    The DomiNations World Estate Sale has been suspended indefinitely due to a newly discovered technical limitation. We plan for it to return once the issue has been resolved.

Repeated Login Prompts

Since the linking of accounts to Dominations World, which I'll likely never use, I keep getting login prompts to enter my credentials. I'm playing on an android device as I always have. Why? I get it for logging in to Dominations World on PC. Why on an android device? Should I be afraid that Chinese, Russian or Iranian hackers are trying to steal my Dominations account?

I have the same on iOS. I need to re-connect every 2-3 weeks for no reason. Why is that?

Prior to this release I had my 7 main accounts all linked to DomiNations World. Now one of those 7 is iOS only. Can I get the base back on DW?

We're testing fixes now. Hopefully after your next login, it won't have to refresh for 60 days.
I'm pleased to hear that you're working on it. But this is just a small plaster on a gaping wound.
The game must start without repeated logins. You are not a bank. Unlike email accounts, you are also not a critical point of digital identity.
That's the reason why the session should last much longer than 60 days. How about 7300 days? Then we'll be protected from login prompts for the next 20 years.
Or how about if the timer resets every time we enter the game. Then only inactive users would be logged out after 60 days.

60 days is much better than every few days. Take the win and move on.

Well..seeing all the money that people are spending on this game, you could consider it as a bank where you do deposits…

Then we should reduce the logout time to a maximum of 10 minutes and require a second factor for each login, e.g. authenticator app, hardware token, email with confirmation link, ...
Otherwise our investment would not be sufficiently secure

Unfortunately it's not deposits we're making - we're investing in BHG. As investors we should be getting a better return.

Is this related to the above thread?

I've tried about 17 different ways to get this timer to go away and short of switching to that account within 24 hours it keeps popping up.

Please help!

That's the timer until you can create a new base, but it shouldn't be displaying on a selectable base. Do you have a screenshot of that entire window to better see the context of how that countdown got there?

I figured it out... its because I was on a multi account email address... once i logged into the above on my android tablet the timer went away.

Thanks for the quick response!
