Jagex Account Guardian

[Mercifull]

Ok I might be a bit premature posting this here but noticed something on the official RuneScape wiki when I accidently clicked on a mods contributions. I noticed that today they have been making a page which currently is titled JagexHidden Testpage1. Now the page is protected which means noone buit Jmods can view it but I was able to decipher some details from looking at the edit history notes. I presume they are busy preparing the article on the wiki for an imminent update.

 

There will be sections entitled:

• How do I disable Jagex Account Guardian?
  
• How can I enable Jagex Account Guardian on my RuneScape account?
  
• What happens if someone steals my password and I have Jagex Account Guardian enabled?
  
• What happens if someone else learns my security questions?
  
• Where can I get more advice about keeping my account secure?
  

The page was created on the 29th August but large chunks were edited on it today. That's sadly about all I can glean from the wiki as the rest of the content is protected. Jmods have alspo been tweaking viewable pages relating to account security and phishing prevention as well over the last few days.

 

Definitive proof that the guardian is being released wednesday? Possibly.

Is this the oft requested 2-step verification system first proposed in 2008?! We'll have to wait and see.

Another large chunk of edits between 13.49 and 14.45. This image has also been uploaded.

 

[Miss Lioness]

I don't see the image =S

[Mylez]

Image isn't working now. Very interesting though!

[SwreeTak]

This certainly seems interesting. I am looking forward to the release of the JAG, it really is about time hacking accounts becomes harder in Runescape. I have myself been a victim to hacking myself a few times. And it really isn't anything funny. So the sooner they release this, the better it is. Great find!

(Mercifull, I can't see your picture either btw)

[Hedgehog]

I think the picture is supposed to be a grey rectangle.

[Mercifull]

The picture was just a 2480 by 3508px grey box

"Now it costs $0.20 to access your account information, ultra secure"

[Mercifull]

From what I can tell from the Recent changes log the page as it stands contains 8765 characters. Bearing in mind that titles use code like ==Title== which adds extra characters to the count and images use code like [[File:Whatever.jpg]] it still comes out to a fairly large page.

 

If it were ONLY letters it would be about the size of this quote.

About the picture: Ah, I understand. I thought it was broken lol :P

For those who are interested, the recent changes page of the official RS wiki can be found here: http://services.runescape.com/m=rswiki/en/Special:RecentChanges

I bet we will have the JAG released either today or tomorrow.

[Sy_Accursed]

Would make sense for it to come early in the month to let us get secure before their new bot detector goes live (assuming that it will go live this month else Botany Bay will be rather quiet) on the basis that with botting more effectively locked down the account sellers/gold sellers are likely to turn to hijacking for their stock.

[Kimberly]

Whatever it is, I sure hope that they learned from google and allowed for landline support. If not, well, then I'm boned because I don't have a cellphone, which is utter bullshit.

Don't worry, I'll get you a cellphone then we can text all day. Luv ya babe xo.

[Alg]

I'd prefer the ability to opt out of it. My cell phone can't do anything other than make calls and I'd rather not have my account tied to a landline.

It'd be interesting if it were SMS and E-Mail only. Also, very, very unforgiving to anyone that didn't have a mobile.

[Kimberly]

If it's email based at all that doesn't really solve the problem.

I'd totally understand that, honestly. Some people aren't comfortable with it. To be honest since it's new for Jagex, I'm not exactly all that comfortable with it either.

[Zerker_Jane]

I thought not having facebook was bad, what kind of recluse doesn't have a cellphone in 2012? It wouldn't be unfair for Jagex to make the assumption that most do.

[Kimberly]

Not having facebook or a mobile is not the sign of a hermit. It's still only around 60% of people in the US who have cellphones. I'd bet cash on the spot that the cellphone ownership for people between the age of 12 through 18 is less than that. That's a big chunk of your customer base to leave out. It's just an overall smart move to allow another option, especially in the US where texting and data plans are ridiculously high compared to other countries.

[Kaur]

US is a 3rd world country. In real countries everyone have cells.

 

Can't wait for the guardian system.

I was talking about first world countries mainly, in the first world parts of America most of them have cellphones.

[Kimberly]

I'm not sure if you're saying the US isn't a first world country, or if you missed completely that my statistics were taken from the US. From 2011, actually.

[Zerker_Jane]

What I meant is I wouldn't expect too many cellphones in the swamps of Louisiana, but in New York city I would expect a lot of them.

[Alg]

So what about those of us without smart phones or the like? :razz:

Reasonable as it may be to assume that many people have cell phones these days, it's not really an excuse to lock the people that don't out of the game, which is why I'm hoping it's voluntary.

[Kimberly]

You can't make the assumption that all US players come from metropolitan areas though.

 

Well I guess you could but it would be horribly wrong.

The US players with the ability to play Runescape typically don't come from the third world parts of the US.
