Dumping Password

since Seed is no longer around to restore your dumped units and change your password, wouldnt it be nice if you needed to enter a password before dumping units?

like, when you make your account, you enter your account name, password, and trashcan password.

then, even if someone figures out your account password, all they can do is lower your stats

not only that, but i've known people that play with 2 BR and 2 Knights grey because they accidentally dumped a knight. that could have been avoided with this feature.

the only real downside i see is forgetting your dumping password when you run out of room off-field

...but in that situation who's the stupid person?

Yeah thats the only problem. But hey to prevent the dumping password why not just create a hard password no one guesses.

But then again there are people who like to "share" their accounts and then they hacked. This is where your idea applies.

Its good idea.

Mm, good idea but your downside is true. I bet I'd forget mine easily seeing as sometimes it takes months before you have to trash a unit, most forget.

This seems like a very good idea. I know many people say the downside is that if you forget your password, your screwed. One way to prevent this is, DONT FORGET YOUR PASSWORD. Pretty simple, just write it down. Anyways great idea hope it happens.

The REAL downside of this is: Seed pretends to be not there, so nothing can be done <.<

The fact that seed would need to be here to implement it kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?
