About Theft of Passwords

Please re-institute as soon as possible the limitation on the number of log-in tries for the first password in the game as currently exists on the second password. There was a limitation in the number of tries on the first password that was removed for some truly inspirational reason. If you put that back in and put back the hour cool-off time, unless maybe the user resets via account management, you will eliminate brute-force methods of acquiring access to accounts.

I must admit I'm a little baffled why this hasn't been done. It's going to relieve pressure on support (which will always be over-worked) and it's going to prevent mass exodus of players. I'm not threatening about the mass exodus, I'm just saying that we're pondering this as the most reasonable alternative. Re-institute that limitation of tries and at least a time-out now please.

Thank you for your kind and prompt attention. I was also requested by a few experienced players on Govinda server to go ahead and post this.
