Frog has an extensive list of extremely satisfied

this exact feature for four years and counting. As
you can see from Roy's testimonial above, they
credit this AMS feature with making Frog completely
self-supportive and not requiring any intervention
on their part to deal with password management
issues. A casual scan of our webmaster testimonials
page will also bear this out.
Our contention is that a valid paying member should
NEVER be blocked from accessing a members area for
ANY amount of time because a hacker compromised
their password. To compound the problem, it could
occur when a webmaster is sleeping or away. AMS
works 24/7 to ensure that the member has uninterrupted
access to a site and hackers have none. This minimizes
damage control and cancellations that would be risked
from a member being blocked out.
Experience speaks for itself and its hard to detract
from four years of experience from a multitude of
webmaster clients.

I happen to agree with this. When a password is compromised, a new one should automatically be e-mailed out, or txt/sms'd out to the user, explaining that his/her password has been compromised & has been changed.
An hour of account deactivation on a (dating site) in my experience = a chargeback.
Next question is...when do you guys plan on implementing a cell phone txt messaging system, or instant messaging (icq/aim/yahoo/msn) for members to receive new passes, now that e-mail is slowly but surely dying out?
