this can be done as your are required to log in first so obviously it is your account and if somebody hacked your questions you can't answer them so they must be changed.

then does it mean if they have your password and name they are able to change your recovery question and answers? if it is then recovery questions are not much use.________________________________________________________________________

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, and yes they can. But if they do, it takes 14 days for the questions to become active, meaning you can still recover your account with the old questions for up to 14 days (2 weeks).

Why can recovery questions and answers be changed in runescape without using existing recovery questions and answers?

Recovery Questions are made to allow getting your account back more easy. If you were to answer the answers to your previous recovery questions, especially if your password was recently changed, and the access IP of your account was different than normal at the time it was changed, your Recovery Questions will still allow you to get your account back. ________________________________________________________________________ does it mean if they have your password they can change your recovery questions and answers without knowing the question and answers? thanks a lot, before i thought if others have your password they could get your account. ________________________________________________________________________ Yes, however, this is for good purpose and it works just fine: For example Your account gets hacked, the hacker changes the password then the recovery questions You go, try to log in, and fail You go to recover account You put in the recovery questions and password from right before he hacked you, as well as any other information you can (this is why knowing your old passwords is important) The game will not, at this point automatically give your account back, however the system registers that your answers would have worked previously A Jagex Moderator surveys your answers and etc, then looks at your account, he finds that YOUR PASSWORD AND QUESTIONS WERE CHANGED ON A DIFFERENT IP ADDRESS THAN YOUR NORMAL ONE, as well as the account has only been played on that other IP address since then Your account gets returned to you Hacker's IP is monitored, and his account history is checked, if he did anything that could have been bad, he may easily get banned (or any account which regularly plays on the IP)


You want to set a recovery question?

Recovery questions are highly recommended as they add an extra layer of security to your account. If your account is compromised you will have a better chance of getting your account back as fast as possible. Recovery questions should be questions that you will remember, if you think you might forget the answers right them down on a piece of paper and put it in a safe place.
