NationStates Jolt Archive

I have many puppets, with many passwords, so it is not easy to log in on them all. I know my passwords, but I ocassionally make mistakes.
Now I have noticed that I can't login on my puppets anymore, because one single mistake on a puppet, adds up to the mistake to the next puppet. That way I can't get into the game anymore. This isn't exactly fair. You force me to stop playing now. I have puppets with easy passwords, but I can't login on those either. This shouln't be implemented on IP adresses but on nations. How am I to continue playing now?

Login
Your IP address has registered several failed attempts to login within a short period. In the interests of system security, you have been blocked from attempting to login again for approximately 45 minutes.

Why not just write them down somewhere? It's not like a bank PIN or anything.

Um... wait 45 minutes and try again?

It's set to IP's to stop people from using brute force tactics against numerous nations. It's faster and easier to stop the IP.

It also forces people, with many puppets, to give them much easier passwords, or give them all the same password. I have over 70 puppets. I am bound to make the three mistakes somewhere, but it also stops me from login in on my main nation, and on the ones with login on auto.

45 minutes is a long time for me.

I already had one nation deleted, because someone else logged in on it. Not again, please.

Just curious, but why would you need 70 nations?

To talk to myself, and agree with myself all the time. It makes the natives think that I have many supporters, so I can become delegate. :p

Why don´t you just use the "save password" option from your browser?

but that would only work for one nation

Yeah, Go..., I mean Co..., uhh, whatever ;)

Write your password on an Excel-file and it should be OK. You can sort, search by name and you can write passwords with 300 letters if you want. Put it password if you fear that it could be used by someone else

it works with the over 50 i have

70 puppets?! Have you tried the shrink? If I had 70 puppets, I'd delete at least 68. No need to bother (us) about the passwords either.

For me it only works on the first nation I login with. After that I have to fill in the password manually. That sux if you have over 70 very busy puppets, all with different passwords. Especially if you make a mistake once in a while :mad:

My puppets have very important jobs.

i'm not refuring to ns auto login im refuring to the auto compleet function in ie
when you log out just clik the ns banner at the top to bring you back to ns without that anoying little pin

"Puppet wanking." Shakes head, walks away...

It's not always 45 minutes; I've had more than 100+ puppets at one point, and during times when I got logged out with the IP banned message, I've been able to relogin in within a 10-30 minute period.
