Is resetting passwords that bad, or why was this option even added there? Will the message disappear after 120 days?

I know it may be added as a security measure like scam or buy-sell accounts, etc. But when a person sees that message, he or she may get a bad impression of the account. He or she may not trust the person, or the account may not get much interaction. Because I chanced password, now I'm tagged with that message.

Don't change your password then. Or stake your address and sign a message if you need to prove you're still you.

I don't think you needed a whole new thread for this.

Well, I am the original owner. I created this account in about a year ago. That time I couldn't be active due to some personal matter. But now that I'm totally free, I wanna dedicate my time to learn more.

p.s: The email is unchanged, I just had to reset password due to the custom ROM testing.
Just do not spam, plagiarize or violate other rules of this forum, but make quality posts and you will be good.

I have reset my password before and there is nothing bad there as long as I do not change hand on this forum. But if someone left his account and not visiting this forum again, but password rest and visit this forum, some people may first noticed him if his account has changed in the way he is posting, which indicates that the original owner is not the one using the account to post.

And yes, the message usually disappears after a short period of time. 30 days, I guess, will be enough to warn users of the change.
On bpip.org, it will remain there.

I have changed my password before two times and there is nothing bad there as long as I do not change hand on this forum. But if someone left his account and not visiting this forum again, but password reset and visit this forum, some people may first noticed him if his account has changed in the way he is posting, which indicates that the original owner is not the one using the account to post.

Changing your password is for your own account protection, and I don't see anything bad in that.
I believe the viewing option was added there to warn other users of the changes that have happened to the account recently; both email and password changes usually appear on the user's trust page.

A change in the user's password most often draws attention to the account, as there might be a possibility of the account being hacked and ownership changed.

Hello everyone. I recently noticed that by using the https://bpip.org/ site, you can check whether that person recently changed his or her password or not. Also, you can check by viewing the profile itself. It will say, 'This user's password was reset recently.'

Is resetting passwords that bad, or why was this option even added there? Will the message disappear after 120 days?

I know it may be added as a security measure like scam or buy-sell accounts, etc. But when a person sees that message, he or she may get a bad impression of the account. He or she may not trust the person, or the account may not get much interaction. Because I chanced password, now I'm tagged with that message.

Why have I changed my passwords several times?

1. I'm a custom ROM user. So I have to factory reset my phone in order to test the new build. I recently flashed several Roms to test.
(Clean flash is mandatory to avoid bugs)

2. I don't have any second devices. So I can't just have it logged in on another device.

3. I easily forget. One time I even forgot or confused my username because I used 0 (zero) instead of o in my username.

4. I always think of BTT as a highly valuable platform. I'm in fear that my BTT account would get compromised someday if I saved my password in an online place. So I never saved my password anywhere. (I know I should have used a diary to note down my password.)

p.s: By the time of my writing, I don't remember my password. Tongue
