Tips & Warnings

• Choose a unique and fun username that’s “you”—but don’t be too over-the-top. Remember, people will associate you and everything about you with your username, so make sure it’s something memorable in a positive way.
• Don’t give anybody your password. Change your password regularly so others can’t access your account.
