR 2FA. LOUD NOISES.

It sounded funny at first, but this sounds horrifying. I’m glad you’re okay!
