My brain, unlike you. Obviously they have a way to get people's passwords. You can't talk about people not thinking, telling your players to GTFO is never a smart idea, it's obvious that you didn't get the 1k players to join the server
Sir, using plain password is not safe nor should anyone condone it, making such scripts and ways of getting user passwords means that they have 0 privacy and most of the people use same passwords for all of their account and with such GM/GOD or Owner can gain access to their accounts meaning he would get in trouble.
Otherwise imagine if someone was to gain access to the command/database with plain passwords that are not salted or encrypted if using some other way [MarinaDB] or etc. Imagine having access to the tons of emails and passwords from shadowcore players, most of it could be sold for lots of $$$ and wihtout way of cracking the encrypted data its useless.
Think about what you just said, not even google does it and they are known for their ZERO privacy policy!
