irby2295y@alexbrooklyn It was nerve racking because I struggled to come up with passwords on my own. But, get this: the site did provide an auto password generator, but half of the passwords it generated didn't even meet requirements.

b3b343775yUmmm excuse me but wtf. I can understand that there is a requirement for a minimum length so users don't use asd or somthing. But I can't stand websites creating stupid rules for their passwords. They don't make shit secure. Maybe they help not so experienced users to find passwords but for me, since I'm using a selfwritten program that spits out passwords for the given domain (based on hashing and salting) I usually have long and random passwords. And then there come those sites that max out passwords at 32 chars top. Even my password that I can remember in my brain is longer than that. Seriously fuck website owners and their password bullshittery

bahua129045yAll I see here is guidelines for building a brute force tool. With a max of eight characters, they're hardly necessary though.

🤪 They keep thier passwords in the clear.
have fun looking for the sql injection! -
saas13045yWell, after a point, the more rules you create the easier it gets to brute force the shit.

Pyjong10935y@Voxera Do you mean add non-unicode as in, now you can't possibly create a password
-or-
now one character has to be one of those invalid values in each table? -
Is there a place in the web which collects such password rules and gives them a wtf rating?
There should be!
My suggestion:

I found a site once that didn't tell you there was a maximum length and instead just stripped those characters off on submission so your password was short enough. When I discovered what was happening I was livid.

So, among the ridiculously long list of password requirements, password is not case sensitive BUT it has to contain uppercase and lowercase letters?
