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

    Of course. You receive the password in plain on account creation, do the process you need, and then store it hashed.

    That’s fine and normal

        When you create an account you type your password in. This gets sent to the server, and then it is hashed and stored

        So there is a period of time where they have your unhashed password

        This is true of every website you have ever made a password on

            I’ve never even heard of the game studio I’m not defending them, I was replying to the person who said the company should never have your unhashed password, and explaining that they have to at some point in the process

          So why would an agent at Larian have man-in-the-middle access between the password being sent to the server, and the auto-hash?
