Bug type: Login (Steam)
Brief bug summary: Login from Steam launcher fails if password contains '%'

More details:
When trying to log in from the Steam launcher, I found that the "log in" button doesn't work if the password contains a percent sign. This is not against Nexon's password guidelines to my knowledge, as I was able to set my password to one containing that symbol. However, if a percent sign is present in the password field of the Steam launcher login form, it is not possible to submit the form. Removing the symbol allows the log in form to be submitted properly (but that doesn't help if the password contains it).

Because of this restriction, I was forced to change my password in order to play the game.

This issue does not affect the Nexon Launcher.

Steps to reproduce:
See above

Date and time of the incident: April 11, time unknown (EDT)
