Are there any beta tester that can tell us how good is it?

Quote:New Feature! - You can now set up a PIN for things like your Bank Account, Safety Deposit Box, and other important places. This is all optional, of course! You can read more about it and set it all up by visiting the PIN preferences page.
I would assume it's basically a password for your bank account and SDB, but only numerical? And probably not stored the same way as your account's password, so a cookie grabber getting your account wouldn't be able to get into your bank or SDB.

How close am I?
I'm not a beta tester, but from what I hear, you can set a PIN that must be entered before you can do the following things:

Take things out of your SDB
Take things out of your shop
Take things out of your gallery
Withdraw money from the bank
Unequip your pet's BD equipment
Disown your pet
Change the e-mail address on your account

I will definitely be setting a PIN for the bottom three. I use my bank/shop/gallery/sdb too much to bother with a PIN there -- it would just be too much hassle, and I feel my account's pretty safe anyway. But in the unlikely event I ever do get cookiegrabbed/hacked, it will be nice to know no one can disown my pets, sell or transfer my BD equipment, or change my e-mail. VERY nice new feature!
I have a friend who is a beta tester and she made a PIN for her BD set as soon as it came out and mysteriously lost it several hours later....

Can it be made to be required for a password change?
If so maybe you could even give your account password to anyone to show off your stuff. Toungue

edit: forget what i said, if you still can post on the boards then letting people into your account = self freeze Ninja
do they still have the code you have to type in after your password when logging in?

i havent needed to log in in over 18 months XD

"BD set" = more than one weapon
"lost it" = lost 1 thing only

He should be referring to the PIN.Toungue
well I think bd set is one, one set, may consist of many items Toungue

lost pin in term of forgetfulnes, or neo just don't recognize his pin ?
Looks like it's out for everyone now:
