Reserved keywords for usernames and passwords
I've just been informed that it's "industry standard" to prevent users from using common and easily guessed passwords, and our implementation of this "standard" is to make a list of strings that cannot appear within any user's username, password, or password hint. Here are some examples of items on that list, progressing from reasonable to WTF:
admin
administrator
@dm1n
P@5sword
hello
hello123
test
12345
abc123
changeme
password
smps
bob
twi
hre
mri
ulo
tnuI feel sorry for any user named bob or someone who wants to use something like nightwing as a password, especially considering how non-specific the error message is sure to be.

Survey developer-centric?
I cannot be the only one reading TDWTF whose day job does not involve software development. The survey is kinda narrowly phrased, I can't really answer most of the questions, there should be a N/A option for most of them.

RE: Full article view?
Aha, thank you. I never noticed those links before, always relying on the unreliable links in some of the story blurbs.

RE: Full article view?
When viewing only the short version of each story on the front page, sometimes there is a "Switch to Full Article View" link at the bottom of a story. I click that link, and then I can see the full text of every article on the front page. My front page view stays like that for some length of time, possibly associated with my login cookie, and eventually changes back to the short view. Unfortunately I have been stuck in the short view for a while now, without seeing that link to switch.

Full article view?
Occasionally I get kicked back into summary mode. Often, those times coincide with a lack of any summaries on the front page with the handy "Switch to Full Article View" link. How do I rectify this situation at those times?
