After reading this recent forum post regarding allegedly bad GOG account security practices:

WARNING! MASSIVE SECURITY RISK ON GOG!

Obviously nobody wants people to be inadvertently logged into their account due to security bugs in the website, and I think most people wouldn't want to be logged into someone else's account either.

But in the name of silly fun...

If you were to accidentally get logged into someone else's GOG account, would you log out immediately no matter whose account it was?

Or would you secretly hope it would accidentally log you into a specific person's account, and if so whose account would you hope for and why?

What if anything would you do?

These questions are asked in a humorous way, to see what kinds of funny responses people might come up with as a sort of forum game type thing, like the "why should the person above you be banned" thread. Yes, I'm just being silly because why not. :)

TinyE: I could make some of his posts less trollish and also post silly pics without fear(to be honest I love a good numbe of his posts including some of the silly ones)

Those who troll me(legit troll not just joking): I'd make them say something silly like I am a big poopy head or something similarly childish just for the laughs, or at least try to act like a decent human being to make them look more civll.

Blues: I would answer all the questions I had knowledge to answer that GOG staff miss in threads.

TheEnigmaticT: Because I miss him and seeing his familiar "face" here would be nice.

Any famous celeb(if they had a GOG account): Just to pretend to be someone famous for a day.

=================================
More serious/truthful reply: If I was ever logged into someone's account i'd likely report it to GOG and sign out, as i'd expect anyone logged into my account to do.
1. Tough question, hmm i would probably "borrow" some offline installers then log out forever and contact support.

2. I tried to recreate the issue using my own mobile but to no avail and for whose account i would hope for, probably yours or TinyE since i'm interested to find out how many dirty games you two collect, anime hentai stuff like huniepop and other VN's.

3. As i stated, contact support after borrowing the best stuff.
Hi skeletonbow.

For the sake of having a joke between us, I would say the most interesting accounts to get logged in by mistake, would be the ones which belong to moderators!
;D
Imagine the sheer possibility of unleashing chaos on a massive scale, banning people all around just because you dislike them or disagree with them, locking their threads and deleting their comments, posting insane stuff on blues, fooling other moderators pretending you are one of them and going crazy on them, and finally deleting the said account, after having experienced how a moderator account works in comparison to a simple user's, in all its splendor.
Oh the possibility for abuse of power and enforcement of will! Priceless!
:P
Of course I am joking and all the above would cause great damage to the forums and the persons behind the accounts, so it's all the more important that this security breach is patched up soon. But meanwhile, I would take full advantage of such a gift to weed out the community of certain pests, whose names there is no reason to mention, since their infestation of the forums is well-known.
:)

Cheers.

I would contact support about it and log out, and then contact support about it again from my own account to confirm to them that it's the same person writing. I have no reason for, or interest in, accessing someone else's account.

Boring answer, no?

Why "borrow" anything that way? It's like breaking into someone's house to steal stuff you can also find outside their house already.

Typical boring high-trust Goody-two-shoes Scandinavian.

Needless to say, I stand with you.

If given the chance, I would probably have a little fun with tinyE's, shmerl's, adamhm's, or some blue's account. Perhaps even with dtgreene's.

I thought this wasn't supposed to be taken seriously and that you can bend the truth a little but i guess not.

Elvis Presley. Man...he really is into this weird and quirky Ultimate fishing simulator. Did not expect this.
He also seemed to enjoy some Brutal Legend.

So, i guess he never left the building. He is vital and gaming.

I saw it was silly, I was just commenting that technically one could borrow those games without such work done and save themselves some effort. o.0

I would probably post cats and donkeys. Or if it were a blue account, I'd make a thread where I threaten to ban tinyE if he doesn't post five new donkey pics over a couple weeks. I AM SO EVIL.

It's possible I'd also buy them a game or two. Poniehup for anyone who doesn't have it, then something cute for the rest.

With dtgreene's account, it is plausible that I would post some of my favorite music with electric guitars. In the metal thread, or "what are you listening to now"? Idk.

Thanks for the idea, now I would probably wanna get my hands on morolfs account and change the avatar text to "free speech moderate" and then laugh maniacally while I log out.
