Currently the forum mails the password after creating an account. That's an absolute bad security practice! Just mail the activation link, that's enough.
By the way:
Do you save the password as salted hashes? Please don't save the original password! This describes why (not just for PHP).

I was pissed when I saw my password in plain text and had to create a new one.
