I fucking hate password rules.
Seriously, every site has different rules. It makes it almost impossible to come up with a password or pattern I can remember across two dozen different sites that all demand passwords.
I know you’re not “supposed” to use the same password on multiple sites, but it’s easy to use one for “non-critical” sites (where you lose nothing if you get hacked, really), and then just have a simple pattern that’s easy to remember to vary the passwords across other sites.
But when different sites have different, and conflicting rules, it fucking winds me up!!
For example, one site demands that you use an upper-case, a lower-case, a number, AND a symbol, and that your password must be 10 characters or longer. A different site says your password must be 6-8 characters. Yet another says “no special characters”. FFS!!!
Fuck you all! Let ME choose the password. If I get hacked, let it be MY fucking fault… not YOURS because you made me have to write down my bloody password just to remember it!!
Either that or just get one UNIFORM set of standards. Seriously, this is fucking ridiculous!!!
On a side note, when I couldn’t remember my password to one of my sites, it locked me out. It then asked my “security questions”, including a question I NEVER GAVE AN ANSWER TO. Seriously, it asked me what my first pet’s name was. I’ve NEVER had one. I couldn’t imagine what I’d answer for such a question, and I know full well I didn’t fill out that question, so it locked my account. WTF??!!
I fucking hate computers sometimes……..
