Does it create any problems anywhere if you delete a user account once the user has posted in a forum?

Any posts created by that user would be set as being posted by a 'Guest'.

It's best to suspend a member account rather than delete it, this way when combined with Email Activation it would prevent the member signing up again with the same member name and email address.
