But “long time user” doesn’t necessarily equal “good password”.

Agreed. I was responding to the suggestion that someone had set up some new accounts to spread mayhem on FR.

I plan to make my password more complex.

We have an official thread on the subject now:

Yeah, a good password is a good thing...an example:
The PW “lovemomma” can be cracked/hacked in 56 seconds or less...but “lovemomma1$” would take more like 56 years...the power of “special characters”, randomness and PW length, etc..
