Ahnald's Latest Video

I got so wrapped up setting my TW defenses last night that I forgot to lock my front door and someone broke in and stole my TV. Absolutely DISCUSTING that CG allowed this to happen.

Maybe don't spam and Ultra won't close your threads. Also maybe don't use weak facebook accounts to get into GOH and then you won't get your game deleted.

Then maybe CG shouldn't have the option to use a FB if it is weak and they know it can be hacked. Or they could make it more secure. Just a thought.

Then maybe the user should have enabled 2FA in Facebook to prevent it from being hacked in the first place. Just a thought.

Sure it's always the user's fault and everyone is supposed to be an expert and not in the hands of the actual company that provides a game to make it secure. Especially when they know about security problems.

You can't blame CG for a user that created a throwaway facebook account with an easy to guess password or reset questions. it's 2022, you don't need to be a security expert to know these things.

Ah yes, and you know for a fact that every account that got hacked was a throwaway with an easy to guess password. Sure.
As you said. It's 2022 and many people have FB accounts they use on a regular basis and you also know what strong passwords are.

The hacks that happen on FB have nothing to do with how good your PW is. They have their methods to crack even very strong passwords.

I know that this one was a throwaway by reading his reddit thread.

And if we know that facebook isn't secure, we probably shouldn't be using it to link to accounts we care about. None of this is on CG.

I know the fashionable thing to do here is trash CG (I partake often enough) but you can't blame everything that goes wrong on CG.

You see there is the difference. I don't look for someone to blame. I am not in Kindergarten.
I say it as I see it. As a provider of a game(or any other Service that may contain sensible data, for example Credit Card or banking details) it is your responsibility to ensure the safety of people's accounts and their sensitive data and make your game as secure as possible against hacking.
If there are known issues with certain things, it is on you to fix them or not to use these things as to ensure your customer's safety. And not to expect customers to know about those issues, especially if you did not warn your customers about these known issues.

"Not looking to blame anyone," and immediately blames CG.

I used to be a paid VIP to Ahnald's channel, but in the last 6 months he's gone 100% negative, and breathlessly reporting on every rumor he hears. I commented twice on his video today about how the Delete Account function is something Apple is requiring *all* app developers to implement by the end of June, but both comments got deleted. Why is that? Perhaps he's happy sowing negativity and despair with his disinformation.

i havent seen ahnalds video yet but what I'm seeing here is that its a facebook issue? i thought the issue was the fact people can be randomly logged into your account when starting a new account, or something very close. like what has happened to ahnald in the past, and other players

lol

You can blame hacks on weak passwords, risky online behavior, or whatever - fine, it's the users fault they got hacked (they were asking for it amirite?)

It's still on CG to provide assistance to those people that fall victim to this. No one deserves to be ignored by a company that they do business with, especially considering the sums of money that some players sink into this game.

Are you going to complain to microsoft, apple, and google, and facebook, and instagram support too that anyone that knows your password can hack you?

That they all also support account deletions that a hacker than is able to use?

To be honest, since the release of conquest and everything that followed, he’s not the only one that is negative, and I can certainly understand.

The thread creator was complaining about account deletion feature in general, and wanted it gone

He was also requesting an account recovery but the account deletion, as the game states, makes it impossible for it to happen

he was also citing Ahnald's situation on why account deletion feature is bad, but Apple mandates account deletion, and so does Europe

And this post is just me saying from stuff I learned about from the deleted thread, research, talking to people that have knowledge on GDPR, and not through CG in case someone twists my words
