How often do you change your password? I've changed mine only once ever, as my old one wasn't very safe after I noticed over 3 dozen failed login attempts to my playNC account.
So, the question is... how do you feel about your account safety?
1: Paranoid, change my password at least once a day
2: Very scared, change my password several times a week
3: Scared, change my password once a week
4: Kinda scared... change my password once every 2 weeks
5: Not scared, change my password once a month
6: Minimally scared, maybe a few times a year
7: Changing passwords is for n00bs, haven't changed my pass... ever!
For me, 6. I've changed it once ever, don't feel scared cause my account name and e-mail is sooooo random and hard to decypher that not even the most dedicated hacker could figure it out.(i would know as I used to hack another game, don't worry, twas console related game^^)
How safe do you feel with your guildwars account?

hmm even if your pass is random, like e4f1"'51gf"'5zf1"'51fg"'5tg1"'
keyloggers would do the very same trick

I got hacked not sure how because I have not given out any of my info to anyone. Its strange because there have been huge amounts of people being hacked all of the sudden.
Hack rating: 5 or so

If you have a secure password, why change it?

I'm extremely safe now, as I uninstalled couple days ago. Nothing in my account worth stealing now anyway.

I'm in between 6: Minimally scared, maybe a few times a year + 7: Changing passwords is for n00bs, haven't changed my pass... ever!
Since i dont change it a few times a year, i've only changed it once. And like miskav, only one person knows my account and i can beat the crap out of him
, but in all fairness i also know his account.

6 , I changed it because there was this 1 person who knew my password 
Anyway, if I get hacked the hacker will be like this:
"All the effort for a green dye!?"

7. Easily. Never changed my password and never intend to. Only other person who knows my password is my little brother.

I've only changed my password twice - once to allow a friend on to buy me something from the in game store - and the other to lock them back out.
I don't need to change my pass, because nobody that I've met on the Internet knows my real e-mail addresses (the ones I have my GW accounts tied to), and I'm not a dumbass who downloads keyloggers.
If I do somehow get hacked... meh.

This is easy to answer:
Safe enough to know I have no Ectoplasm, no Obsidian Shards, no special weapons, no special titles on any of my characters and nothing, virtuously and absolutely zero, none and nada important or sellable items.
So if someone wanted to take advantage of that, they'd be wasting their time completely. I am not a pack rat.

7. I've never changed my password because I was worried about being hacked. I changed it once but that was because I didn't like the password.

Pick a safe password and keep it to yourself. That way the only one that can hack you - is you.

Now i'm secure

I truly think only those who are being very careless with their pass get hacked.

7. I use different passwords for everything. No website or account I have has the same password as any other thing I use.
cosyfiep
none of the above.....I dont believe there IS such an animal as security on the internet....I dont like to down load things....heck I am not allowed to even USE some of the stuff (imageshaft and photobutt--hubby doesnt like them so no can use...and he is the IT guy not me).....I dont like putting ANY information out on the internet that can be gotten ANY way by even cookies (yep hate them too)......and plaync's lack of security give me the willies!!!!

7. first i have nothing of value maybe the most is my rangers customized longbow... lol... and i feel if someone gets my password its my own fault
GloryFox
I feel very very very safe.
1) I don't use user names or email that resemble anything on any of my accounts.
2) Letters plus numbers for password security FTW.
also AUTO LOGIN FTL. Never save your user name and password on any login you might use.

I changed my password once just to test how to do it
Only one person knows my e-mail/password. If he hacked my account, then I would hack his account because I know his too.
