Arthenon Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Saw some new followers over at Café Naver that I would like to download but you must join. Café Naver request a cell phone number? Nah... no thanks, I don't want to give my cell phone number. If any Korean members here can download and provide a link, I would appreciate it. They have 3 new followers, Ashley Birkin, Carol and Katherine. Thank you, P.S.- Link to checkout pictures. http://kp4068.tistory.com/category/스카이림%20모드 Link to comment
Setekh Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I've heard that they require some other personal details such as a Korean SSN too, it really is quite absurd the lengths they go to, to ensure that only Koreans join. The whole SSN things sounds dubious honestly and it could just be a story made up by some jaded modder, but if they want your mobile number to send you shit like account authentication or to make sure you have a Korean number then... who knows.

JMKAM Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Some Korean MMO's require the SSN as well. Pretty sure it's got something to do with their government not wanting any outside influence on the people of the country but I could be wrong. Link to comment

Setekh Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Long story short, I wouldn't hold your breath for anything on navercafe unless someone happens to distribute it elsewhere. Link to comment

Slaves of Tamriel Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Some Korean MMO's require the SSN as well. Pretty sure it's got something to do with their government not wanting any outside influence on the people of the country but I could be wrong. I believe the main reason for requiring the SSN was accountability, because Korea was one of the first countries where online shopping sites became popular. And as almost every single Korean person has the SSN number, the site developers thought it would be a good idea to use it to check if a given person has been registered to their site before, or to take a legal measure based on the information if something goes wrong. But as the general awareness about privacy has increased over the years (thanks to number of hacking accidents which resulted in large number of SSN numbers are leaked and sold overseas), they recently made a regulation to forbid online sites to collect the SSN numbers. So, if those Naver cafes still require the SSN number, it might be that they are in a transitioning period, as it's very likely that the regulation would not mandate every single sites to overhaul their user databases overnight. Just FYI, as I happened to have some knowledge about Korean society. Link to comment
