Hi everyone, and hopefully an ANet employee. I’ll preface this post with an apology, in case this has already been posted, and requested. I checked the stickies to see if there was anything on this, and I didn’t see something similar to what I would like to have done with the Account Authorization.
I would very much like to have less e-mails pertaining to someone trying to log into my account, from a computer across the world from where I normally log in from. So can you please add an option in the Account Management to allow us to choose which countries we might be willing to allow access to our account from. I understand that may sound confusing (since I can easily confuse people), but an example of what I mean is;
From a pull-down menu, I choose Canada as the ONLY country my account is allowed to be accessed in. (There could also be an inverted option, to choose which countries we would like to be automatically denied, which for most would likely be China, since all the authorize account access emails that i get are asking for someone in China to have access).
Now that I chose which country I allow or not allow access, you then ONLY send me e-mails for authorization when my account is attempting access in the chosen country. So if someone in Vancouver (I live in Toronto) tries to log into my account, I could deny that, or allow it if I ended up visiting Vancouver and wanted to play gw2. At least then, we can automatically deny locations where it is VERY unlikely we will be playing gw2 from.
If you are interested in this idea as well, please keep this post alive so it can hopefully be adopted.
Thanks everyone for reading.
