And they don't tell you all this at once, they make you type in the password and send the form like 5 times until you know what the fuck they want.

Are people actually bothered by this?
It's far more of an issue if the password has a max character limit.

I'm pretty sure most sites that demand a maximum length store the passwords unhashed in plain text, fixed-width columns.
If they were hashing the password, length would not matter.

I get why they want 8 or more characters but limiting to 16 characters is just fucked up.

Honestly I used to use the moniker Hemlock Groves because it sounded similar to Sherlock and I thought I was being a clever kid despite groves meaning street.

Just use a passphrase you dip. They are easy to make long enough to be a bitch and a half to brute force while still being easy to remember.

It decreases security by a LOT. People are lazy so most people have 8 long passwords. If you wanna dictionairy or brute force your way in you can now skip everything thats < 8 and just start at 8.

>mfw the registration form took my password literally but the login form HTML-escapes my password

>>57082242
Why don't you use a password with at least one capital letter, one number and a special character by default?
