Made my GW2 password 16 characters long. The usual vector for hacked passwords I think is from infected forums and malware that scrapes every password along with the exe associated.

If it's not unique it won't matter. Adding two factor auth doesn't hurt either. Surprising number of people with their email accounts owned. :ohdear:

I make my MMO passwords safer than my bank pws. :downs: Never ever had an email hacked, helps that my email passwords are completely different than all my other pws.
Before last pass my system was
1. throwaway repeated password
2. password cypher based on secret system
3. must remember passwords

most sites it only takes me 2-3 tries to remember which that site uses.

After a decade of doing this I'm starting to forget some of my older accounts so I downloaded Keypass. So far my bank/investment accounts haven't been drained so AA+++ would download again.

I've had 5 black lion scrap tickets since like 7 months ago, just sitting in my bank mocking me.

I got to level 10 and did the story on my warrior and fellow goon Kes was nice enough to help me brute force it on my ele and mesmer.

3 keys, 3 chests, odds are slim.



:w00t: :woop:

I think this is life rewarding me for that all the lovely stuff that's happened this week. :unsmith:

I somehow missed the news that the Gas Mask is available. There's actually quite a few nice rewards there which is unusual.

The last time I played SPvP there was one guy on my team who referred to all the other players, collectively, as a "virgin zoo". Like, repeatedly. He could not let go of this one phrase.

Before the patch, back when there were all of seven people in sPvP, I was trying to figure out a build for my warrior. I was running hammer and sword/warhorn or something equally dumb and dying every couple seconds, contributing next to nothing. We lost, and at the end of the match, one of my teammates said something along the lines of "Warrior, you should fix your build, for future games."

I feel like if that same situation played out today, the resulting whispers would be more like... well, that.

I believe in you.
Yeah, the really spergy dudes are mostly from the new patch and reward tracks. There was like 2 or 3 really angry dudes in spvp and everyone knew their names before the patch. The point is that it's actually the pve'rs who are awful people.

Esporters were happy when sPvP finally become somewhat popular, but little did they know that it just lead to sPvP being full of the same terrible mmo nerds who in PvE only do warrior only full zerker required champ trains 24/7.

[e:] I sometimes do those trains too but that's because almost no one is online in SFD or GOON when I play :v:
