Yeah that nearly makes me want to smash something when it happens. Anyone that silently truncates passwords should NOT do it, or at least truncate the creation AND login forms. Just say the limit and give a error, or handle extra input the way you're supposed to in the enceyption algorithm and hash it to to the correct length. A length limit of say, the amount of bits the encryption key has, like 32/64/128 chracters for 256/512/1024 bit, is reasonable, any other limit is stupid.

Absolutely. I intend to keep browsing on here. Found a few nice places to wander around on and find cool stuff.
