    Your account on Digital Point Forums has been locked because someone has tried to log into the account with the wrong password more than 5 times. You will be able to attempt to log in again in another 15 minutes.

    You should change your password regularly.

    Or maybe someone loves your account more than he hates you. ;)

    Notice the usernames that are geting this. They start with a number or da letter A. The dude's just going through in alphabetical order.

    Yes, if you're paranoid, always change ur password once a month. While if you use a password like...fj5g7HjG74yhGH1337H8h5, you can go a lifetime with out having to change it!!! Now, work on memorizing something like that!!! :D

    Now for a web site, you have *NO* excuse for *not* having a password like that!!!

    Did you stick 1337 in there on purpose? :rolleyes:

    I rarely change my passwords because mine are always quite secure.

    It is not uncommon. I just received the same attempt from the IP you listed. There are always scammers looking to find ways to rip people off. Chances are looking at our user names, they are going through the alphabet.
