is this supposed to be an open discussion/question thread? it seems like you might have forgotten to lock it? just bringing it up incase you forgot or something
This is a known issue and it's not related to 2FA. Unfortunately, I can't provide any information about possible dates of the fix.
oh another question i just remembered, is this 2fa thing a result of this https://lemonyte.com/blog/beamng-malware? since supposedly the creator of american roads got the account compromised so to me it makes sense that 2fa was implemented after this, or had you guys been working on it for a while before this happened?
Nah, 2FA had already been tested and used in forums for a while (such as admins, moderators, etc). We've now decided to extend its use further. We're aware that this kind of security measures come with an increased friction: nobody likes to be forced to have better security when that makes things more complicated to use. And we (devs) definitely would prefer to use our time working on the simulator, rather than providing customer support for 2FA issues, or solving forum issues and what not. But still, we feel this is the best approach at the moment, a better overall balance of security vs friction for the community.
