Hey @affegutt we would recommend that you not reuse passwords.
If you are being told that the password cannot be used then you will need to use a different one.
Darko - @EA_Darko Hey, thats an insufficient answer. Is there a way to use a previous password? I personally don't see a need to use "Reset Password" every time I attempt to login, as well as going through 8-15 slides of Captchas, just because I can't remember if it was the password I set last week, the week before, the week before that or any other time that I've been locked out of my account for attempting to use one of the 46 old passwords I am no longer allowed to recycle. Any helpful or constructive answer would be greatly appreciated.

Hey @StavrosZhekhov if having issues remembering your password then I would recommend writing down a reminder for yourself. A lot of people find that this helps them to keep track of the various passwords they use.

@EA_DarkoSpectacular answer. I'll just provide that to you here since EA has a indefinite password retention policy that no user should worry about a breach of security. My password today is "123qweASD" please keep it secure. 🙂

Hey @StavrosZhekhov best not to share things like that publicly.
I checked my emails there and after having Origin since day one I've updated or changed my password 5 times. I'd recommend finding one that is unique and memorable to you so that you don't forget it.

Our options are limited - lets just not play EA...

such a bad format, punishes you for forgetting, I had to recent because i rumage between a few passwords for meaningless things like ea, and now all of them are unavailable, thank you for making it 10x harder to manage an account all for the sake of security that was never needed in the first place.
