continue to allow totally anonymous "guest" posters. I have my own arguments for the various options, but what are yours? _________________ - Rob S.

I definitely like the ability to post as a guest -- when we were discussing/piloting the upgrade, several people mentioned how much they hated the registration requirements, and I'm inclined to agree.
First, If you just stumble on the FAQ looking for a random answer, it's a pain to have to register, and you're more likely to stick around if it's a quick and painless process to fire off a post.
Second, it is probably very easy to add the ability to see IP addresses -- moderators and admins already have that ability. It's not a simple flip of a switch, but I can make the mod if we require it.

hey buddy!! lighten up, its just electrons!!! =p
We are trying to make this *YOUR* (not really you/r specifically, you know what i mean...) board/website, as we always have. 100% is not the goal. i dont know where you got that idea.
Its a COMMUNITY site, so we try to make it as easy to use for its users as possible. Something wrong with that? What are you, a Kalifornia Kommie?? =p AHAHAHA! =p
Anyways, points taken, under advisement, filed away, etc. Thanks for the input. :) _________________ - Rob S.

that sounds like a good idea actually. i like the idea of reserving certain "privledges" as it were for regiusers, while still making it as easy as possible for guests to stop in for a quick question. anyways, we'll see how it all turns out. :) _________________ - Rob S.

I live in Kalifornia, yes. This state has too many hippies. I hate hippies. Thus my poke at the state's name. I'm not a resident of this state. ;)
