thanks, lets hope it does :P and if it doesnt then that's ok, I will be writing more guides soon. but yeah, thatnks everyone for the constructive critisism :mrgreen: and umm...thanks for the negative critisism too I guess... :anxious:

Hi, I am Krucifier, some of you may have known me in game, some of you may not. I had an account on Runescape, and of course, his name was Krucifier. I was banned about A month ago, one of the things I did do, that was talk about A TV show that was mildly rude, but that was over a year ago, and apparently, that happened the same day I was permanantly banned, and apparently I scammed and abused people. I was A player for 4 years, A member for 3 of those. That is how I got repayed...but after some investigation, I find my Sister was always looking at me typing in my pass and bank pin and told her friends, and yeah, they stuffed around on my account and I got banned. Permanantly. so that's why I decided to make this guide. to teach YOU how to keep YOUR account safe. to prevent THAT happening to YOU. ~~~~~The Basic's~~~~~ That basic's are actually quite basic. First off, ALWAYS have A bank pin. ALWAYS have recovery questions. ALWAYS have A complicated pass. ~~~~~Your Password~~~~~ Personally, I believe A good password is A long, lengthy, random one that you will never forget. but, you may consider writing down A hint, take this example. one of my first passwords was "arloolra2025" I wrote down this, "He was my friend, A long time ago, that good old Laughing Out Loud spelt with 2 0's in the middle, and who could forget the egyptian god of the sun? and for the last part, 5202" My friend, A long time ago, his name was Arlo, of you look closely, the word is "arloolra" which is Arlo then Arlo spelt backwards. and the '0' reference is to trick, what kind of word is spelt with 0's instead of o's...honestly :notalk: anywho, the egyptian god of the sun, Ra, referencing to the first and last part of 'arloolra'. and of course, '5202' is the numbers backwards I always had clues like that in case I forgot my pass, which was quite often. so what has all that got to do with keeping my account secure? well it is an example of A good clue you may write for yourself. one of the things you MUST do, and this is PARAMOUNT, do A Virus and Spyware and Malware and EVERYTHING check WEEKLY and change your password MONTHLY. at LEAST once EVERY 2 WEEKS!. ~~~~~Your Bank Pin~~~~~ This has to be one of the best innovations Jagex has done so far for account security. You should set one IMMEDIATLY. there would generally be no need to change it ever. just make it A number your love...like 2222, or, like I had, my POSTCODE. because I am in Australia, my POSTCODE is 4 digits. ~~~~~Recovery Questions~~~~~ Set them IMMEDIATLY!!! that is the most IMPORTANT THING EVER! Always remember, if you are unsure that you will be able to remember them like me, write A complex clue or the like, like suggested in the Password section of this guide. ~~~~~Some Other Tips~~~~~ Whenever you log in, be sure to open Notepad, and follow this example, the bold letters are your PASSWORD (after typing A letter in go to Notepad and type in random stuff) Log In Page NotePad P osjkiajjn A ajisijabifbaib S kiaosfnaf S koandfioansgoinh W odmpfmsfmsdnmg O sokdpfosjgnm R pldf[lds[gl D pldsp[lsdplg[ Another tip, which is something which let to my downfall, make sure noone is around when you type in your password. I hope this guide has been helpful too you, Constructive Criticism is always appreciated :
