i was just logging in to coh2 and i had typed wrongly my username and i see this message pop up "this account does not exist". i think that a message indicating the existence or non existence of usernames open up doors for hacking. and its considered a bad practice in programming. i think that information should not be so readily available. and besides i found it useless as the message appeared after i had typed my password and pressed enter. so i get the message twice. a simple your username and password does not match would be better and more secure than "this account does not exist".
this is just an observation that i want to point out. nothing more. have fun lads.
too much info in the login(this account does not exist.)
