When i made my accounts i dont recall making a SW..
because usernames and passwords were auto-created by Goa.

How is that handled here?

is it true that as long as you have access to your email they cannot jack your account, since they cant create a masterpassword for the goa-account site?

thanks for explaining to me if anyone wants to :) im kinda paranoid on my account security /grin

on the usa servers you create you own username, password and "secret word" wich is basicly you proof of owning the account.

but no secret word here,
Seems accounts are directly attached to the email-adres it was created with.

Well with your email you can change your password.

so i guess your email is kinda the "security" you have.

once you loose the ability to read the email you gave on account creation you cant change the password anymore right?

yups, when i login to may master account, there is an option to change the game-password.

but its generated, not self-chosen. and send to the email adres again.

Actually you can order a new subscription password. It works followingly:

1) Enter subscription area and choose forgotten password.
2) You will be asked the email address that you defined in your personal information. Type that in.
3) An email with a link to new password page is sent to this email address. This link is only valid for one hour and it might be only accessible once (not positive about the latter but I've verified that it has time limit). When you follow the link the new subscription password is displayed.

You can't define the password yourself.

I hope this helps. ;)
