This thread is frustrating. Everyone seems more interested in nitpicking the specifics of what OP is saying and are ignoring that a forum sends you your password (not an automatically generated one) in an email on registration.

You actually agree with me more than you disagree. If they have the mentality to send out clear text passwords, they probably don't hage the natural talent to design an asynchronous system.
