If I want my password to be "password", chances are I don't give a crap whether or not my account ever gets hacked into.
That, or you don't know how to make a secure password. Remember that not everyone knows computers.
I now want to have Elvish verbs in all my passwords.
This reminds me of a joke where a blonde sets her password as PeterLoisChrisMegStewieBrianSpringfield because it had to be at least 6 characters long with at least one capital
I think it's because there are youthful people on the internet (meaning children). They don't know that "cats" isn't a safe password, and they need to be taught that "9CaTS135" is a safer, securer password. The quickest way is to put limitations on the password.
And God forbid someone's Club Penguin account getting hacked!
one of the first passwords i made was "fishy". not one of my best passwords....
Hey, if those little bastards are dumb enough to touch a stove, let em.
Where is that punctuation you were taught in kindergarten?
They're dumb enough because somebody didn't teach them right.
:'(
Usually their password will just change to cats1234
True, but if they never learn then they could use this password for a banking account or something of equal value.
I kid! I kid!
Nope.
Except I can't. I had to read it four times before understanding it.
@Shannon: Like Meh said, if you don't learn these things for useless things (such as Neopets or Club Penguin) that have the same concept for larger things (such as your bank account or personal e-mail), then you'll have weak passwords for a long time until you learn the lesson the hard way.
Would you rather tell your kid that the stove will give them a second-degree burn, or would you rather they touch it themselves?
Cripes, you might wanna tone down on the grammar Nazism, then. I suggest learning how to read poor grammar and spelling errors. Regardless of how stupid it is, it's nifty for jokes and trying to comprehend some teenagers when you need to.
I know, I know. I just hate it. Drives me crazy.
Best get used to it. People aren't gonna change.
You gotta be exaggerating...
(I was also joking when I said that)
I don't really need to have perfect punctuation though, considering you can understand what I'm saying regardless.
What is this "kid" you speak of I am offended how dare you
Because fuck alzheimer
Simple solution: Put all of your passwords in 1337. Nobody will have any fucking idea what you meant.
oh i dunno, all my passwords have been pretty easy to remember...

elvish verbs being bir, tur, ur, and luf
This reminds me of http://xkcd.com/936/
Love that one! If only the people who create password requirements had seen it too.
You beat me to it... It's worth noting that I follow this method all the time :P
A good password doesn't need numbers/caps/etc; if the password is just long it's harder (takes longer) to crack.
What the fuck is an Elvish verb?
The problem I had with my old password was that it was 25 letters long, meaning it would be too long for many websites.
One of my first passwords was spelled wrong so it ended up being secure anyway, because who would guess "cittycat"
Most of my passwords aren't even real words.
First world problems...

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa would take two trillion years, but
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa would take 63 trillion years. I don't think this is legit.
apparently "penislover69" would take 15 thousand years to crack

(password I use for paypal)
Applying that theory, not my password, but I'd make my username !!καshish'123456789!!
I'm not quite sure what would count as an Elvish verb though.
Kashish sounds elvish enough to me
Actually I prefer the term Indian
Good to have you back buddy
It's good to be back man, it's good to be back.
The post says 5 punctuation marks, not 3.
There are 5....
Two exclamations at each side so a total of 4, and 1 apostrophe in the middle.
The password is monkeyslut.
