I’m trying to create a new password and I’m entering a 9-character long password and I’m getting a validation error saying it needs to be at least 8-characters long.

Cant change password, it looks that “Ysr9ifc4utVjyN89crhobX54” and similars are not unique enough…

Really, it pisses me off to be forced to use another password AND have a fail system that dont let you do that

I am sorry for your frustration, and I do understand it, too! All I can suggest is that you contact Support. They can help and the turnaround is very prompt!

I really think this must signify a bug. And while you are welcome to contact Support by filing a ticket through the “Ask a Question” tab on that linked page, I’d like to move this to the Bugs Forum so that the team can review this for possible remedies.
