Anonymous posting

<< < (2/3) > >>

rickg22:
I suggested to disable anonymous posting for the following reasons:

1. First post!
2. In soviet russia, blocks code YOU!
3. I'm an anonymous coward, you insensitive clod!
4. the GNAA...

You don't expect the forums to remain clean after codeblocks becomes as popular as firefox, do you?

tiwag:
i think anonymous posting should be allowed further on.

-) the few spam-posts can be deleted from the moderator(s) without any comment - nobody cares about

+) but on the other hand - many users of codeblocks had a few good ideas for enhancements
and posted them too - most of them wouldn't have done that if they were forced to create
a new account only for posting their ideas.
maybe some others would use http://bugmenot.com/ instead (as i would do ;-))

Ceniza:
I'll agree with rickg22, even though it could be delayed till Code::Blocks gain enough popularity and problems arise. It has been harmless (that or I've missed the evil ones) by now.

Urxae:
I would like to recommend that even if anonymous posting is allowed, it should at least be temporarily disabled if and when Code::Blocks is mentioned on slashdot (or similar). GNAA etc. are not nice people. :|

rickg22:
Do the forums have captcha systems? You know those that say "enter the secret code: " and show a GIF. They seem to filter out the most garbage due to scripts :) In that case, I would allow anonymous posting since the greatest menace I see are spam scripts.
