When commas and semicolons aren't allowed special characters
I used to use a system that was perfectly happy to let you use a semicolon when setting the password, but then login would fail if you did.
When you enter an apostrophe, and the site returns a 500 response stating you are trying to attack it. (And yeah, it's always 500, not 400.)
