RE: X-Post from ThreeSpeak community - no, you do not need to give 3speak your Active Key (directly)

For one of many reasons, we are deprecating Hivesigner extension, will solely focus on improving web portal. Your concerns are real and there are certain trade offs and solutions. Of course, that's why always use apps you trust, posting authority/key doesn't allow token related operations so it is safer from financial hacks but social hacks (posting/voting) might happen if you share your keys or apps get hacked. With OAuth2 Hivesigner uses, we are able to mitigate some forms of app hacks. In short, better be safe than sorry, always take care of your keys
