Hey guys!

Remember to change your passcodes into a harder passcode every 30 days.Use spaces and if possible, special characters, and Use CAPITALS and lowercase.

This makes it just that much harder to crack your passcode :)

Special Characters That Can Be Used in the Password Field:

```
at sign
@
percent sign
%
plus sign
+
backslash
\
slash
/
single quotation mark

exclamation point
!
number sign

dollar sign
$
caret
^
question mark
?
colon
:
comma
.
left parenthesis
(
right parenthesis
)
left brace
{
right brace
}
left bracket
[
right bracket
]
tilde
~

hyphen

underscore
_```

Taking a suggestion from a thread commenter, try out your password combinations at http://howsecureismypassword.net/.
Don’t worry, it doesn’t log.

Some more tips:
1. Try making your passcodes as random as possible
2. Make it at least 10 characters long
3. Right down a hard copy so you don’t forget

Dude if you like that kind of stuff you should go to http://howsecureismypassword.net/ It tell you how long it will take to crack your password and also you can set how fast the (fake) program cracks it like it is set to 4 billion combunations per second but I set mine to like 13.5 billion or something like that.

roun512, I did not waste time writing this. I know many people are too lazy and/or don’t know how to make a secure passcode. So I decided to educate them and posting it here. Right at their fingertips. ;)
