The login page currently has a button for "Guest".
I would like to suggest changing the button to a message saying to use "guest" for the login name and leave the password blank.
People on this forum take privacy seriously, and though trusting of each other, don't like the idea of automated email harvesting.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but with a one-click entry won't automated web crawlers find their way into the forum? I'm thinking it's possible for our discussions to appear on Google or other search engines.

That would give them the ability to post messages as a default, and they could change the password and lock other 'Guests' out.
Only registered members may post messages.
It will also become a moot point in the future.
But, thanks for the provoking of thought.
