I belong to a list that requires registration to post, and one of the rules is, You Must Sign Your Full Name To Every Post. People who continually refuse to sign their name have their posts removed.

The other side of the coin is - and this is the part I don't like - if the moderators don't like what you have to say, they'll edit or delete your posts. Now, I can see editing/deleting posts that don't follow the Rules of the Forum. But just because you don't like what the person says? No - unless it's riddled with profanity or vulgarity or something like that.

I don't care if someone wants to be a GUEST - what I don't like is when said GUEST's only goal is to get under someone's skin. And as some have already stated, sometimes there are members who do the same thing.

I'm not against mandatory registration. I also think people should just be nice to one another. :-)
