You know, there is no such thing as a perfect system. I vote for the path of least resistance. It's not like we had to read through 4 or 5 paragraphs to figure out this.
Additionally, the added work of undoing a register -- Unca's glued to his monitor enough as it is. Astounds me since we have a cast of seemingly thousands at work and it takes a comparable eternity to get a response. (
EVERY entry, Unca?!? My poor dyslexic brain just got a headache!!
)
And let us consider the whole point of this website provided free for our use by the Pettits and Co (not sure if Unca's name is Pettit). For the very small percentage of spammers Unca DOESN'T catch before we do, this is the first time I've even STUMBLED upon a spammer here (in my sage 2 months of TSFL). So, I have to conclude that the fact that those guys are out there and, like mosquitos, we can't avoid them all, it really has no measurable impact on my enjoyment of this site.
One final thought. I used to be tech savvy back in the day when Basic was big. I've tried to keep up, but a lot of this is just plain not second nature to me. Ask my sister. Maybe it's adult development. Maybe it's the dyslexia and it just doesn't make visual sense first couple times around. And again maybe, if not like me, folks are just trying to decide if it's the program for them and the thought of registering is just too much of a commitment -- and that closes the door on their courage.
On the other hand,
enjoy your eveing, all.
