email confirmation on dollarciding

I'll definitely *SIGN* for this one.
It should be easy to implement, the system apparently is set up for sending other types of confirmations.

I suggest you figure out how your computer is being taken over, or who is doing this in your house. There is a confirmation to cancel the account, and that is more than enough.

And make it show the IP. ""blah.hostname.net" has requested to "dollarcide" your dslreports.com account. To confirm this, please visit ...."

reply to OLDweirdal
*sign*, *sign*, *sign*, and *sign*. Did I mention that I *sign*?

I thought that fatness fixed your account? Your e-mail says not public now. Edit: nevermind, I checked your other posts and see that it keeps getting done.

Also give you a chance to change your mind after thinking about it for a few minutes. Stick a five or ten minute delay on the email...

Who is to say they can't access your e-mail if they are already accessing your DSLR account?

What if they changed your e-mail address before removing your account?

You said in the past that you changed your DSLR password, and they still removed your account. How could they guess your new password? How many times has it happened now?

I'm trying to get to the root of your problem, this e-mail confirmation would only be a bump in the road if they are able to get your new password for your account.

Anyway, I hope you get the problem fixed, but for how many times it happened in a short period, after you had changed your password multiple times, it still happened again.

$25 per hour.
$35 per hour if you want to watch.
$45 per hour if you want to help.
$75 per hour if you tried to fix it, and failed.
If your too lazy to help yourself before asking, you don't deserve any help.

thanks for the concern
this isnt a solution to my problem, i know but it would be a good idea nonetheless
if you have any suggestions for me there is a topic here:

I'm having a hard time figuring out any downside to this suggestion. An email saying "Your account has been removed from BBR in line with your request at [time] from [IP address]. If there is a problem with this please contact fatness@dslr.net immediately."

No information would be provided that is not already provided by the site (your login screen already shows you the last different IP you logged in from). And it gives direct contact information for me, if it was not you who removed the account.

I'd oppose the e-mail being a form of confirmation, though, because many will go unreplied, and we will end up with multiple accounts in the "hey I dollarcided but didn't get removed" category.

relax.

That's a good point about the e-mail not being an actual confirmation. Would there possibly be a way when someone does remove their account that the system could send an e-mail, as you stated above and the account stay active for 72 hours (for example)?

It just seems logical to me that as long as we get a "join" notification email, we probably ought to get a "quit" notification as well. I like fatness ' solution. *Sign* to that!
