how to keep your account secure
now there is a simple way of seeing how good your password is.
there is a 1/X chance your password will be guest correctly .
if your password has numbers and letters X = length of password to the power of 36.
if your password has letters X = length of password to the power of 26.
if your password has numbers X = length of password to the power of 10.
if it is less than 959484711069286 a hacker bot can hack your account in 2 mins
if it is more than 95941184711069286 a hacker bot can not hack your account.

Re: how to keep your account secure
How do you know this?
And if you have words in the dictionary, symbols []\';'. it makes it easier and harder.

Re: how to keep your account secure
There's nothing languish about the word kaj.
See what I did there?

Actually, I heard someone say (maybe it was Blade?) that it means rejoyce...

I was just making a pun about someone misspelling "language". And so far the only usage of the word kaj that I know of is an obscure mythological spirit of storms.

Re: how to keep your account secure
Let's get this right....
numbers 0 -1000 = 1000 possibs, = 10³
10 = different characters
3 = number of characters
so it's 36 ^ length, 26 ^ length, 10 ^ length and so on.
TheSuccessor's right 
Oh, last thing. That long number of yours... What's in in exponent form?

Re: how to keep your account secure
I doubt my account will ever be hacked. It's in an ∞ [infinite] chances. So, I wouldn't worry as much.

I know you were making a pun. It was very punny.
