kikaown Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 I have had my current password on Neopets for a few weeks so far, and without warning, I got a message saying that my password was not secure. This has only shown up in the past few days. It is not a dictionary word, it has numbers and capitals mixed in, and I don't know how to make the "STOP! Your password's not secure enough!" disappear. It has worked fine since I last changed it, and only recently have I been getting this message. Is anyone else having this problem?
Superfly Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 Did this come in the form of neomail, or was it on a page when you logged in. A nice screenie would be nice aswell.
Strategos Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 Does it have to do with your real name, birthday registered on neopets, email address? Basically anything Neopets knows about you?
kikaown Posted March 11, 2007 Author Posted March 11, 2007 I've tried changing it, it doesn't work. It has nothing that neopets knows about me. It is on the page after I log in. I can't make a screenie, but the web address works if you are not logged in (without the "please enter a password" part).
Anime Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 o_O It says it for me too. Maybe it's a minor glitch (all though I can't say my pass is the best in the world) And that's the page that usually complains about my e-mail adress.
Ellie_Penguin Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 yea i got it and i changed to something even harder and it worked XD. Don't worry it is not a scam or bad site.
kikaown Posted March 11, 2007 Author Posted March 11, 2007 Maybe they're just cracking down on passwords now. Anyways, I tried random mixtures of letters and I'm still getting it.
Ellie_Penguin Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 try mixing letters AND numbers. For example: kab23mo23 (this is JUST an example)
webpixie Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 well my password is an 8digit number and that seems to be hard enough for it as i dont get the message..
Zac Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 Yeah..I used to get that but I changed it so now its hard for me to remember it :P
Arrogance Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 I've experienced that once with Neopets... I think, bad memory. The best combination in a password is capital letters, lower-case letters and numbers. If you can combo up a password with those three it ought to keep that "STOP!..." message away :P
Matt Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 I noticed it did that dispite it being deemed "secure" before. I know it's already been said, I just wanted to confirm it. :P
Awesome_Paul Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 to amke the best pass word always use the follwiung three "UPPER CASE" "lower case" "numbers" (E.G: 98uHy6tBH)
kikaown Posted March 12, 2007 Author Posted March 12, 2007 When I said letters, I meant both capital and lowercase, plus a number. Anyways, I changed my password and am not getting it anymore. I actually think my new password is easier to guess, but apparently not.
Dillon Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 I just ignore the message. But if you do care about it. Do something like a major appilcane when you bought it and youre name. I.E. : HP2006dillon
julie_kofoed1980 Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 I get the same message :D And there's no way anybody can guess my password it's totally random big and small letters and numbers mixed... I just ignore the message :P
webpixie Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 shoudlnt this topic be closed since hte original poster ended up chanign their password and now dosnt get the message..
The Big Cheese Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 No, if anyone else has the problem or someone knows how to fix it, they can still post ;)
Dillon Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 I got that message a few days ago. I changed my password but now i forgot it. Crap.
webpixie Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 I got that message a few days ago. I changed my password but now i forgot it. Crap. This is why if its a new password you write it on a peice of paper and stick it next to the computer or in your wallet or someplace else it wont get lost..
Dillon Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 Or i could click on forgot password button. But i remeber it now.
