Use a safe password

Post by MadMikael »

I had no idea that it was this bad.. but apparently there's some people who spend hours trying to guess peoples passwords..

Just want to remind everyone to use a SAFE password. I am amazed at how many people don't :(

A safe password should not be easy to guess (people will get to know you and use that info). It should contain big and small letters, and numbers as well.

I know you've all heard this before, but really, I am just trying to look out for you. Please consider this idea.

Very true, i also recommend NOT using the same password for all accounts. NO MATTER HOW HARD TO GUESS, BETTER TO LOOSE ONE ACCOUNT AND NOT ALL!

I am aware of your situation. But there is more to it that you are not mentioning.

Have you shared your password? Does anyone else know your password? Have you used this password for anything besides FT? Have you shared your device? Have you shared files from your device?

Think about these questions.. and perhaps you will realise how that person got your password.

I would also like to stress NEVER ever use your account's name in the password it's a dead giveaway in really easy to guess ;) ;) your PW shouldn't reflect you!! in fact the less your PW has in common with you your personality, your name, or your interest the better!!
