Wouldn't you guys want email sign in instead of user name sign in.Think about it.People can see you user name and maybe guess the password.Email is much secure and harder to know if you don't ever show it.Think about it guys.

Exactly. This can be implemented if the admins want it, but it isn't much of an issue. http://smilies.vidahost.com/cwm/cwm/spiny.gif

Jesus crist to many questions.Half you info means your username now they just need you pw.Now they ask for your favorite thing and them hack it.Like for me.My favorite is scarface.I had my myspce as scarface and they saw it.Then they hacked me!But i got it back.

Well, maybe you should've created a better password that wasn't so blatant or obvious. Also use numbers, symbols and capital letters. It isn't that hard to create a strong, safe, secure password

..then dont use your favorite thing as a password?

its not that hard, actually, its effortless. Use a number. Put random letters like X Z and Q in it or something. Its worth 10 points in Scrabble, come on! And the last thing we would do is put our favorite thing as our password?

@ Firetail: LOL nice smiley, i actually thought you could do that here, instead it was just an image :-/

Well, almost all the websites use usernames to log in.
But it's easy to find out what your e-mail is as well.

Use a password generator.

It's not like your favorite thing is "As3r63hdcv345hsFge4t".

Oh and, does this site use MySQL?
:?

why not just use your Email if you have lost your password?

One day you're like "....crap. what's my password omg!"

"wait! I'll click this button and it would contact my email, and it would give me a random 9 letter password and i could type that in and change it! It's fool-proof!"

This of course, you would need to input your email for that to take effect. AND you would need to keep your email secret too. But its a nice little idea.

ROFL ShintetsuWa, stop changing your armatar, especially into mine!
But seriously, can we just settle this?!

I changed my armatar into the fox to prove a point on another thread, but if you really want to...

Time to settle this: long random password = smart
short, easy password = not so smart

for those who forgets the password, my idea would be the best. DONE!
