With the PlayNC master accounts and all that, its hard to keep track of things. I took a 6 month(about that) break from guild wars, and forgot my master and password for it. I cant change my email address (that i dont use anymore), and i cant change my password, except for a reset. They need to have the old options back, not the extra baloney you have to deal with. I dont mean just the old options, they should be buffed. Have 3-5 questions, regarding you personally, like the plaync accounts currently have. Things like, mothers maiden name etc. After answering these, you should have to enter a previously used password, then gain access to your settings. If someone logged onto your account (considering they arent your best friend), they wouldnt be able to guess your questions, and your password. The old system was horrid, once you get on an account you have complete control over it. (almost.) I myself, as well as others i believe, would like the old options back. Suggestions? Yes? No?

This is exactly why I kept my account in the old format. I can make all changes in-game through the options menu.

The whole "connect your account to PlayNC" seems too sketch to me.

I think there should be an option to switch back, but it looks like once PlayNC has you, they keep you.

Yeah its unfortunate, they say it makes you more secure, but if you forget your stuff with your key in it, your f'ed. Im sketchy using the online store because of this, not knowing if someone has access to my master, which i doubt but better safe than sorry if you ask me.
