I agree that there is a need to button up a few people that have posted on the board, but I am not sure ip logging is the best way. If the ip will be hidden, I'm all for it. With the idsa snooping around, I for one have no desire for them to be able to find out who I am (ok, no flames, I'm not the ONLY person who doesn't own every machine for which I have roms...). I think to post should require a logon and password, and only the moderator(s) would be able to see the details on the people that post. During the registration process, a temp password could be e-mailed to the registrar thus verifying the addy, like ebay does during signing up for their services. This would also stop someone from posting a message under someone elses nick. I also don't care for the commercial posts as of late either. If a product doesn't get enough attention on the main page, make a better product. But keep it out of the msg boards unless you have something to contribute. Ok, enough of my rambling... Thanks for all you do Saint, you have an outstanding site.
