Regarding the birthday of LissaBee and LissaB33, molossus said in chat:

| molossus: Hello j2brown! Both accounts have the same birthday and similar avatars plus the same password, but on the other hand e-mail accounts and IPs she used are different. Still I think it was one person. |
I'm now wondering (and concerned) how passwords are stored in the database? In todays standards, you should not be able to tell that two passwords are the same. |

To be clear
Passwords are stored encrypted in the database, admins and mods can only see if passwords are the same, not what the passwords are. _________________ That's the beauty of music. They can't take that away from you. (Andy Dufresne)
