Because Blossom keeps trying to steal my password, I have decided to post this thread about password safety. The most important thing to keep in mind while making a password is that you must choose a combination of letters and numbers that YOU CAN REMEMBER but NO ONE WILL GUESS.
Keep your password safe and do not give it to anybody. Also don't use the smae password that you use for other things. All of these things will help you make a safe password. Blossom, you can take this as a hint about my password.

[[.You can choose a completely random password like asdfh wEAKLFJAkerjc23429348579234 SALDFJL4"£(j223 (and I remind everyone that you CAN have spaces in passwords) and no one will guess it, but you can remember it if you type it out enough. Eventually if you just start the sequence, your fingers remember the rest, even if you don't.
Of course, that password seems a little farfetched, so just have something like "ASF Lawefjlkv2383SEJVvlje" and your fingers will remember it if you type it out enough.
The amount of people who have passwords like Michael14 (their name, then age) and think it'll be safe is ridiculous. Just because it has a capital letter, lowercase letters and numbers doesn't mean it's secure. Never use words in your password if you want to keep it safe.
I know my father's password. Why? Because it's our surname. It's 'li'. Plain and simple.
And people wonder how hacking is so easy.

I've been starting to switch up my passwords a bit recently... not all of my online accounts have the same password, but I have 3-5 that I rotate around.

Any pass word can be cracked if your hacker is smart and persistant. there is a finite number of possibilities for passwords and thus a logic probe with an IP randomizer could crack gaia like an egg

That is unless your password is not made up of letters and numbers.
