Every Steemers must be impressed and laughed by the moment you saw those words which are in the picture above. At the same time, it also made us think that why Steemit put the words like that there over and over again and how serious and important your password exactly is.
why password is important
Simply, at blockchain' s world , engineers made no backdoor for anything or anyone , so there is no way to find your lost password like you lost your password in other internet social media. (no way for hacking too)
Steemit account is not as the account of FB or other internet social media. It is valuable as your wallet or passport in the real life. (imagine that you lost everything on the unfamiliar street)
All in all, try your best to not lost and keep your password safe is a kind of huge responsibility to every Steemers!
Is there only one password you should be guard?
There are more password we should to keep them safe. As you open the permissions page, there are four keys showed up, Posting , active, owner and memo. Here you may curious what are those keys' s functionality for
posting: online key that can only vote and post content, less secure but good for logins.
active : online key that can do everything except change owner key, more secure but not save.
owner : master key that can do everything, meant for cold storage.
memo : key used for deriving share secrets to encrypt private communication with.
Suggestion

print your password out and then put somewhere that you can find anytime.
write it down with a pen and then put it somewhere.
copy the password and then Email it to yourself .
put the password into a USB.
In conclusion, password is as important as your life,please take good care of it!
Extra note
According @Xiaohui ' s article ( https://steemit.com/cn/@xiaohui/stongly-suggest-to-dan-and-ned-that-steemit-support-for-qq-or-wechat-verifieation-steemit-qq )(an manager of Steemit Chinese Community) , There is quite difficult to ask 99% of Chinese internet user to join in Steemit by sign up with Facebook or Reddit ,because of Facebook has been blocked up by Chinese government so far. Fortunately, if Steemit would add WeChat or QQ sign up , that would be a huge benefit for bring more Chinese user in. Sincerely hope Steemit to consider this suggestion as well, thank you first here by my heart!!!
