OK, I see that the validation link in the email is there, but could it be clickable so people don't have to copy and paste?

There's a clickable one and a non clickable one (for anyone viewing in a text only e-mail client).

If I remember correctly the clickable link is at the end of the first paragraph

It's just this:

Can you not click on "validation link" text where is says "follow this validation link."?

yes, but it does not automatically fill in the text field, or have it clickable and it says "Your account is now activated" on the forum, and then after a set of time it returns to the forums homepage, like how MyBB is.

It doesn't fill in the text box because it validates the e-mail address without you having to do anything else and then it displays a message telling you that it has done so (I would strongly disagree against having it automatically redirect you to the homepage)
So I'm failing to see what your suggestion/bug is

I click on it though and it asks for the code, once you add the code in, it becomes validated.
