As a result of growing account security concerns within the online gaming community, Square Enix is proud to introduce the Square Enix Security Token. The token greatly increases the security of PlayOnline accounts by allowing users to log on by using a constantly changing one-time password that is displayed on the screen. The Square Enix Security Token will be available for purchase through the PlayOnline Viewer in the near future for those who wish to take advantage of the added security this optional service provides. As a special incentive, each Square Enix Security Token will come with an exciting in-game bonus which may just prove indispensible during your many adventures in Vana'diel!

Information on the Security Token's release date and price, as well as further details regarding the in-game bonus, will be announced at a later date.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Although, I'd be sorely tempted to go with one of the other 2 Neptune pcs over Haidate. >.>;

I'm buying it.

I don't care what the in-game item is, the security it provides to the account i've spent hundreds of hours working on is priceless to me.

And foolish me, I thought my $15.95 a month was paying for the security of my account. My mistake. :roll:

Oh, well, I do see what you mean.

It's too bad they don't have the resources to provide it free to the current subscribers as a one time promo, and then just have future subscribers purchase one.

It does seem odd to me that we have to pay for an extra security layer, but oh well--better safe and $5-12 poorer than sorry.

As kats pointed out WoW added this I think about a year ago and charged for it, and most account hijackings are done through means outside of SE's control. Seems perfect;y reasonable to charge for it

Obviously what they mean is: To be implemented in June 2017.

But the real achievement in this thread?? We are bearing witness to Borne actually posting more than once a month.
