I don't understand, you say no email, no password, but they emailed you a password????? Doh! You made my head hurt with that. I do not understand a word of this message!

I much prefer free & open-wheeling forums than tightly controlled, passworded, registered places. Yuk.

So, I go to 4-5 forum sites. I have Hotmail, I'm on several other lists & web services & such.

How in BLAZES am I supposed to manage all those passwords? No way, no way do I want all that. Every one wants a different format of password & username. Can't keep them on the computer, as worms & back-doors will allow identity theft.

Do we really want a password for every web site we visit? Is that the future of the internet?

Just ignore jerks. They are out there, on the streets, in the resturants, on the internt. As adults we need to cope with others in society. Banning people is not a good thing. It needs to be done, but not nearly as often as 'we' want to - in resturants, streets, or web sites!

Don't restrict the rest of us.

You know what happens to pass-word only web sites? They become a snotty clique of like-minded drones, empty of content. It starts innocently enough. There is a trouble maker or 2, and lots of folks just don't read the rules... Would be so nice & easy to keep problems out, and people on course of they had to register.

So, few people who find the web site bother to register, & move on. Those that do forget their passwords, move on to other web sites. Some people are too shy, some are too private to register.

So, far less traffic. The site becomes inbred with the same old people, little new blood.

Then a few people have strong opinions, and all they talk about are those opinions (with no new blood on the web site, nothing else to talk about). Well, we have to ban 'those' people, because they aren't thinking right, their opinions are all wrong.

So, there are less people on the site, but everyone is happy, because there aren't any ads, there aren't any rude comments, their aren't any people with wrong opinions.

Oh, wait, there aren't any people at all!

Blah. Who wants that dull & plain of a life????

Keep it open to all. Adults can handle the trash & deal with life as it comes, the rest aren't much better than the trash, are they?
