Well obviously it's your mod... I'm just saying I think putting a 10 or 14 character minimum on regular user account on most forums is like putting a bank vault door on an empty shed in a rural area... Yeah it's more protection, but for what?
You have to balance security vs. the user experience and most forums don't need this type of security on their standard accounts. Admins need to realize IMO most of their sites aren't all that important in the scheme of things. If it was a bank account or medical history then yeah, by all means, enforce strong passwords... but a forum to talk about cars or art or video games? I'd be more concerned about frustrating new and existing members with password requirements far surpassing any bank account I've ever used and having them stop coming.
I use KeePass myself but I'm not going to go through the effort of making a new entry for every single forum I'm a member of. LOL.
Anyway, my suggestion is an option to enforce for mods and admins only... all other opinions aside.
