GUEST above, I think you are overrecting to being Guest. In the first instance, it has been stated more than once that this is only a temporay solution and none of us know what the final soulution will be.

The situation was not caused by Mudcat but by the actions of one Mudcatter who apparently thought that pretending to be someone else was a joke. Regardless of motives, I believe that impersonating somebody else is a serious matter and that action needed to be taken fairly quickly to put a stop to it, especially in view of the recent outbreaks of paranoia that we have witnessed.

The problem with the cookies is unfortunate and I don't know your situation but in some cases it is possible to set your browser up to only accept cookies from certain sites e.g. On Internet Explorer, I think you could make Mudcat a Trusted Site and set the security for Trusted sites to accept cookies.
