I hate auto-generated passwords... just more crap I have to hunt down and change. If a site auto generates my pass, and also requires an email confirmation link I need to click, I hate the site. Email confirmation is one thing, but I can't see how auto-generating something I should create myself; my login credentials, regardless of how retarded they may be, should be left up to me.

Really, how is "asd%$#908sd!!" as a password different from "fuck" when both can get posted somewhere or pasted into a scraper?
