Setting restrictions on a user's password - is it appropriate?
Theoretical question here:

How do people feel about the restrictions that registration forms have for users' passwords? Meaning, is it wise to make a condition that the user must have a capital letter, a number and a special character? I recognize that those conditions usually would require users to make a more secure password, but would that be annoying to a majority of users (it annoys me that a website assumes I do not have the capacity to create a secure password)? Any opinions one way or the other?
