I don't ever make my passwords the same theme, but MOST people do.
It doesn't really matter if anyone sees what password you put as your password for your Graal bank account unless they feel like assuming you use that same password for other things and bother checking into it, which is an unlikely situation if you have trustworthy staff.

Hell, anyone could easily send a keylogger over to another person to steal their information if they wanted to. You think most Graalians could even bother to learn about anti-virus protection? And even with that there are ways to bypass detection.

Yes, but you make it sound like it was done for each custom function.

It's not really a big deal, it's easily fixable.

That's no excuse not to have such systems.

If the player knows it's possible for staff to see their password and they still choose to use a similar password as those that they use on other sites, then I'm sorry to say this, but they deserve to get their accounts hijacked for being such imbeciles.
