1. Write DIFFICULT recovery questions, make sure that they're something hard, perhaps something like your favorite song, personal interests in something wierd (IE: You really like artistic pictures of mountains, or you really like jazz.. even though your friends think you listen to green day all day. Or your favorite color of underwear :wink: Never anything like your friends B-day, or best friends name, or teachers names, because that stuff can be too easily guessed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Make your password around a particular word, and numbers as well, so its less difficult for people to guess at. Example: Whiteboard251, Dictionary1272 (DO NOT USE THE SAME NUMBER AS YOUR BANK PIN.) Harddrive196, shoeleather267, garden163, and things like that. Try to pick words that are completely disasociated with anything you like (IE: If you play guitar, Guitar444) as these could also be guessed, and if possible, try not to do 222,333,444, ETC, as someone who might guess the word, could also guess the numbers by doing the 9 sets! :? A few more words I thought of... lampshade, telescope, pictureframe, deskjet, tapeplayer, dvdrom. Just incase you cant think of one. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Set a bank pin, and set the deletion time to 7 Days. It's harder for non-membs to get their accounts back as quickly, because they dont have a members payement agreement number, which is kinda like the auto win for getting your account back (Members, see the members bit for info on this. :) ) Dont use things like 1992 IE, year you were born, or the day 1-9-92. Which could also be a B-day. Try to just guess a random number, and NEVER do 1111, 2222, 1234, etc. Things like 5271, and 1916 are pretty good, as they dont repeat numbers, and they don't resemble any important things, IE, bday years. :)

For Recovery questions, and passwords, see the F2P guide, as these things don't differ, also see the F2P guide for pin making. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One BIG thing that gets members their accounts back NEARLY INSTANTLY, is SAVE YOUR AGREEMENT INFO! When you sign up to be a member, print out the page, and save it, put it in a drawer, or a safe place where you'll remember it! Having this number INSTANTLY gets your account back. It's like an auto win, and the hackers can't change it ONE BIT. :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you're a member but you don't have the info anymore, just cancel your members for a day, then renew it, or check the e-mail you registered the account to at the begginging of the month, for the $5 transaction, which also includes your agreement number. 8)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hope this helps everyone stay safe! And happy Runescaping! :D

Bump :(

For #2, the #s at the end might be hard for some people to remember, I'd suggest doing a phrase in fact and "leeting" some of the words, ie. "I am great" turns into EyeAmGr8! which isn't too hard to remember and still a nice password.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For #3, this is a good safeguard against people online guessing your pin, just mm-dd your birthday. Since there is no 19th month, your birthday will not be like a year. Note: If you were born on let's say April 6th, you'd make your bank pin 0406.

this is actually a really nice job explaining things to newer players. some, but not all of the older players have the common sense to be original yet creative with things

Or you could just not tell anyone your password.

You forgot recovery questions :)
