My password eats you.

At one point, that actually was my password ... except that I had to hang a little notecard from my desk, and I kept misentering it ... I changed it.

Thats why you save it in encrypted text file of course.

I had a custom password for my old account. I remember back in the day when begging Lyndzey I think for a password change

But where do I store the password to the encrypted file?

Get a goddamn pen and write it on a piece of paper. Just left of my screen theres a card with all my passwords written down.

What if the mean people break in and steal the card?

TIME TO CALL GHOSTBUSTERS!

I love my randomly generated Graal password, it's really easy to memorize and stuff.

EDIT: Wooo, 2000 posts...

Well, before Graal had a way to create accounts on the website, Fuitad would make them and would let us choose our own passwords. We had to send him an email to create an account back then.

I used to set custom passwords for people, as long as they weren't the person's account name or something extremely obvious (I got "graal" as a request once). I do not see the huge problem with it, except if the person is using that password for everything else (email, AIM, etc). This is because if one person sends you a virus that gets your Graal password, they now have access to everything else. Unfortunately, this happened to me after I left and the person was able to get on my AIM.

I think there might be a rule against custom passwords now. I don't see why it is such a big deal to have one considering it's only a 7 character combination and isn't that difficult to memorize.
