Protect Your Toons!
Posted by Sir Max on May 22, 2015 at 2:00 PM
For us Toons to protect Toontown, we need some protection ourselves! Luckily, to help us help you help us all, the Toon Council has come up with the latest in account safety technology: ToonGuard.
If you've logged into Toontown lately, you probably already know what ToonGuard is! ToonGuard is a protection feature that we've implemented to stop people from logging onto your account without your permission. If we detect a login that isn't in the general area of your computer's location, we'll send you an email to make sure it really is you.
Once you've confirmed that computer for ToonGuard, you'll never have to do it again! We will remember your computer's location so that you can login there and everywhere near it -- but don't worry, this location data is only the general location through your computer's IP address. We won't track ya down!
If ToonGuard becomes an annoyance to you, you can shut it off with ease over in your Account Settings. Before you're able to shut it off, however, you'll need to confirm three ToonGuard locations. It can't be an annoyance if you've only used it once or twice!
We're always looking out for the safety of our players over here at Toontown, and you can learn more about ToonGuard right over here on our help page or by contacting Toontown Rewritten Support.
See you in Toontown!

Sounds cool. Will we have an option to reset the confirmation to all computer? That sounds useful if in a specific period of time you log in from public places, and then no longer want the system to "remember" these computers.

I say that this is a great idea for toons trying to be more secure and protective with their accounts.

Good to see some boosts in security. This probably won't annoy me too much because I usually use the same computer.

This is just toontastic! I was worried someone (or a cog) had gotten a hold of my toons. Thanks for the update!

That's great! This is a great idea! Yesterday I tried to log on to Toontown but it said something about "Toongaurd" and I didn't get it. Now I do! Thanks!

Two-step log in is good for security too but I guess some don't even think about their own security, which makes Toonguard good because it guarantees your safety. Thanks Toonguard :)

I've changed my password twice now and someone is still trying to get into my account. I have changed it once more..hopefully no one figures it out again.

Glad that you are doing all you can to protect your fellow players! One of the games I know only tells you that you shouldn't share your account when someone gets hacked without them giving anything away! It's amazing that you are taking hacking into accounts seriously so we can play without worrying about our poor Toons getting deleted :)!

Now that's a smart idea TTR. I think that helps with the hackers who hack into your account. And they try to play on your account. (like deleting your toons, getting rid of high level gags, etc.) Good job.
