Security internet logic problems...

from Demigod Forums

1) When changing the username, the password is not cleared from the old account.

2) The password is a regular text field not a password field. But it is masked with stars. Which means I can copy-paste a saved password into a text editor and get the full text.

3) (2) leads me to believe that you store the passwords unencrypted on the file system. Please tell me its encrypted even a bit (thought I would hope its more than just a bit).

If you are talking about the password field ingame then yes it is saved unencrypted to a file on your computer. Saved in my documents\games\stardock\demigod
