Get rid of email verification.

a related observation:

I notice that after logging into this community forum using email verification, I’m automatically logged out after some relatively short period of time (may 1/2 hr or so?) even if I leave my browser window open.

Then to log in again I of course have to go through the 2 step verification email thing, again. This makes even just using this forum SUPER annoying. I participate in a number of other forum websites regularly, and all of them can remember I’ve already logged in and will let me stay so for more than a few minutes or hours without re-logging in on the same device.

I get in general why 2FA is a good thing but this is taking it to an extremely annoying level when we’re talking about just wanting to use the community forum. Can at least this forum be fixed so it remembers validated 2FA logins on a given device for a reasonable amount of time?

As it stands, this is a very customer-unfriendly “feature”.
