[quote=PolyesterTroll][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Jeff - do you think you'd get nearly as many hits, thus income, if the site was converted overnight to a registered one?  Let's be honest -- The anonymity is what makes it popular, just like twitter.  He can talk all day about how "difficult" it is, but my bet would be that this archaic platform is financially beneficial to him.  And hey, if he's just giving people what they want? [/quote]

I think usage would drop and that of course would negatively impact revenue. But, most of those arguing for registration only want it for the Political Forum which would have less impact on revenue. However, the issues I outlined are real. If it was just a matter of flipping a switch, I would flip it and then flip it back again if it didn't work out. But, it's a lot more than flipping a switch.

People who can't solve this simple issue don't deserve to have a web business.  :twisted: [/quote]

You could prove your commitment to registration by registering yourself. Or, I can make things easy by adding a username to the hundreds of posts you've already posted. Just let me know. [/quote]

Oh yes, definitely add a username to the "hundreds of posts" I've posted. Better yet, block me. But are you really sure it's me? Wouldn't want to out someone innocent, you know?  :twisted: [/quote]

Just to be clear, you want me to add a username to your posts?  For instance, this post discussing your search for a primary care physician?
