Change password strength requirement

    Since BuddyPress took over my entire registration, it now won’t even let users register because it demands ridiculously strong passwords.
    Even my own password, which normally is metered in between middle to strong, is shown as too weak.

    How can I edit the strength requirement? The current requirement is a bit too paranoid.

    I think the new password restrictions were a WordPress feature, not BP

    Before I installed buddypress, users could register just fine. I also disabled the default generated password and let users choose their own passwords at registration.
    However, I cannot find that option anymore. If users can only create insanely strong passwords, I’d rather have it back to the automatically generated passwords, but I can’t find that option anymore.

    EDIT: When I deactivate BuddyPress, I get my old registration back, that works.
    I would like the option to keep buddypress, but also keep my old registration.
