With reference to the Heartbleed Bug and changing passwords I had this recent scenario when attempting the very same.


Please enter your new password:


"cabbage"



Sorry, the password must be more than 8 characters.



"boiled cabbage"



Sorry, the password must contain 1 numerical character.



"1 boiled cabbage"



Sorry, the password cannot have blank spaces.



"50bloodyboiledcabbages"



Sorry, the password must contain at least one upper case character.



"50BLOODYboiledcabbages"



Sorry, the password cannot use more than one upper case character consecutively.



"50BloodyBoiledCabbagesShovedUpYourA*se,IfYouDon'tGiveMeAccessnow”



Sorry, the password cannot contain punctuation.



“ReallyP*s*edOff50BloodyBoiledCabbagesShovedUpYourA*seIfYouDontGiveMeAccessnow”



Sorry, that password is already in use.


:D:D
 
Good one nivrip. We've all come across similar scenarios. It's like "Just let me decide how secure I want my password to be!". Do they think we only have one password to remember and they want us to make them with approx a million characters. Next they'll introduce letter/numbers in colour as another form of password.

Sorry, you can't have a red R next to a blue O. Please try again

Really!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr lol
