a password riddle
-
Hi, I dont know in which forum i can post this, but here it goes. I registered a service in a site (participate in a game), they asked for a username and a password (and other info). So it happens that i submitted a password with "space" char like the following: "hi world". So, the service accepted the password but now they say passwords with space char are not allowed! So it seems to me that because the game is going to start 17th november and i cant change password now, it meens i cant login! is there a way to enter? can i type something between hi and world that replicates the space key? what string did the computer stored? :confused: this is my wild guess. any other suggestion?!:confused:

Try a different forum. What does this have to do with C#?

Dear god man. How dare you offer such a commonsense answer? ;P

Here's a riddle for you: Who uses a space in the password? ;) Seriously, doesn't the service have any I-forgot-my-password service?
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

as i said they let me register that password, after that i couldn´t login, now they say i can not use a password with space char, got it? but they let me register it!!! i think they really dont know much about programing!!! For real, i think they dont have that password recovery stuff or it doesn´t work like it should you know. this is kind of a joke, they let you register a string that cannot be register! X| The even send me a email with the username and password!!! :laugh:

If a site manage to recover my password and resend it to me I'd cancel my account with that provider. Noone should store your password in a recoverable form
