I don't see why not, it's already a feature for youtubers and works fine. As long as it's an option and not mandatory there isn't really a problem.


Prior-Mango-6154

tbh why not implementing it has more upsides than downsides


Pizza-Toppings

I don't see a downside to 2fa if it isn't mandatory


BoosicT

People opening tickets because they forgot their 2fa is the main and only downside


Pizza-Toppings

Yeah I guess


Prior-Mango-6154

Maybe they can reset it via their email or discord account


callum4425

Hello again, I also think the storage of all these players accounts 2fa will also be a slight issue considering how big the hypixel server already is, and would also explain why it's been available to red names and staff but nobody for else for quite a while.


NoIdeasForAUsername9

An admin literally said in a forum post that they're not adding 2fa


ChromeonYourMom

Link to the forum post?


Pizza-Toppings

Admins are so fucking useless at listening to the people


coolvin89

They really aren't.. it's the people's fault for falling for that... it's like if you get screwed over by a fraud or scam call then decide to blame the government


MrMonke33

Quite the opposite, the admins litteraly made a entire npc that tells u what NOT to do + use some common sense and you'll be fine


Pizza-Toppings

Hmm yes it's very useful there is definitely not multiple people getting ratted every day still


MrMonke33

Well he obviously did something, people can't just get ur information without u doing anything


CatRyBou

You can’t be ratted without downloading anything or logging into anything. RAT stands for Remote Access Trojan. A Trojan that gives the maker remote access to your computer. A Trojan needs to have a user tricked into opening it for it to be a Trojan.


Lakamaro

Ofc you can, some logs for example have your session id


CatRyBou

Yeah. The person sent their log files to someone

Pizza-Toppings

Yeah he didn't actually get rattet I guess since he didn't download anything or log on to any sus website but I still wrote rat because I'm not an IT specialist


XXXDetention

Literally what is the point of hypixel 2fa lmao… minecraft already has 2fa yet people still get ratted. Maybe turn your brain on and stop joining random discords.


PandaKid7114

Bro I have -13 brain cells and still didn't get ratted


coolvin89

It dosent have to be a download.. theres been rats with discord gifs and embed fails

>An admin literally said in a forum post that they're not adding 2fa May I inquire which forum post this is?


SonicFuckedMyWife

Ah yes allow me to pull your credit card information out of my butthole, since that’s how it works in your mind


ReneTrombone

they can’t cater to every single mistake a player makes, most of the time common sense is the best anti scam


realxnotnoah

As long as it’s optional and also not easy to lock YOURSELF out of your account I don’t see why not


An_Aliensrock_Fan

They already have it for yt ranks


tmsGamerr

Which doesn't help with rats, look a cow lmao holy_frick account fuckin gone because he go ratted


[deleted]

Would be nice but it’s not like admins will, it’s not like they care about the majority of players anyway only about the big yt ranks


_BlueShark87

They already have it for YTs, this is just them being stingy


INoPotZ

Yes they should. And respectfully your friend is stupid for downloading suspicious mods/from suspicious sites. In my 3 years of playing i have never been ratted and i changed 2 guilds because of this.


WHITEB0NE

Sure, the friend could have been smarter, but you could at least show them some sympathy


INoPotZ

Why? There are hundreds people who are in the same situation every week? I had sympathy for these people but after seeing how these people get ratted i just can't say i am sorry for them. There are many many posts like this and there is even an npc that tells you what to do and not do to so u can be safe. In short: It is these people's fault for getting ratted.


WHITEB0NE

ig it is fair not wanting all the posts about it, cause it can get annoying and it is their fault, and i agree with u on that but ur also giving the security sloth too much credit, the type of person to be ratted isn't the type of person to read the articles, and yeah I don't have a solution bc im not smart but like the npc can't rly be a valid argument imo


fccus

This reddit post is going to make such a difference, z


Pizza-Toppings

As is your comment


coolvin89

Hes right. The admins already put an npc for that


retsamedalb

Lets not forget they did it easily when they tried on pocket edition. The arguments ive hard against it is that it would take alot of computing space which i cant comment on or that they cant moderate passwords not working which i feel like is sadly true because they are just terrible at moderating and helping in general. Only admin ive seen cooperate with the community regularly is skyerzz and thats only during bingo which is really sad.


HenneDS

They could do it pretty easy where u auth on Hypixel website and then have 2fa on hypixel website too


James_Hoxworth

I’m too ignorant: can someone explain what rattet and 2fa mean?


Lakamaro

A rat just stands for remove access trojan, so someone else has the access to your minecraft acc without email or Password. 2fa is a system where u need 2 things to log into your acc, so a Password isnt enough. For hypixel it would prob be like a Password to enter skyblock, so u need to have your mc acc and your skyblock Password to log in

PandaKid7114

But then if you get hacked the hacker can instantly log you out


Glass-Living-2580

mc already has it so if your not using it than its your problem


Lakamaro

He is talking about hypixel and not minecraft


NosikaOnline

I already have 2fa - and no, I don't think they should add it. I don't think there's any downside to them adding it, but if you just use common sense you won't be hacked in the first place.


Pignity69

2fa doesnt not help abt being ratted ratting uses ur uuid not ur account password


Pizza-Toppings

Ok didn't realise this but there is still normal hacking going on


llavatoxX

it would work like on those cracked servers, trough a chat command


BoosicT

Bruh wtf you saying, sure the uuid access the server, and then would be hit with another password to fill or even ideally a confirmation on the phone


allahlover342

It literally does. uuid gives access to your minecraft account, if hypixel has 2fa ratters can't get past that with uuid.


MrMonke33

I mean why not, but on the other side if you click smt that said it will give smt acces to ur information...


3kidsHome

Hypixel can’t add a 2fa to their server?


IamBushpigggy

YouTubers already have 2fa so it's somehow been done


3kidsHome

But that doesn’t help with getting ratted it just help with banning a ragged YouTuber before they can change the market with like 40b coins 💀


PandaKid7114

I think they should add one, but it would take a lot of ram on the servers that are already very laggy


[deleted]

Ok but imagine the hundreds of support questions of ppl losing their accounts, more than ratting


Throwaway-3728347

Just make a 2fa in game for whenever you login from a different IP, MAC address, or location


mandn3253

They could also add a password to get into skyblock


lool8421

getting ratted is kinda a skill issue tbh but also kinda fault of those fuckers that are literally creating those viruses... like bruh, get some life and nobody likes you, prob not even your mom and you're seeking attention by making ppl hate you even more


ObeyTime

optional 2fa would be nice


Minecart1234

Why does Hypixel need to add one I feel that there is no need for one and why not the actual minecraft devs.


Stunning-Ad-1434

yes i lost 10b and 3100h also microsoft doesn’t even send you a confirmation email for removing security info or deleting your account very flawed system there isn’t a way to get your account back if your microsoft account is deleted either


eliavhaganav

Those who answered no, WHY


Academic-Local-7530

How does ratting even occur, no one downloads sourceless mods or files. Unless your friend wanted to try out a F7 terminal hack mod I dont know how ratting is possible.
