Bug Description

Currently, the online gaming password is buried deep within the Profile Page. May be we should move it to the front page's top right corner (below or instead of the playtime scheduler).

Also, double checking the entered passwords with two input fields would be nice.

And I just noticed that the label has one colon to many:

Having it on the edit profile page directly will fit?

How about joining the e-mail settings and the gaming password into 1 tab called "Account Settings"? I see it like that a lot on other websites, so people should be able to find it there.

If you don't agree, #3 is fine for me too.

I guess "Account Settings" could lead into misunderstanding, because: The website account or the Metaserver account?

Since we have the 'Messages' in the loginbox, we can remove it from the tabs on the profile page. So the profile page isn't plastered with tabs. Same goes for the playtime scheduler?

But, in general, there should be some benefits when one uses a password for online gaming...

How about you just move the new tab next to the e-mail settings, so we wont alternate between content and settings tabs.

Also, the e-mail settings could be called "Notification settings"? I thought it was to change your e-mail address when I made the comment above.

I have renamed "E-Mail settings" like you suggested. It's much better :-)

But i am not confident with the sentences above the input fields, mainly because the link to 'Game Help Multiplayer' is hard coded. Store it inside the database or inside settings.py is a bit overkill, imho.

Any suggestions? IMHO it should be clear that

1. the password is only for the game (not on any place inside the website)
2. where inside the game it is used
3. that it is NOT stored in clear text
4. benefits?

How is this keeping you from fixing up the text that you newly added to wlggz/templates/wlggz/edit_ggz.html in the merge request?

If it's just about the labels for the input fields, if they are hard-coded, I don't think it's worth the effort. The explanation text needs to be fixed though.
