Guild Wars 2

Bank PIN!

That’s right, to access your bank you’ll have to enter your 4-digit PIN number. This will help prevent a hacked player from losing what is inside their personal bank, granted they’re smart enough not to share this PIN with anybody.

Furthermore it could be applied to Guild Banks to keep the guild bank from being cleaned out by a hacked account (Guild Leader would pick the PIN and share it with trusted members. It may not prevent a rogue member from stealing, but a hacker shouldn’t know it).

Additionally feature an option to prompt the PIN when attempting to sell or delete high-level items that a hacker may wish to profit off of. I’m sure there’s more that could be implemented as well.

Naturally it is entirely optional and you can choose whether or not you wish to utilize the feature via the Options Menu.

Yes, no, maybe? /bow

Yes
Simple and effective. Can’t really see why not have it. Could always allow people to not have one, but if they lose stuff well, their fault.

You disagree that if this was implemented, and someone chose not to have a pin got hacked, that it’s partially their own fault for losing stuff as the security option was there and they chose not to use it? Interesting.

srry thought you was taking about pre implement not post implement strongly agree deleting other post not try’n to get ppl thinking on how to ruin the game

Also thought that if a player has a keylogger on their machine, it could possibly catch the PIN, so maybe a small graphic of a keypad would pop up and you’d just click on the numbers to enter them.

I like this idea. A single pin # could be used per account and allow you access to any bank….your personal bank or the guild bank.

The guild bank permissions would be set by the Guild Leader and they would choose to require a PIN or not. If you don’t want to use a pin on your personal account, but the guild bank requires one (and it’s the same PIN)….why not use it on your bank too?

Great idea….and no need for multiple PIN numbers.

I’ve seen this done before, and think it is a good idea.
