Email Login Enabled and Multiple Email Registrations - Omniscient - Mar 11, 2016

Due to the increased amount of closed accounts due to inactivity I have decided to allow multiple accounts with a single email. This means if you have a closed account due to inactivity you will get a notice upon login that your account was closed along with advice to join again. I am allowing those members to use the same email to join in an effort to make rejoining easier.

I have also enabled email logins once again. I believe the majority of problems associated with the stolen accounts has now passed but if I see the problem arise again I may turn off that feature.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for letting us know, stay healthy.

Good stuff Omni. Nice work.

Awesome stuff I noticed quite a few people lost their account to that security measure (disable email login) because of special characters.
Glad it's back on now. Can we still login with our usernames though?

Yes, username login is default feature.

Very glad to have this back, I ended up changing my username because I couldn't login with my email.

That's pretty cool for peeps that didn't do anything wrong except get tied up outside of HF Irl for a while.

Nice one Omni.
Cheers.

Thank you Omni,

hopefully this will cut out all the low quality unwanted spam posts about people wanting their accounts back and not knowing why they can't get it.


* - Mr. WAVES - Mar 12, 2016

What about the one that were banned for creating a new account after inactivity?
