Julie VognarI disagree with MW about the format--I think it's great! You can start a thread, or respond to one;, you can have a fight; you can post as long as you want, or as short. The chatroom is nice, too.
As for registration--how many times have I wanted something, or wanted to say something, and have been discouraged by having to make up a user name and password, and perhaps filling out a long form? Allowing first-time readers, who have been given this web addres but are not yet sure they want to register, to post is a GREAT IDEA.
As for policing, Elliot cannot be expected to be everywhere at once, or read each post as it is added during the day. If someone is calling you a GDSOB, you may have to call it to his attention, at which point it will disappear.
Great job, Elliot!
Search engine would be nice; sounds like it might be awfully complicated. This isn't Google, after all.
