Hello,

Account password registration should allow a large maximum password length. I think all sites should allow up to 2048 character passwords,
as short passwords are becoming easier and easier to to crack and text does not take up much room on your servers.

An example: a bluelight password reset sent to my email was QwNL8Cpc
According to https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/forms/passwordwin.html that password could be cracked in 2 hours.

Anyway, besides that point. If I tried to set my password on bluelight to anything larger than 32 characters, it works but then tells me my password is wrong when I try to log in.
It should at least warn that you cannot input a password larger than (32? or so, characters) or better yet allow for larger passwords and also warn when one is over the limit.

Thanks
