Not always. And, I already worked there when they introduced the "new" policy.

Yes, because the option of the administrators knowing their jobs isn't ever going to happen. *flips open the want ads*

Easy way to remember password is just follow these >rules :rolleyes:

Loading signature... . . . Please Wait . . .

'Repost' is also a repost. The irony is dee-licious!

Ah... I bet dollars to donuts the password is stored plain text!

My favourite is the security question where a valid answer is invalid!

Stupid Security:

What colour was your first car?

Me:

Blue

Stupid Security:

Sorry, your answer must contain at least 6 characters.

Me:

OK, my first car was "F-ck Off!" coloured! :mad:

:rolleyes:

[Lost User]

That is an odd security question since there are only about 10 expected possible answers. Perfect example of an inconvenience introduced in the name of security that has no benefit.

You forgot one "Whole or partial real words cannot be used in your password."

More than ten, Shirley. I had a Ford Ka whose colour was Karome, for example.

Well, I made NO secret of it being a repost. As mentioned, I thought the situation called for it! If indeed you believe that you have read ALL posts on the CP, then you could just have skipped my post when you saw the "Repost" subject line and moved along peacefully... ;P

Password: Penis Response: Your password is too short - try again. I'm sure I've seen spam emails suggesting a solution to that. Password: PenisEnlargment Response: You really expected that to work?
