I just tried it with 'abcabcabc' as my password. It claims passwords are case sensitive, but both 'abcabcabc' and 'ABCABCABC' work and any variation ('ABCabcaBc' works). Variations based on a phone pad don't seem to work. '123123123' or 'bacbacbac' don't work. I also tried only changing one letter.

>Must contain one letter and one number

Also not true.

>Cannot contain three repeating character

Also not true. I changed my password to 'qqq123123' and could login just fine. Something like 'zzz123123' does not work.

I put way too much effort into this.

So for all those saying that we should just "trust the engineers know what they're doing" this is a pretty damning refutation as far as I'm concerned.
