I'd just like to say, throughout my time here at Graal, even with their auto-generated 'safe' passwords, I have never seen so many passwords being stolen as I have here. I don't think it happens much anymore, but passwords being stolen was always a problem at the dawn of P2P(and before). It was the worse I had ever seen, and the passwords were auto-generated(the same way) back then.

i see more accounts being stolen on an game with the initials RS, and other MMORPG's where you choose a password. People use brute force, and since people like to set simple passwords. It's not that hard to take there account.
The accounts getting stolen back then... probably had to do with the security of where the passwords were stored... not what the passwords actually were.
