# Changing password after the ban

Changing password after the ban

Keeping your account secure is essential — especially after a ban related to password sharing or third-party tools. This guide explains **when and why you should change your password**, and how to keep your avatar safe.

* * *

### Creating a Strong Password

For security, your password should be **unique and difficult to guess**.  
We recommend using:

-   A mix of **letters and numbers**
    
-   Both **uppercase and lowercase** characters
    
-   **Symbols** for added strength
    

> Passwords are **case-sensitive**, so “Hero123” and “hero123” are different.

### If You Were Banned for Scripts & Bots (Third-Party Tools)

If you entered your Travian credentials on an **external website or tool**, your data may have been used without your consent.  
This often causes **bans for script or bot use**, because such tools access the game automatically.

**What to do:**

1.  **Change your password immediately.**
    
2.  Never enter your Travian username or password on non-Travian websites.
    

> These third-party sites can use your credentials to scan the map, find animals, or villages — and any such activity violates the rules.

Changing your password stops these tools from accessing your avatar again.

### If You Were Banned for Password Sharing

If your ban was related to **password sharing**, the first and most important step is to **change your password immediately**.  
Never share it again, and keep it private to avoid future issues.

### Summary

-   Always use a unique, strong password for every server.
    
-   Never use external websites or tools that request your Travian login.
