it is a private code that TB staff has pmed to each member, you will need to know this 4 digit code if you want to change pass/email/passkey.


Should you enter a wrong pincode 3 times in a row you will be locked out of your account until you can contact an administrator or other staff member.

http://<tb>/confirm.php?id=...........................................

Your account verification code (pincode) is xxxx. This code is needed when you
make changes in your account.


That 4 digits in your email is your pincode

Existing members received their pincode via an on site PM.

New members initially received their pincode via email.

Now everyone receives the pincode in the introductory pm when they join the site.

Anyone losing the code and needing to recover it will be given their code, but their account will be suspended for 7 days before they can use it.

Horatiu is right, you should have the 4-digit pin in your confirmation email. When I needed to recover login information it worked perfectly too.
