    Why? Are you trying hack someones account?

    If JP can deal with it without complaining, anyone can.

    I agree. There must be another way to prevent the problem. e.g. allow a certain maxLoginAttempts from a unique IP

    why would anyone want to hack someones account here? besides you cant implement such a task to all users because of one or 2 incidents (just assuming)

    "Why" is beside the point.

    Fact is, it happens more than you know.

    it the users fault for not using a secur pass word..
    ie: (axEWC>;[.pD42r) is secure ............try a secure pass brute force only works for stupid ass common names passes


    this login check is annoying for people who keep their pc secure. i delete my cookies daily if not more often. who the hell would waste there time with a brute force on this site??? is there a secret vip section??? if someone is stupid enough to choose a common password then they deserve an attack on intelligence

    Most times the accounts aren't breached, but after 5 failed attempts, the account is locked and an email is sent to the registered email. Members see the email and make either make a thread about it, make a report, or PM us.

    The attempts to access accounts happens a lot.

    Just one example - https://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-eve...account-180459

    bitching mods about things you know nothing about is just ridiculous.
    turn your cookies on and stop whining.
