How do you know my age @Peter-Brezovsky lol. Based on your profile image (and failure to recognise I wasn’t serious) I’m a lot older

My profile picture is a joke (noone could know that,cause it's an inside joke),and for real.Sorry to tell this to you ,but if you ask the password from someone else ,they can immediately hack your account,with that.The function of the password is the last key to be in your profile,and you have to give something,that noone could know. How didn't you realise you give this "key "into the hand of anyone?And they could choose the password they can hack into your system.And sorry if i guessed your age wrong,i was only focusing on your name "007"

Video at post #16 looks interesting, Will have to look at it tonight when I have the time.

Lots of technical mumbo jumbo and only interesting if you intend to hack passwords. If you want to know how to choose one then the following video is of more use.

 

I have a good system, I'm surprised it's not mentioned.

I take a common phrase, or nursery rhyme. lets say "rainy day go away"

But I don't put my fingers in the correct position i.e. index fingers don't start on f and j.

Then I just type it in. For example here's "rainydaygoaway" with my index fingers on g and h:

"tsubtfsthisest"

Add the year you were born at the end, and I think it's not crackable.

Another good system IMO is not a word or anything at all. Use a pattern.

For example "rfvbnhyt" is just the square of letters surrounding the g key.

So make a password that's your name + the square of keys around g. Super easy to remember, but I doubt they're attacking it that way.

You could make one that is less obvious then others and write it down on a sheet of paper if needed!

Simply make your password “incorrect” and then whenever you can’t remember your password and type it in wrong, chess.com says “your password is incorrect.” Problem solved

It's unlikely someone would hack your account if you're active. Inactive accounts are easy to hack. Just pretend you forgot the password and the password is sent by chess.com or other website to the email address.
