Schedule Maintenance

March 6, 2013 at 5:54 PM

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE - Egg Cave's main authentication system will be receiving an overhaul on Monday, March 11 at 4:00 pm ECT. This will cause an automatic site-wide log out; your account may be inaccessible for up to 30 minutes while we perform this maintenance.

This maintenance will improve the way Egg Cave encrypts and stores passwords. We will also be implementing optional security questions that you can set up on your account to help verify your identity in the event that your account is lost or stolen.

Thanks for helping make Egg Cave one of the most secure web sites on the planet!

Hooray for maintenance. 😊

Orderedchaos • 6 Mar 2013, 7:03 PM

@colette It actually happens a lot less than people think. In most cases it's people being careless with their password.

Meteoroid • 6 Mar 2013, 7:26 PM

@colette @orderedchaos And even then it's not really hacking. I don't think Egg Cave has ever been directly hacked. Which is a good thing!

Maintenance is always a good thing. So many social sites have had security leaks lately.
