whats the big deal about protecting your account with a thousand walls of code and a 14 page password?
you get hacked - you call costumer service, get your account back a day later with a new password and possibly even a reimbursement for the time lost.
You've obviously never been hacked, then. Firstly, it's annoyingly inconvenient (and that's putting it lightly). You log-on to play a little WoW, then find out that you have to wait 3 days before you can play the game because your character has been picked clean. Then there's the fact that you have to go through the hassle of reporting him, making sure to run a virus sweeper to try and get rid of the key-logger (assuming that's how they got your info)... then three days later you FINALLY have your account back up and running, and as you're cleaning-out all the "Item Returned" mails from the mailbox, you realize that they missed a few things. Maybe they were important, maybe they weren't; the point is, they're gone now. For good. Oh, and there is no reimbursement. You got your own stupid ass hacked; it's your fault. Blizzard doesn't owe you anything and you should be happy that they at least restore your character (as well as they can at least).
So yeah, I guess if you don't see all that hassle as a big deal, then fine whatever. The authenticators have always been optional anyway, so feel free to remove any protection from your account.
