If you're allowed to even use these passwords, there's something incredibly wrong with the system you're using. Many systems even have the top 10K used passwords on a blacklist, nevermind the fact that most of these wouldn't get past a standard 8-to-15 character limit.
Would “ guest” be acceptable?
I mean... Do you want a 'guest' on your account?
Waiting for hunter comments
The only systems that I use admin or password for are testing systems that are never going to be actually on 24-7 or carry anything worthwhile, And generally can't even access the outside world anyway.
I just use a string of eight asterisks.
idiots. I go to seven. duh.
What about @drn!n?
needs to be 8 or more characters
Well lookie here, someone doesn't use a leading space for their password
error: invalid character used. Try again.
System.out.println("admin");
