Remove SMS Password Reset from the website

Dont really know if this goes in Bugs or Features, so I’ll post it here.

SIM Swapping is a big issue recently plauging the Roblox developer community…

Until just now, I though Roblox couldn’t really do much about it given how it’s out of their control, however, on Roblox, its possible to reset your password using SMS.

I am more than certain that this is the method that these attackers have been using so why it hasn’t been removed is beyond me, considering how SMS verification is insecure.

If you need something to do to protect your account, remove your phone number from your account.

At the very least, an option should be available to restrict recovery with SMS.
