Thernys Caldari Capital Construction Research Pioneer Alliance	Posted - 2009.08.30 08:36:00 - [31] Originally by: Khemul Zula Best random password generator...take a keyboard and a ferret. Get the ferret really really really hyper (this requires absolutely no effort) and drop it on the keyboard. Instant random password. I approve of your methods. Ferrets are awesome. Originally by: Schalac Did you ever see a live ferret in a lit grill? I have and god damned if it isn't funny as hell. Logically it then follows that I do not approve with your methods. For thread-relevance, people will always be lazy and thus there will always be passwords like 'password' and 'qwerty'. In fact, now all you need are my account names.

Get the ferret really really really hyper (this requires absolutely no effort) and drop it on the keyboard. Instant random password. not completely. the size of a ferret and the distance between its legs would be similar over the whole of the ferret population. by analyzing the average ferret Vs the average keyboard, it would be easy to write a brute force cracker designed specifically to beat your ferret-generated passwords. african or european ferret? well, African ferrets are non-migratory, so it couldn't make the passwords anyway, could it?

You guys just made my day.

Face Changelette	Posted - 2009.08.30 13:48:00 - [35] Anal fggts in this thread. Best pw is 'pw'. End of.
Sandrestal	Posted - 2009.08.30 13:59:00 - [36] I'm kinda surprised CCP doesn't have something like a character market. You reprocess the character you want to sell (just like mods or ships) which removes the character from your acct. Then you create the contract and put it up for sale. Seems pretty simple to me but then what do I know.
Ouenan	Posted - 2009.08.30 14:12:00 - [37] Passphrases are a lot less trouble to remember than random character sequences.
small chimp	Posted - 2009.08.30 14:30:00 - [38] how do you think to crack the password if it takes 10 sec for server to process the request? And after too many failed attemps it will have 5min delay before you can try again?
Lord Windu Amarr	Posted - 2009.08.30 14:44:00 - [39] I heard that 1234 would be way too easy to crack so I always use 4321 instead.
small chimp	Posted - 2009.08.30 15:07:00 - [40] Originally by: Lord Windu I heard that 1234 would be way too easy to crack so I always use 4321 instead. Yes thats true. Common number sequences may be added to wordlist! 12 123 1234 12345 666 6666 314 3141 31415 314159 3141592 31415926 31415926535897932?
Baron Valkon	Posted - 2009.08.30 16:06:00 - [41] there is one alternative route costs a little so only use if buying a nice character like one selling for 10 bill or more. and that is before you make the buy go ahead and create a new account pay for 1 month and send isk to ur alt account when purchase is done pay 10 usd to transfer nice toon to ur main acnt. Just an idea there is some aded cost involved but hey sounds like it would work donno if a 14 day trial can acpt a character transfer if so then the cost would only be an extra 10.00 usd.
Yukami Kido Caldari Best Path Inc. Ethereal Dawn	Posted - 2009.08.30 16:25:00 - [42] Very simple way to come up with a random password and remember it. take the first letter of every word in a song you like or a saying. Example: mary had a little lamb his fleece as white as snow the password then being mhallhfawas you know the code so you can remember it but its gibberish to anyone else works with any sentence you can think of.
Taedrin Gallente The Space Bar South The Compass	Posted - 2009.08.30 16:55:00 - [43] You know, I would HOPE that CCP would notice if an account had millions of failed access attempts and would suspend the account before the brute force attack successfully found the right password... As for me, I use passwords which I can "sound out", yet are unlikely to exist in a dictionary. An example would be something like: "Truinium" or "Phrimixes". That way I only have to remember the word as opposed to 8-10 different letters and symbols.

Tbh ive forgot my password before and spammed in loads of diffrent combos of the password untill i got my right one, never had a delay or been stopped from trying again. Spent a good 10 minutes bashing in passwords continuosly. Altho this was about 3 months ago i did this.
