Your Password is Weak

For some reason, this was hilarious for about 30 seconds. It’s because of the emphasis of the word “weak” as I was reading that line.

Your password is too WEAK. Just like your FACE.

I might have added some emphasis. And a few words.

Though, this error message is vague. What is not “too weak”? More than 8 characters? Capital letters, symbols, numbers? Are users just supposed to guess?

Luckily, one of my passwords worked, and so on my merry way I went.

Yeap. Now back to work.
