User blog:MMB The Coolest/Password Security

Every day, someone is going on our accounts, modify our settings, and look innocent. These guys know our password, and this is advice to prevent this scenario.


 * 1) NEVER share your password, not even to a close friend. Chances are, that friend will use your password.
 * 2) Always write down your password, and give them to your parents. For those of you contributors who are orphans or adults, keep it in a safe place.
 * 3) Change your password once a month, to keep things fresh.
 * 4) Never use the same password for another site.
 * 5) Never use a single word for your password (e.g. Furby). Add a few numbers, and if the website allows, special characters like #.
 * 6) Never use "Password" as your password.
 * 7) If using Wikia in a public place, log off when you leave the computer for a bathroom break, or another excuse.
 * 8) Use a random code of letters and numbers for your password
 * 9) If the website is programmed to, you can use the button to choose a random password. Most websites that do this use the above tip.
 * 10) Sharing your password is like sharing your personal information.

This is just advice, you don't have to do them... You don't wanna be the one guy who someone knows their password. Protect your password, protect your life.
