Suggestion Remove the sign-in for 30-days option

[SylverReZ]

I despise on having to sign-in to GBAtemp after 30-days have passed. I would like there to be a 'remember me' option so that you are always signed in without limitations.

At least I'm not the one who has this issue.

you don't stay signed in, even with the checkbox checked? I stay logged in at all times, except for when I clear out the cache. I didn't even know about this 30 day limit. it might be for removing users who've only signed in once or don't sign in anymore. however, there are several users who maintain accounts, but haven't been heard of for years. I know you can change credentials depending on the user group, so it's possible it's only for normal users.

The 30-day login limit only applies if you have 2FA turned on. It's pretty annoying, but I guess it's just another security measure.

That's true, especially if you want to visit the forum every so often.

Also, I guess this thread is a good way to figure out who doesn't have 2FA turned on and is therefore more susceptible to having their account logged into by an unauthorised person.

Seems like I've played everyone at their own game.

Isn't it just user error? or crappy browser settings?

It's not a user error or anything with my browser for sure.

Nope. Like I said above, it's a side-effect of 2FA usage.

I wanted to break the silence on this thread. I don't need any help relating to signing in, but I am suggesting for the 'Sign in for 30-days' option to be removed for 2FA, this is what my thread is about. I do now realise thanks to you all that this only occurs if you have 2FA configured onto your account, as I didn't know this beforehand.

Sadly 2FA isn't highly used by me, only for a few services that require transactions ,but good to know anyways

same for me. I use 2FA for the big three purchases, because I don't trust any of them for security.

I do also have 2fa on the big three current generation consoles, but then again Sony security suck for real

It definitely needs to go.

I think it is a standard for password with 2fa involve, I work for a trading company, that used another company software, that we are require to have 2fa authentication when signing in a new device and every 30 days.

At least make the annoying 30-day thing optional. It's rather annoying to have to use my 2FA to sign back in to 4 web browsers each month.

Great idea. Make the 30-day thing be enabled by default, but make it possible to disable it in the privacy settings.

Yeah it's a 2fa thing

It isn't that hard to sign in I think

I only use 2fa on accounts I care about, like the ones I've had for a very long time, use constantly or have my bank information

I use it on everything.

I agree, the 30 days login stuff is pretty annoying. Please change this behavior.
