[QUOTE=w0lfeh;25316479]I recommend you guys using KeePass, it lets you store your passwords for websites and such(So you can make them fucking long), in case you forget them.
You have to set a password to enter and view your passwords in KeePass(make it really long).There is another way, I didn't really use it, so I don't really know.

I used Keepass until I realized it basically locks you down to using a single computer for accessing all your passworded assets. You'd need to bring they keyfile with you everywhere and you can't use it without the Keepass program installed. Even if you kept separate versions of the keyfile on different computers it would be a bitch to maintain since you'd need to access & update each password on every computer.
I went back to using a few alphanumerical 16 character long base passwords with abbreviations for each. Those take millions of years to bruteforce in worst case anyway. If you really wanted extremely long passwords you'd be better off carrying a thumb drive with an encrypted text file than using Keepass.
I have one password and thats it.
I add +1 to the end of mine on every important website, so like 5 of those then i use my base for the rest of the crap. It'd still take 1 million years to brute force my base pass anyhow.
I don't think I have a problem choosing a password. I have a problem remembering what sites I have signed up to in the first place.

Yea but last time you stole my mouse...
Wait a minute.
[QUOTE=CowThing;25315875]Great idea! I've been using the same password since 2004, so I think it's about time I get one that's more secure.
According to [url]http://howsecureismypassword.net/[/url]
my old password would take "About 2 hours" to crack.
my other old password would take "About 5 years" to crack.
And my new password would take "About 10 million years" to crack.[/QUOTE]
According to that website, it would take 93 billion years to crack

Good point. Someone found out my WoW password and now they have gotten into my email and such.
Well I just learnt this the hard way, got my Steam Stolen yestardy, turns out two e-mails got sent to my e-mail account about changing the pass, and because my steam pass is the same as my e-mail all they had to do was access my e-mail for the verification code :(.
I have like five different passwords.
Two for the really important stuff,
and the others... well,... other stuff :3:
Replacing the vowels of your password with numbers makes it feel pretty safe too.
Pick some word that you can remember easily, replace either all or some of the vowels with numbers and there you have it. For example, password 'Cockblock' -> 'C0ckbl0ck'
I am not allowed to keep the same password all the damn time, damn systems (won't say what or where) forces me to recreate one ever so often, but at max 90 days.
