Password strength

Post by RobotCaleb »

I'm curious about why there is a limit on characters allowed in password creation when creating an account at projecteuler.net. (Not the forums)

It really irritates me when banking institutions place arbitrary and unnecessary limits on what I type for my password (Number and letters only, exactly 6 characters, etc), but when technically able communities do so (such as this one), I just get confused.

Thanks!
