So I was looking up at the details of Simple Machines (the software the forum uses) and found a pretty  cool feature. If you write your password, it automatically protects your security so all other users will just see asterisks (although you yourself see the uncensored text). For example, here's my password:

***********

See? You should just see asterisks if the software is working correctly. I encourage everyone to try it out for themselves below.

I think it only works if you press Alt-F4 before you do it.

I can see your password, NYMillenial. You should probably delete that post (for your own good), and try again pressing Alt-F4 before doing it.

You can only log into my account after deleting System 32 on your computer. It's a security measure I put into place some time ago.

Actually, on second thought, I hope RR1997 doesn't think I actually posted my password.

BklynIlUmInAtI88 is so cringey that it'd probably offend me if he did.
