They will be stupid people always. We must help them, so that's what this update his for.

It's not too hard to change your password, comon :roll:



Yes you can help the stupid people by putting up a warning message to tell them not to set their password too simple when they set their password...

You should not help the stupid people by jeoprodize the smart one with this update..........

There's a problem with coding.

You can get your old password by reseting the new one you've had to put in.
You can get your old password in preferences again.

Fix it HCS?


Please dont fix this, I do not agree that we need to have #!@$%^&*()-=+ in our passwords, thats alittle to much to force someone to do, make it so its has to be like a certain number of charecters long and u have to use at least 1 number and 1 Letter too, the rest of the charecters should be watever u want

Lowercase = a
Uppercase = A
You must have at least one of each :)

Lol if they don't fix it, it will mean this update means nothing. Not worth it...
And what's too much, what does it really change???

People whinge about the game's security not being strong enough...

People whinge about having to enter a stronger password...

The more I read on the forums the less I actually want to visit them

Thank you for taking action on the HCS

i think it is a great update, and i think most will be more secure. better to need help from hcs at this stage, than after your account has been hijacked and all your gear, or worse the guilds, is cleaned out. now it just needs to be mandatory to reset passwords every so often, and remind again no one to post their user name and password on external fan sites. if you are going to idiot proof something this is no time to take small steps for granted.

Exemple: Spoon36!
This ain't good before of the o's.
Same character in sequence, you can't have two of the same character following each other.

i bet you that it takes more than 15 seconds for everyone to think of something they can remember with this many restriction..it actually takes me 10 minutes..and for the next few days, it gonna give me hard time until i can finally 100% remember it

how long it gonna take for stupid people to change their password from 12345 to something thats meaningful? even just a word like "computer" ? or even just their parent's name? I am sure it will still be easy for them to remember

Ummm right down your password on a sheet of paper? Hard?
Save your password somewhere on your CPU? Hard?
