Hello
one question: why do i have to enter my login and passord when i just want to read something like this:
http://myeve.eve-online.com/buddy/raffle.asp
Would be very nice to be able to read such general information without entering my precious password. |

yeah, how much stuff on the site needs the user/pass is dumb. I mean... why would the videos section need a login? Wouldn't you want prospective players to see the awesomeness? After all, thats why the vids are there: to get people to start playing.
edit: that ones been fixed. I feel like an idiot now

Thought for a minute there that you were as lazy as me and were about to complain about having to enter your password every time the eve client loads, somehow still manage to forget it

Offtopic - there is a way for EVE to remember your passwords you know?

No, actually... I don't. I can't get the client to remember my password at all.

The client used to save the password if, iirc, a checkbox was checked- but apparently this increased the hackability and passwordsniffability or something like that so the devs took it out.
Hadn't realised there was still a line in the prefs.ini though. Handy, but by now I have been scared into not using it

Go into your game folder, then cache, and open prefs.ini. Change a couple of the lines to say the following:-
networkAdvanced=1
savepasswords=1
That should do the trick

A while ago my account had its password reset cos of compromised accounts. So i just made a 90 letter password made up of letters, numbers and wierd synbols, impossible to remember. I can't be bothered to change it so everytime i log into eve i have to open the word document and copy + paste it into the client.

Just understand that any application can read from that file in a Windows system. Personally I think its OK to type the password every time... I dont relog that often.

True, but the password is encoded before it is saved in prefs.ini, the actual password isn't saved.

Don't know, but my 9 digit alpha-numeric password is saved as an 18 digit jumble.
