IF a player knows, which is a pretty big assumption, wouldn't you say? They deserve to be protected. Using a common theme password is common amongst MOST people. Usually bad actions are a result of tensions, like, lets say a staff member hates a player, then hes like OH i want to RUIN HIS LIFE BY STEALING HIS EMAIL. So then he intercepts his bank password for clues on how he formulates his passwords, and gets to random cracking attempts. He is now more equipped to do so then before, thus making the poor player have a disadvanteous position due to this script. Just saying your players are "Imbesiles" and therefore deserve to be open to this risk is a horrible thing to say, and bad service as staff! You seem to be unaware how many people would assume their information is safe and trust the server they love, and here you are saying its their fault if they use something wrong. At least inform them that staff can see these passwords.
