After the recent update, Jagex may have you change your password if it is one of the 500 most commonly used ones. Just out of curiosity, I googled "500 most common passwords", and found a nice compiled list. I found it interesting. Somethings are common sense... other I just don't understand.

Also, these can't be all the one's Jagex blocked, because many are too short to be RS pass's.

Here is an HTML-list, in case you want to "CTRL-F" and see if a certain one is on there.

I'm surprised how many dirty words there are. That thought never occured to me.

-Some things I noticed was that "0" was on there twice. Perhaps one is a Capitol O and the other a Zero, or whoever compiled this used a spreadsheet, and words ending in Zero would be automatically cut-off, because they are not significant figures.

-Another thing. What the heck is "abgrtyu". 6 of the characters are adjacent on a QWERTY keyboard, but other than that, I don't know what it means. Runescape does not consider it one of their top 500, because I was able to create an acc. with that pass.

ncc1701 The ship number for the Starship Enterprise
thx1138 The name of George Lucas’s first movie.
qazwsx Follows a simple pattern when typed.
666666 Six sixes
7777777 Seven sevens
ou812 The title of a 1988 Van Halen album
8675309 The number mentioned in the 1982 Tommy Tutone song


I can only remember myself having 1 of these passwords, which was #1, the most common one. Back in the good ol' days when I played Neopets rofl =)



BTW, this is just interesting info... it has nothing to do with password scamming, etc. Especially since these are COMMON password, and Jagex will have us change them anyways.

 

Done, thanks.
