Why did only one need an email code?

[Meyfei]

there was more down below. i switched to a new vpn though got tired of d/cing all the time randomly.

But the SoftEither has like a static IP or some shiz that dont require a code constantly (but also i notice that static ip changed too?) weirdness but hey it worked for the mode part.

As been said before, the email authentication appears to work with your computer's mac address or something. I've moved and changed ISPs but used the same computer the past 2 years, never needed an authentication. Stuff like Guild Wars 2 forces me to authenticate every time my IP changes.

i don't recall saying anything about authentication because the JP mmos ive played that do have more security well never sent authentication emails they just banned me for to many different IP log ins

There's hardly any relation between Authentication email each time your IP/computer changes and hacking proof authentication system.
If a crackers gets your PSO2 IDs, he/she'll have access to your mail too. And most of the methods used to gather people's passwords allow to sniff ALL of them, not just your PSO2 creds.

Actually, it has been demonstrated many times that an IP address should NEVER be used as an authentication factor, unless there's a special setup involved.
Machine based, even though still weak, is already more relevant because changing IP regularly is normal, when changing computer regurlarly could be more suspicious.
