Do you just forget about it and start allover again or do you try to retrieve it??? Well... I've tried to retrieve some passwords from google, but it seems to useless... It's easier to start a new account. What do you people do???

yes, i often forget it. normally the sites i'm a member of give me an option to ask my forgotten password. they will send it to my email account.

use the retrieve password. that is the best to get my password reset or back. :) if all else fails - maybe after several tries, i'd give up and create a new account, most probably.

Well, if I think I will get it right soon, I will try again. Otherwise, I will just use the "forget password" link...

I normally try to recover it through the "recover password" section but even after that I could not do it, i will just bump it up and go for a new one.

HI there.. First of all, I rarely lose my passwords, and if that indeed happens, then ofcourse I retrieve it.. Why wud I want to start a new account all over again when there's a system to retrieve the old or lost passwords..

If that will happen to me the thing that I will do it thinks deeply about mu password and if I really cant think about it I try to recover it by requesting for the password by answering the required questions. They will gonna sent it to my email account. I cant really forget my email username and password because I will always remember it for the rest of my like because it is special to me.

write passwords down so as to not forget next time. I've never had problems retrieving passwords... so I usually just retrieve it if I can't remember it. But I'd rather not start a new account because then I'll end up having a bajillion accounts floating around and that would just be bad.

I often forget I set up the password, but are unimportant information, I will re-apply for an account, the re-establishment of a password, the password even if it is all right to forget, because I will record them in a book, if we forget the show stand will know .

I have tried this one a lot of times and what I do is try and try by using possible combinations of my password. If I can't really log-in, I do always retrieved my password. And so far, I have always do it successfully. I don't want to start a new account, because the info I have inside my accounts will all be lost and I don't want it to happen. It would be more useless if you loss your account without taking effort retrieving it.

I've always try to retrieve my password but if I can't figure it out I do make a new account.. I hate doing that but that's really the only way to do it sense you can't figure it out and the site won't help either...

I've used a total of 5 passwords in my entire life, and no one has ever been able to guess them. So if I forget which one I used I try all of them. If that doesn't work, I do the "I forgot my password" thing.

Normally I try to retrieve them, but sometimes you have to go through the security questions that you set when you first got an account. I normally forget these too =P In this case, I just start all over again =]
