Typically, the account creation will fail without saying why.
Is it because the site is broken? Because I already have an account? Because I used too weird a password? (10 minutes later) ok, it’s because it’s coded by idiots and it can’t handle a 24 character password but a 12 character one works.
I once experienced a site just silently truncating a password that was too long. Such a ridiculous thing to do. It was several years ago, gaming related. I think it might have been Ubisoft, but I’m not sure that I’m remembering that correctly.

I’m sure that it silently happens a lot.
