With most people, there's one password for everything. A password to a forum account could open many, many doors.
Besides, people don't necessarily need to break in your email, they can break in any server between the one @Larian and your mail server!
I do agree with that. It's quite scary how someone could potentially lose everything, through just one password being leaked/hacked/broken into. I still think it's not the best idea to send passwords in visible text through emails tho
