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

This thread is frustrating. Everyone seems more interested in nitpicking the specifics of what OP is saying and are ignoring that a forum sends you your password (not an automatically generated one) in an email on registration.

    Not sure what you mean here, this is what the forum post said:

    After emailing (admittedly not current best practice), the passwords are hashed and only the hash is stored.
