Tip of the day: If you don't want to receive private messages, set user mode +D. You can also force it on all users.

Or, if you only want to allow private messages from people who are identified to Services then set +R.

If you still want to use a password then here are some hints:

  • Use mixed uppercase, lowercase and digits, such as Whbviwf5.
  • Do NOT use the same password anywhere else, like your e-mail account, bot password or on other internet sites.
  • Hash the password ("encrypting passwords") so it's not in plaintext in the configuration file. For a working example see using an argon2 password in the vhost block.
