Larion Studios forum stores your passwords in unhashed plaintext. Don’t use a
password there that you’ve used anywhere else.

I’d be more worried if someone who uses the internet to such a degree that they use Lemmy over Reddit, on a programming forum, didn’t get the reference. This is famous hacker lore at this point.

Oh, I’ve seen people do that crap on RuneScape back in the day. Not sure I’ve ever seen the meme though.
