    I bet that would still come up as a 'weak' password. "N0w1amG3tt1ng53r10u5lyFuck1ngP1553d0ff1w1ll5h0v350Fuck1ngGr33nCabbag35UpY0urFuck1ngFatA551fY0uD0N0tG1v3M3Acc355T0Y0ur50ftwar31mmed1at3ly" would probably come up as 'good'.

  • Well, they're necessary for safety.

    I only find it annoying when they don't have some small text telling you what the requirements are, so you just have to keep failing.

    Used to annoy me, but then I got LastPass. It's secure enough for me, there's a built-in password generator, and if you have multiple computers, your passwords follow you around.

    LastPass does, of course, have its own password, but you can disable it if you want.

    Or you can make it "cabbage".

    One could come up with a password describing something they do or love.
    Like Coffee7AM or whatever.

    Yeah it's annoying to have to come up with such complicated text. It takes me forever to memorize passwords like that.

    It does get old.
    And having to keep a note pad to write them all down.
    Just as bad, having it say your email address is invalid.
    As if, I get emails daily.
    So, whats the problem?

    Just come up with a string of accepted characters and change the lowercase ones, and apply this to all your passwords. For example:

    A2#_cabbage
    A2#_ihatemyself
    A2#_bankaccountwithlifesavings

    Funny. But, of course, there are good reasons for strong passwords.

    Yeah but if the NSA wants to spy on you then having a really complicated password will make it more irritating for them. If you really don't care about security though, then you could just think up one password that contains over 8 characters, one capital letter, one number, etc. and then just use that for all your accounts, even for accounts that don't require all of that.
