It's an atrocious system, really. Why penalize someone for not being able to properly put in their password for days at a time? You're doing it for "safety" or whatever you want to call it, but it goes both ways on this.
If person A has a secure password, no one will be able to guess it.
Person B thinks otherwise. He attempts continuously and fails.
Person A is now banned for too many fail attempts.
Person B is too.
Person B can just try again when the ban is gone.
Person A suffers for having a good password.
Isn't there some sort of way we can either:
Repeal bans easier [I sent a petition in order to have this done, not even a response to the e-mail]
or
Send an e-mail verification it's you logging into your account after a ban has occurred. Some sort of notification stating "Someone is in attempt to access your account, due to multiple incorrect log-ins, the system has issued a ban. Click here [link] to repeal and log in." or something of the sort.
It's malarkey, really.
2-cents.
