I couldn't find any answer in your app (latest version for Mac) or on your site. (It would send me to your Users Guide, which didn't come up with any hits for "hint" or "get rid of" which showed up on the previous webpage.)

1Password Version: 5.3.2
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: 10.10.4
Sync Type: Dropbox

    I, believe the hint is required now or was it another issue with the hint ?

    If you change your master password, even to the same one you already have, you'll be asked to give a new hint. Enter what you want, even just a space. I think mine just says something like, "Good luck cracking this."

    @Dennis Fahringer: Indeed. As hawkmoth mentioned, you can simply change the Master Password to also change the hint — just make sure you take the opportunity to make your Master Password even stronger (and your hint utter nonsense)! ;)
