Some players will say that JAGeX has made an update that allows players to not say their password or that the censor blocks player's passwords. this is very true.


The player may say, "Jagex blocks your pass! ******* see?" This is not true. A player's password can only be censored if it is a swear. Also, players must never give out their password. If a player does tell their password, then they are only asking to be [[RuneScape/Guides/Anti-Hack|hacked]]. If you ever do accidentally tell someone your password of suspect they already know it, change the password as soon as you can.
