I think he's saying that you can save a new user in the backend (Users > Users Manager > Add New User) without supplying a password. Although this seems to be the case, actually a randomly generated password is sent to the newly created user's email inbox. I'm guessing @dj985 didn't use a valid email address during testing to notice this.

Unfortunately your screenshots have not uploaded successfully.
I am really not sure what you are saying though. Of course a user account without a password cannot work.
