There's been a TON of new stuff. Don't worry about what other people may call you, just play as you please & learn along the way... there's no shame in that :) You could always take a look at the MapleStory website & read up on some updates to have an idea of what's been going on but Dino pet came out so long ago, don't think I will be able to list everything here haha :P

Try logging onto the MapleStory website & request a pin reset. Once you reset your pin, an email will be sent to your MapleStory email (the one you signed up with) & there will be a link for you to visit. Once that is all done, go back on MapleStory, log in as usual & you will be asked to enter a new pin. Other than that, there's no way to retrieve your pin, unless you guess it. Good luck.
