Is anyone else having the LJ server warn them that their password is too easy to guess?
It isn't as if I've used a dictionary word, or my birthday, or even a short word (and after this I'm going to change it).
No, I have a compound set of words, totalling nine characters. My damned back yells at me because I have a password for my PIN which is too long (and may be why I had trouble getting money in Ukraine, come to think of it. They said something about overseas machines not liking PINs longer than four digits. I can live with that), it isn't as if I am completely clueless about the issue.
I didn't mind them telling me about it yesterday, but Christ on a Crutch, telling me about it every time I post an entry is damned annoying. I saw it the first time. I'm an adult. I think I can be allowed to make up my mind about something like this, without having to put up with being nagged like a toddler to pick up his toys.
(edit)
It seems, they now insist in the inclusion of a number. My use of a space, I guess, isn't as secure as randomly tossing in a digit.
