Hi,
why are you going on this forum? It's for a reason, isn't it? Whatever that reason is- it may be for applying, it may be for fun or to just in general post and comment your opinion on random things. If it was for admin, you're reading this right now. You got a chance at it. You don't want to break that good streak of yours, do you? Stop using short and one worded passwords.
Many days ago, I had the urge to go on the server and check it out. Then, a hacker was online leaking all the admins' forum passwords. ALL of them were one-worded passwords and had barely nine or more characters. One of them were just the admins REAL name and three numbers following it. Stop it. Here are a few tips to prevent your forums account from being hacked with a well-written password. Use www.random.org/strings/ to generate random letters- uppercase and lowercase- and numbers. Check all options; use uppercase letters (A-Z); lowercase letters (a-z); one of the strings (dice roll or raffle tickets); and numbers. Generate the password up to 100 characters; for more information, go on the support proboards forum and search about it.
If you don't use a randomly generated, or at least good password then you will be breached and removed. Use the link given above to find more information about that. Also, do not use any online password storage such as LastPass; the program always gets hacked and all information will be leaked- I use a notepad to store this information. It is much easier to control, doesn't take up any space nor can get hacked or leaked. Ensure you are using good passwords. Use passwordmeter.com/ to see how secured your passwords are.
