well i held off from activating this and merging my account with b-net due to all the threads i kept reading about how it screwed things up. Then suddenly i became super paranoid today and decided i was going to lose my account and all my work
RIGHT NOW!
If i didn't make my account as secure as possible.
Making a battle-net account and merging it with my wow account was
SUPER EASY!
like 1-2-3 and i was done. Logged in from that info with no problem within 5 minutes of creating!
Downloading the mobile authenticator to my iphone, was also super easy.
I was a little worried about how it would work,
CAUSE I AM A BONEHEAD!
Luckily now i am
UNHACKABLE THROUGH KEYLOGGING!
I guess what im saying (TL;DR:) is that if you are on the fence about protecting your account this way
DONT BE!
It actually works and by god, i feel so secure i want to shout out my login info
FROM THE HILLTOPS!

How did this slip by for a day without comments until now?
Anyway, authenticator is almost like a gift from God.

seriously with the authenticator, i don't really feel sorry for anyone who gets hacked, especially because if you are close enough to me i've talked on vent about how crappy it is to login with the authenticator every time i disconnect, im still glad my account is secure, and i mention it as much as i can and tell people to go buy one, now if blizzard doesn't want to pay us for the advertisements, they could atleast order a few more when they put an order in.

i ordered one the other day, hopefully I will get it this week :)
btw attaching your WoW account to your battlenet account is a smart thing cause at least that way the account steelers can't merge your account with their battlenet account

not really, I don't wanna spend hundreds of dollars for an iphone just to get the authenticator for free where I can just spend bout 7 bucks for the authenticator.

*Handier and cheaper for people who already had an iphone.

I like it because I can actually SEE it, though it's annoying when my phone is charging near my bed, or when I click to get a code right as the code is about to refresh itself and I have to wait. I have three keychain fob authenticators now, never going to get used again. :|

merging accounts is impossible since the "i accept the agrement" button is coverd by the text and cant be removed by any means. so im said !@#$ it!

Anyone know if they are going to port this over to anything besides the iPhone? I have a HTC TouchPro from Verizon that I would like to run it on, but as far as I know it has only been released on the iPhone. I hate the fob since I always break things hanging from my keychain, and I am always traveling it would do me no good to only keep it at my desk.

Too bad Verizon is not on the carrier list, and neither is HTC... oh well...
