A Clue to Would-Be Hackers the Username is Not VIEWS

The username for login on this site is NOT “views.” If you try to signin or use the password recovery form, your attempt will IMMEDIATELY be blocked. My firewall protection will stop you if you enter ANY invalid username–before you can even try to cracking the password. But feel free to try any you like. Even if you were able to figure out the username, you won’t crack the password within several trillion centuries using a massive array attack of a trillion guesses a second. So try an easier target.
