You know you make a new account and then someone ha.cks your account and you lose everything? I think that there should be an option to share an item around an IP. This option will be called 'USB'. Under that popup in the Catalog that asks you if you are sure you want to buy that item, there will be this checkbox called 'USB' and if you check it, USB will be activated. Also, in Account, you can manager which IP's to USB to. So when you switch to an alt, you will have your stuff all back. And in case of a ha.ck, the items will still be on the accounts with the IP. So when you switch to an alt, all your stuff will be there!

Support?

Also, please read the whole thing before no/supporting. I don't want you think that you can carry an item around on a USB, or it being a gear idea or that Roblox gives you a free real USB when you buy something.

You mean a backup?

I like this idea, but I'm not sure if its practical...

Yes, it's a backup. And yes, I am serious.

You can get quite tired getting into lots of accounts removing the same accounts. And also you may be able to get USB items back if they are missing (and another person on the IP has it). And IP's and ha.ckable, so that gets an advantage, too.

@rtc That's kind of not what I meant. I meant that you can tick a checkbox before you buy someone to USB it. And you can unUSB or USB it later if you want, too.

I agree, but it should be a code saved locally. Some people have dynamic IP, that changes a lot.

An IP address cannot be used to identify you. As in, no. Using an IP address wont work for this. Not only are many IP addresses dynamic but you CAN choose your IP address. If someone else has it but they're not using (say their computer is turned off) you can take that IP address (if you take the IP while it's in use you'll get an error).

But the biggest problem with it is that many IP addresses are dynamically assigned (they don't stay with one person unless you purposely pay to have a static IP address).

Oh. Well then, USB option should only be for a server that ROBLOX uses to identify you. The person who starts the server get to pick the people who get the items. And you'd need a private code to configure THAT option.

All a bit technical, but the result could be pretty good.

I don't think accounts get 'hacked' very easily... It's more like you gave your pw away somewhere...

An idea might be to change it every day.

But in case someone else does have your pw, support

I get a feeling this can cause hacks and exploits.

When I was a kid I used to think there was a werewolf in my park.

Kids brains are really stupid.

Hmmmm... this could put Merely's items in risk of hacking. Are you talking about saving it to the computer or a USB out of the computer? Semi- Support if you are because it might accidentally crash a computer or a USB, losing all the data.

@those saying it's hard to get hacked

If you ever login to Roblox from a public network consider yourself hacked already. As it's very easy to do a MITM attack and get on other people's accounts (for anything not using https). Which is why in my post (http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=90020688) I suggested using https. I myself have managed to get on people's Roblox accounts doing a MITM attack (people at my school play Roblox so I was able to get on their account; it only works if they're on the same network however, but once they're on there I can get on their account).
