I’m glad that Anet is trying to keep my account safe.
I’m not glad that I have to jump through hoops every time I want to even log in.
Is this thing going to stay forever? Or is the dev eventually going to plug up their loop holes so I can play normally?

Did you check the “remember this connection” button before clicking “Allow connection” ?

Even with the “remember” option, if your IP is dynamic and it changed since last time, you gotta wait for the email to be able to log in… Since my connection likes to stop suddenly sometimes while playing GW2, i find it annoying that i have to wait 5-10 minutes for the confirmation email each time…
Just make it so that you can remember the computer you are currently using, so there won’t be problem like this…

I do get confirmation email nearly instantaneously (I play off peak), but it is still annoying as heck.
I take it this function is here to stay, and it is the only thing that ANet could do to prevent hacking? Yowzer…

It seems like something is wrong with the system. Several of my guildies and I are being prompted each and every time we try to log on. It “should” be just a single prompt from any new IP once you OK a connection and select the remember connection option.
