Previously, @Len Backus covered ways to secure your account here on LongRangeHunting.

We've now implemented further security measures requiring you to reset your password every few years.

I highly recommend you take the time to ensure you are vigilant on your account by providing your updated email address is up to date on your account details page.

If you are being told to reset your password, and you don't remember it, there are extra steps you will need to take.
  1. Log out of the website.
  2. Click on login and forgotten password.
  3. Enter your username or email address.
  4. Follow the steps in your email address to change your password and log back in.
I highly recommend using a password manager built into your browser (how to do it in Chrome) or another app like 1Password or BitWarden.

Here are a few other tips I recommend for everyone:
  • Do not post your email address publicly.
  • Consider occasionally getting a new email address and then updating it on the appropriate services.
  • Never reuse passwords
  • Don't use an intractable payment method (Paypal Friends and Family, Venmo, Zelle, etc.)

We aim to keep everyone safe on LongRangeHunting, but we must all do our part.
