On passwords: like I outlined to Yosuke-mun above, Route is simply too big, with way too much information to take in, to expect all our new players will have read the FAQ without prompting. That's why we'd rather change the password system instead of doing away with it entirely; we're aware how flawed it is. I hope that clarifies our reasoning on the issue a bit better? Would something like a 'FAQ quiz', as others have suggested--quizzing applicants on parts of the FAQ, such that a veteran player would know and a new player would have to look up--be acceptable to you? Do you think veteran players should be exempt?

You're making plenty of sense, no worries.
