>disallow users to choose a password they used previously

I think Epic Game Store hit me with that one the other day. Had to add a 1 to the end.

A common pattern for me is that I create an account at home, and make a new secure password.

Then one day I log in a work but don't have the password on me so I reset it.

Then I try and login again at home, don't have the password from work, so try and reset it back to the password I have at home.
