Im curious whether the same was true in the castle age when you needed a password to be let in by a guard, that long weird ones were better? And that you could get in by brute force if not guessing

Long weird ones were presumably harder to guess, but also harder to remember.  But yes, they were vulnerable to brute force attacks of a different nature.

I’ve realised someone might try to hack my account to access one with such high ratings and to be superadmin of the best club on site (Champions of the World).

 

So what is the best and safest password to have, so i can change it to that. Thancks.

 

Wrong

Incorrect

False

The problem is, if it says "Your Password is wrong", and you have put it to "incorrect", you are practically dead.

just use a random 4 word string you can easily remember, like spicypeanutbuttersalad, followed by a symbol and a number you can easily remember

An easy way to remember a good password is to use the first letters of a phrase and its punctuation. For example:
"Anyone for tea this afternoon?" becomes "A1fttan?".

I'm not sure if this is still the case but passwords used to be more secure if they were in multiples of eight characters. The reason was that the password characters were stored in groups of eight. If a password was nine characters long the extra seven "blank" characters were padded with identical characters, which made the password easier to crack. Again, I'm not sure if this is still the case.

edit: Yes, a good password should have both upper and lower case letters as well as one or more special characters and numbers.

probably "a" is the least safe

Until recently I used ultrasafe but somebody hacked me so now I changed it to ultraultrasafe. If, by any chance though, that one will go as well, my next password will be the text of one of T-Rump's twitter messages. No one will believe that anyway.

T-Rump sounds like a questionable rapper's name..

I have a random element that is hard to remember - but that is a one-time effort - and I have an element related to the url, so that on each website my password is different in a for me predictable way.

"Password" is always the safest password to use.
