It's the only thing that is going to be foolproof. Giving out passwords free to everybody makes no sense, why even have a password? Reading should be for everybody, but posting only for those with a password. This how most message boards and forums work afaik, so nothing new or unusual about this. Whether the situation requires this "drastic" measure is another issue all together. >>Of course this requires some work for the moderators, but it seems to work on >>for other forums so it probably doesn't require as much work as one might fear. >>Adding two or three more moderators to help out with this could also be >>possible. > >Basically, the moderators should not have to do anything most of the time. >IMO-YMMV.
