Every 60 days Change passwords??

[_HeyyItsHannah_]

Every 60 days on forum it says something along the lines of,"It has been 60 days and your password has expired." I'm just wondering this but.. Does this happen to anyone else? It has happened to me multiple times.. I asked around a longer time ago and no one else seems to really have it..

I'm kind of running out of passwords.. Is this for everyone??

PS. it seems that I can re-use the password I used the time before I had to change it. Ex: 1st 60 days original pass, 2nd 60 days: 2nd pass 3rd 60 days: original pass. Is this for everyone!?

I'm so confused. :S:S

P.P.S. I didn't know what prefix to use, so sorry if I used the wrong one.

probably to do with your help desk usergroup which, i imagine, rarely gets used by other people to get noticed.
i haven't had a forced password change in like a year, and yeah it's possible to reuse passwords but not recommended really.

easily changed by an admin @Nick; @Phil;

Help desk usergroup?? What? And if I know what you might be talking about, I asked some people from the help desk and they don't have to do it either... hmmm... I wonder ahha. But You had to change it too? Is this like just for the first year or so of joining forum? LOL.

help desk usergroup is your green name,

and everyone gets a forced password reset (I think/hope) every X days.

Okay I've had a look at your usergroups and I found that the Green Team for HxSS has it set to change the password every 60 days on it for some reason. I've removed this for you now so it shouldn't happen anymore.

Thanks for mentioning me David

EDIT:

Yeah David what you just said is correct. The HxHD Staff are prompted to change their password every 90 days so it will still happen for the HxHD every three months or so Hannah

Normal usergroups don't have password expiry.

You may have had it when you was Graphics Staff as that seems to have it set.
