tl;dr: It usually means to save your username and player data (such as kills, deaths, score, inventory, vehicles, configuration) for later use.
Usually this is done with a password which restricts other users from using your name and accessing your data.
And in some cases you have to provide your e-mail adress, which your new password will be sent to incase your account gets hi-jacked or you forget your password.

I Believe there is no use for it. Its more a PAWN question than a samp question. I thought you asked what the word meant in general.

I think Pawno just shows it as blue, but I don't think it has any meaning in Pawn language.
