I know security is important but your passphrase requirements are kinda contraproductive.
It is fine if you recommend a password phrase which meets your requirements but you should allow people to use less secure passwords. For instance, I usually choose whole sentences. Those are secure enough according to security experts and even recommended over complex passwords because they can be easily remembered but still be complex enough to not be hackable easily. You passphrase requirements are contraproductive to my security model. I may be able to change a few letters to numbers but adding a special character and a capitol letter are just over the top. Please make this optional, I am not securing my bank account here.
