I have been known to sew over pins. sometimes I break a needle or bend a pin. Not a good deal. I try to pull as I get there, but sometimes don't quite make it.

Oh yes! I just cut 3 holes in the backing of my latest quilt to retrieve them! Going along ... La,La,La,... what the heck broke my nee... oh! Good thing I don't mind patches on the back!

Don't sew over them, but then don't usually use very many pins.

I try to pin where the needle won't hit the pin.

All it takes is one time for the pin to be just right to hit the needle point and then all kinds of damage can happen. I take them out now after that one time happened to me.

Sometimes I do and other times I take them out. I was taught though even though you aren't supposed to sew over them if you put them in at an angle then it won't break the needle.

I can if I am sewing very slowly. Otherwise I break needles and once the pin went right down into the bobbin, and caused all kinds of trouble. Had to have the machine repaired. If you do, be very careful!

No, although I use to, but decided that replacing needles and bent pins was crazy, in addition to the possibility of putting a hole in your fabric from the needle or pin breaking bending. I don't go through nearly as many needles or pins now. LOL

I don't for a couple of reasons. I'm afraid of doing damage to my machine by knocking it out of time if I hit a pin and I want to avoid braaking needles.

I never sew over the pins. Don't want to take the chance of bending/breaking the needle.
