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^^)

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

6, 2 people know my account, and I can easily beat the crap out of them, so I'm not afraid

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

7. After all, they just fixed an exploit, so we're safer than evar!

If you have a secure password, why change it?

jaw495g98ehrt is just as easy to guess (or hack) as woe89ie4rnrfw

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.

0.5 - Once per hour. PlayNC.com is my FireFox start page.

And more serious: Maybe every 3-4 months

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.
