Some people on this site, (you know who you are), have their passwords set to be the same thing as their login name.

As some of you may know such a case lead to a hijacked account on this site in the past few days.

I ask you to please make sure your password is not something obvious. It doesn't have to be a marvel of secure encryption, but at least make sure it's not anything that is printed on your user info page in plain text.

I know that some people create their accounts quickly just to get through it and be able to post, and maybe you're not even sure you want to stick around for long at that point, so you just type in the same thing in the password field as the login field. But, please, if you are still here, and you are reading this post, and you are advancing in ranks on this site, make sure your password in not an obvious one.

The damage that a hijacker would cause is mostly to your comments, problems and reputation.
