New Security System

So this was posted on the main EM page as an announcement 10 days ago:

"Lucid has implemented a new security measure that will log anyone out if they try to access your account from an IP you did not sign in on."

My question is does this now mean I can only access my EM account from my house because that's the only IP I ever signed onto EM from? What happens if I move and have to get a new IP address?

if your browser remembers the username and pass it's not much of an inconvenience to log in again imo..


it's sort of bad if you're on mobile and want to spend 30 seconds looking at the forums but your ip address changes every time

No, it just logs you out, means you will need to login with your username and password again, even you click on 'remember me' checkbox.
