Please Encrypt Player Password in PBEM

As a player who has been cheated in the past I am always seeking to play games that are secure and as cheat proof as possible.

I was led to believe this game was very difficult to cheat. But all a cheater has to do is open the PBEM file in a txt editor and his opponents password is plainly visible.

Please Frank encrypt the passwords.

Otherwise I am enjoying the game.

Thanks Frank. I am going to call off my PBEM's until this is fixed. I am not insinuating bad things about anybody. Its just once you have been burned you tend not to trust unknown opponents.

Yes, I was alerted to that problem on Saturday and have worked out a new scheme for it. It'll be fixed in the first patch.

Also, when might the revised manual be available, please? I am holding off until there is a good, comprehensive manual.
