If instead of the image verification a screen popped up asking you to insert a 4 digit PIN code to access your account (which is clicked, not typed "HAHA keyloggers you stink, can't track mouse clicks) which the dialog box is randomly re arranged per click of a number so it's not always in numerical order, and you insert a PIN code which is selected when you create you account, then hacking would be 99.999999' % impossible.
here's a screen shot of what the PIN screen COULD look like...
JOMYAX WE LOST OUR PINS CAN U SEND EM US PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
and of corse they wont lol

NOTHING is unhackable There are ALWAYS ways around it
they dont have to back the pins up ( save them somewhere ) they could just make it like agein in runescape if u forgot it u wait like a week or so i dunno forgot xD and when u log on after a week u can change it back to whatever u want it.
edit: btw i played runescape too but i like the idea would probs work good for sro players
Isnt 4 digits of PIN code easier to brute force than 7-8 alpha-numeric characters of Image verification code?
Being hacked is due to lack of your self security. If in your pc, there was already a keylogger, the hacker only needs 10000 tries to break your code
I dont think u HAVE to click something to be able to do something. Because I believe that it's not impossible to inject a code, a packet to a window without touching a keyboard or a mouse.
Moreover, image verification is something RANDOM. So it's hard, or even impossible, to brute force than something that is FIXED like your own PIN code

Image Verification does nothing for account security, just "attempts hopelessly" to stop bots.

No it's not "just 'attempts hopelessly' to stop bots". How can it stops if the bot is online? JM wont do something "in hope" but has its reason

Image Code Verification is stupidest thing someone can put in game. Its stop auto creating accounts that spam random commercial messages into forums,but use it game like Silkroad OMG LOL.
Theres very easy way to make auto-program insert correct image code,but always botter can log in by hands and leave program to play on.
PIN system all the same,just another thing that wont help. They need better general safety system or update GG with newest thing so it work. Then all account and data will be safe.
Right.. the only thing this will do is make it even worse to log in during the day... 80 percent of people saying they got hacked is actually them saying there info to someone... what stops them from saying there pin to em too?

+1000
it will make 50 times worse to log in and JM will cock it up somehow
but it will decrease the chance of you being hacked
4 digit number combo 10 numbers
10000 possible combinations
