If I try and change my password I'm bound to get this message. 3600 days is a bit over the top. I'm running out of passwords to use!

Aslong as you note them down, then you will probably not run out of passwords to use within 10 years.. :rolleyes:

Examples of a password is..

If you do it like that.. it's limitless..

Do what I do, go to teletext, pick out a random tv program lets say the simpsons and use S1mps0ns as your pass.
Its easy to remeber and yeah :P

[dont use S1mps0ns as your pass :rolleyes: ]

The point of it is so that you never use the same password twice :P If Habbox stays open for 10 years then it'll probably made to 7200 days or something. Then again it'd be pretty hard to track down a pass from 10 years ago so maybe not. But yeah the point is to never use the same pass twice.

*cough* I think he meant 360 days but the point still holds.

No, I think it's 3600 days. Well it was since I changed my password.

No it's 3600 days. Well it was last time I tried to change it to something unless they've changed it now.

If it is 3600 days then it must be an error as we certainly wouldnt set a limit that involves a member using the forum for almost a decade would be pointless. I will look into it for you.

I think I changed it from 360 to 3600 so that people can't use the same pass from 1 year ago.

Why? No one would remember a pass from 1 yr ago (well its rare)

Can it be changed back to 360 please :) That'd be greatly appreciated.

Just use random numbers and letters :). If its too hard, switch the pass round.

So if it was dfs324 make it 423sfd ;).

I could do that and put my account on remember me (which I have) but if ever I come off remember me and have to put my pass in I normally forget it because i've had to change my pass to something bizzare and I have to go through the whole forgot password process :(.

So write it down somewhere ;) Also why would you use passwords over and over?

I remember passes that friends of mine used 1 year or longer ago.

But I guess we should only be strict about this for Habbox staff members, other forum users should be allowed to use old passes (at their own risk).
