Account password creation

When I initially tried to make my account, it told me my chosen password was a part of a data breach on another site. [CONCERN INTENSIFIES]

I want to create an account with my same password so that I don’t get a headache. But yikes.

So I finally decided to create an account. Even then, I can’t change my password to what I want. Instead, I got this: “We’ve detected that the password you entered has been compromised during a data breach of another website.”
 
What data breach of what website?

You can check if your Password has been in a data breach here  
If you want to check if your Email has been in a data breach check it here
 
If your Email got pwned then it will even show you where that breach came from.
 
My spam email and old Password for example got leaked by someone that hacked the game Town of Salem.

I’d have to ask an admin but I’m fairly sure the registration checks against those leaked passwords linked by Korato. Its not a bad idea to check your email and passwords there, and if you find a breach your account was involved in take measures to secure any sites you may have used the same password on as the breach occurred. Also consider avoiding using any passwords on that list even if a site allows it as those passwords are more likely to be used in brute force attacks.

Wouldn’t those be dictionary attacks?

I’d advise everyone to make up new passwords for everything, the more random the better, and keep them in a simple notebook. You’ll memorize the ones you use with any frequency quickly enough.

I tried every password i can think off and still the same
