Steps to Setting up 2 step


1. Login to your in game account and type ::2step

2. This will open a browser with a QR code http://courtingthelaw.com/wp-content/uploads/QR-code-example.jpg


3. Scan this barcode either with the google authenticator app or with the chrome extension


4. This will now show up with your Redemption username and a 6 digit code which will change every 30 seconds


5. Go back to your game client and type in the 6 digit code into the open chatbox window


6. Congratulations! If you followed the steps above and entered the 6 digit code correctly your account will be secured with 2step authentication


What does this mean?



2 step authentication means that you must have access to the code to login from a new IP address. It is by far the most effective way of securing your account (we have not yet had a single verifyable report of a player being hacked who had ::2step enabled)

Should you try to login to your account from a new IP address you will be prompted to enter your 6 digit code off your app or chrome extension. l This number goes in the 'auth box' to below of where you enter your username and password (see Auth:123456)
