RitaB Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 I know good and well that I am NOT typing in my password incorrectly for ATX. Well, I'll show them. Not only will I slow it down, I will break fingernails pounding out those characters on this keyboard. Take that! Just once, I want them to say, "Close enough," and let me in. 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abby Normal Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 One of the best choices I've made recently is scripting several of my main passwords. I don't even know what my password for ATX is but my script always types it correctly! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catherine Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 I was going to say Abby's script is probably ALL curse words! (joke, Abby) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelmars Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 a while back, after much frustration i changed my Oxford insurance password to "thisisb*s*f*koxford" all spelled out. Well one day my secretary had to deal with them on an issue and they asked her for the password verbally. Boy was she embarrassed to say it over the phone. 1 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted March 11, 2019 Report Share Posted March 11, 2019 And here is one version of an old story. WARNING: potty-mouth terms used as you get farther in. Password reset A man was was unable to log into his online banking account and he pulled up the online chat support. "I put in my password and I cannot access my account" "Sorry that password has expired - you must register a new one." "Did anyone discover that password and hack my computer?" "No, but your password has expired - you must get a new one." "Why then do I need a new one as that one seems to be working pretty well?" "Well, you must get a new one as they automatically expire every 90 days." "Can I use the old one and just re-register it?" "No, you must get a new one." "I don't want a new one as that is one more thing for me to remember." "Sorry, you must get a new one." "OK, roses." "Sorry you must use more letters." "OK, pretty roses" "No good, you must use at least one numerical character." "OK, 1 pretty rose" "Sorry, you cannot use blank spaces." "OK, 1prettyrose" "Sorry, you must use additional characters." "OK, 1fuckingprettyrose" "Sorry, you must use at least one capital letter." "OK,1FUCKINGprettyrose" "Sorry, you cannot use more than one capital letter in a row." "OK, 1Fuckingprettyrose" "Sorry, you cannot use that password as you must use additional letters." "OK, 1Fuckingprettyroseshovedupyourassifyoudon'tgivemeaccessrightfuckingnow" "Sorry, you cannot use that password as it is already being used" 2 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jklcpa Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Uh, I edited Abby's post to remove some symbols that were setting off my AV software making it think there was a script running on the page. It wasn't happening before Catherine's and Terry's posts, so that is strange, but I removed the colon symbols. Still not helping with my AV that is now chiming every minute even though I told the program this page is a safe link. Thanks, Abby. Grumble, grumble. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
