RE: Important Changes to Steemit.com and Wallet
In my honest opinion, if users are stupid enough to make easily guessable passwords, then they should get compromised. Teach people a damn lesson to do things for themselves and be smart.
Hi @amethystmidnight,
Please don't get emotional. Actually, they aren't doing it wantonly and their ignorance being the reason for this mistake of theirs.
They are thinking about one side of the coin and are not thinking about the other side. A little eye-opener sort of blog post detailing the risks involved in having easy passwords, which is more of like a soldier guarding the palace gates without any armor.
After this strict implementation of this strict feature, they should be knowing now the mistake they did in the past.....FOR SURE!
When users come here they have no idea about the financial part, and how it works differently than their bank site. Which likely has more money and still allows them to save a password.
It doesn't make you sound smart to shame the end users with less knowledge, it just makes you sound out of touch with who we are onboarding.
Absolutely @whatsup.
If you are you are afraid of account compremise then use local softwere to control your main account and use a different account for posting. Delegate your steemit power to that account. Use 50/50 reward, and send the profit back to your main account.So then steem power in your posting account is just a bonus.
Hi @coinmaster4you,
Excellent idea.
But I don't understand one thing.
Can you please enlighten me about the words "....use local software...."?
Well, it is a type of light wallet you can download to control your steemit account.

Amen to that I had no Problem typing in a 50 digit password. It was secure and sometimes you have to have patience for extra security.
