Lowering Forum Password Requirements

[Valtam]

Thank you for your feedback. There are other considerations here. For example, tough passwords as an anti-spam/bot measure. Before I increased the password strength requirement, we were inundated with bots joining the Forum. After I changed the criteria, bot registration came to an almost stand-still. It's also not a bad idea to be an educator of using good, strong passwords, that's another role I see myself in here. We state this importance in the Help Manual, and there are threads on it here.

P.S. I love XKCD!
