    I need a new password... :'(

    I'm obviously not going to ask you guys for a password, but I've been using the same password now for about 6ish years. It's 10-digits and a series of numbers, one letter, and one special character. It's programmed into my body at this point. I can make the finger motions for it without thinking. But too many people have been made aware of it, ex-lovers, etc. So in addition to working on some videos for CK, a Cheat Engine guide, grocery shopping, and doing laundry this weekend, I need to also come up with a new password and change probably close to 50 accounts accross various sites and remember it well enough to login manually from work since we cannot get firefox or chrome here to sync the passwords across. :'(

    WTF TO DO!?!? This was a password that was created by my dad for a forum he had started back in the days when cracking Yahoo ID's was relevant. I liked the way it flowed off the fingers so well that I took it and made it my own with the last two digits. Now I'm just like, I don't know how the fack to make a new password that will come so naturally. :'(

    Yes we both did for a good long time. Nothing special just using a dictionary cracker on two separate computers. My job was to maintain his phpnuke site and keep content relevant while he spent time cracking rares with special symbols, spaces, real words, etc. We used to think we were hot shit though. lol ~ It was probably the only bonding my Dad and I ever had in my entire life. And then he got bored with it and I never really cared about the actual cracking shit, but it was lucrative back in the day. Think we made something like $150/200 every two weeks from selling them to other peoples. I never saw any of the money but w/e w/e.

    Kinda sucks that that was all your bonding, but still cool nonetheless Perhaps if you still had the programs or whatever you used, you could try it again with neopets attached emails lol (I would assume it would be harder now, but I don't know if they had any sort of captchas in place to stop mass trying "back in the day").

    As for the password, just string a lot of information about you together like your birthdate, age, name, pet's name anything just make it long and random so that people can't simply guess it.

    Yeah it doesn't work the same way as it did back then from what I've read, and they have ways of killing off your connection to their servers after so many attempts so you have to use tons of proxies or something. I could be talking out of my ass on that one, I haven't kept up with it enough to say for sure. But it would be nifty to have a Yahoo cracker

    I also have a password I need to renew. Mine has a combination of numbers, capitals, and a couple of special characters. I'm the only one who knows about this password though so i dont see why i need a new one.

    @(you need an account to see links) @(you need an account to see links) so why don't you both just trade passwords since you both need a new one?

    & Gohan, I guess in case any sites you have signed up for that may have been hacked have stored your password as plaintext, I guess

    I've been looking at this strong password generator and just continously refreshing until I get something that I like. Seems to be nice.
