Why are user passwords stored in the database in a way that you can recover them? In the interest of security I suggest that user passwords are hashed in a suitable manner.

I say we use good old fashioned honesty instead.

I can't really think of anything of particular interest on this site that would require secure passwords.

Fact is a lot of people use the same password on more than 1 site, and it's better to be safe than sorry. Tbh it's common practice on most websites to store passwords encrypted.

I just didn't want anyone to know your REAL mail count!

it's embarrasing having only 2 mails, and I didn't want you to have to go through the mental grief!
