Like the picture above, there is a fog hanging over Guild Wars 2. Plain and simple, accounts are not secure. They have repeatedly said as much, and it has been experienced here: unauthorized login attempts from unknown locations attempting to obtain the account password. ArenaNet is still refusing to open their forums and is strictly talking to their customers via third party sites like Twitter and Reddit. The Trading Post was briefly functioning last night but upon login this morning it was once again down for maintenance and as usual, the cash shop was up and working.
Don’t get me wrong, the game is fun and you can progress without using the trading post. However, are you willing to continue to play and leave your account vulnerable to potential hackers? Why hasn’t ArenaNet implemented mobile authenticators, or a series of security questions to protect account security?
