Jagex blocks your PIN?

Hey hey.

 

Well with the new update blocking your password, I was wondering if you think Jagex will block you saying your PIN ingame?

 

Surely it couldn't be that hard because all the programming is already there with the passwords.

 

So what do you all think?

 

Will Jagex block your PIN in the near future?

pin is encrypted into the game graphics rather than the scripts i believe, thus for its very hard to be accomplished. especially since each pin button has random number placement on each pin button and that pin buttons number is placed in a different section of that button at random

 

 

 

thus for complicating the entire process :-s

It's going to cause some inconvenience in trading. Since the PIN is solely comprising of numbers..

Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

ya it would be really hard to talk numbers with that blocked out

 

 

 

personally i think they shouldnt have wasted the times with password blocking... they coulda worked on the braclets..

 

 

 

i mean really if you go around saying your pass and pin.. you should get hacked

I don't think so since PIN numbers have ONLY 4 numbers.

 

This would make it extremely inconvenient.

 

e.g.: Your pin is 1337 (Lol)

 

Then you would be like:

 

"Man, that iron mace is 1337!"

 

You appear to be typing your PIN Number.

 

Get what I'm saying?

if you're stupid enough to type your password or PIN into the game, you deserve your account to be stolen.

 

 

 

No, nobody deserves to be scammed or hacked under any circumstances.

There are limits though. Jagex blocking passwords was a good step to preventing people from getting their accounts stolen, and I'm sure it already has prevented at least a few.

 

 

 

But for the bank pin, I say if you know how to put one on (and I'm sure there are people who still don't know how to put one on still) you should be smart enough to not say it aloud, and considering you have to click on numbers to access your bank - I believe you'd have to be a complete idiot just asking for something bad to happen.

 

 

 

Jagex has done enough security updates for awhile, really the only thing that will help these people from getting "hacked" more would be just to get a talking from their parents - because they ain't going to listen to Jagex except when they see the words "Free Player Update."

Hackers, lurers, scammers and mass flamers do...

No. Think about it, if you got "hacked" the hacker would have a way of guessing your pin more easily. Just say each number from 0000-9999, and when the "You have attempted to say your pin..." message comes up, they know which one it is. If it takes too long to say all those pins, then they could easily design a macro that says each number, then checks to see if it was blocked.

Seriously doubt this will happen. As stated before, if they don't have your password, then your bank pin is useless anyway. Also, it would be rather silly to basically stop people from saying certain 4-digit amounts. <.<

So does everyone one go around saying

 

"selling 8256 cowhides!"

 

Normally they say 8k. I never say any 4 digit number in game....

Doesn't matter if everyone goes around saying it, it's a silly concept. Blocking a password, which should be so obscure that it's never said anyway, is one thing. Blocking a bank pin, which is simply a four digit number, is another.
