Default Oh well, I had a good run

This is actually deej, the deej2 account is something I set up a few years ago for testing. It seems that this site along with others have required a 2 step google authentication to be able to log on. I have tried to download the app for my phone and get these codes just to be able to log on here, but it has become so complicated that I just gave up. I have way better things to do than to spend a hour trying to figure out how to log onto just one site.

I am a member of dozens of forums, and this site is the only one in my list that is requiring this. I have no idea why I can log on as deej2 and not as deej, but if Google want to be that intrusive then forget it. They have their tentacles into every aspect of our lives and frankly I'm drawing a line.

So I may log on once in a while as deej2 but I no longer will have any mod or admin privileges.

Well I guess my complaining and getting a hold of the right person worked. Thanks Patrick! It turns out that I wasn't the only one that complained about this extra google security feature. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!! lol

Google is and will always be making us her bi*ch, but good for you for finding a better way around.
