It isn't up for discussion, and it never really was.  Drop it.
Isn't this a discussion group?

That it is!


How does this discussion go against the terms of use?

Hummm, did I somehow imply that it did?


I don't think it was a good idea either, and nobody can make you implement
anything, but why can't he discuss it, that's what I don't understand.

All right, fine.  I forgot the "please."

Scott, please drop this -- you're beating a very dead horse.  In my best
estimation, the password checker is appropriate (if not a shade lax) for the
level of security needed going forward here over the coming months/years.
Other sites are indeed more lax, for various reasons.  I really do not
believe there is anyone who will be unable to find and remember a good
password, especially if they follow the advice here:

That is about all I have to say.  I really would rather not spend my time
arguing over trivialities like this.  Please respect that.  If you want to
keep talking about it, fine, but don't expect me to take any of it seriously.
