Encountered on the InterWeb. Unfortunately this is often true and I see a lot of software engineers treat their users like cave-men. Its unfortunate, because it leads to software engineers not listening to their users or changing features as they (software engineers) think is the right way to implement it. Never a good idea.
Respect and trust between the 2 groups is important otherwise you risk building the wrong things for the users.
If you are going to send me password to replace the one I forgot, please do not include extra characters and confuse me.
So the question is: When I try and log-in to my account using the temporary password, do I, or don’t I have to include the square braces around the alphanumeric characters (for those who don’t know, the answer is: you ignore the square braces and use only the characters between them).
Maybe 49 arguments….. ?!!!
It was for a method that was generated using a tool against a database table with 49 fields! Anyways, thought it was way too funny!
