It's too hard to think of passwords, so how about a feature in the Modify (or Create New) Forum thing where we can just click the button and it will put a randomly generated password into the box for us. Then in like General Configuration (under the admin cp Board Settings) we can specify how many characters should be included in random passwords what characters it can use (alphabet upper case, alphabet lower case, numbers, symbols [specify which symbols]). There should already be a somewhat similar feature for if they have the Send Random Password feature on for new registrants and this may be able to be used for other things.

  1. I think this would be bloat. A quick search of "password generator" on the internet reveals many tools you can use, for example: http://www.pctools.com/guides/password/
