Unwanted Posts

[Kent]

I am pleased that flaming is so minimal on BFT. If one wants to see the results of flaming not kept under control, merely visit UFF and see how that site has died as a result of flaming. Being able to post as a Guest is unusual on any sites these days. It is extremely easy to register on BFT and one does not have to give away all of the family secrets when they register (one can pick a user name of their choice, they are not required to list their actual name, and they can list a free email address or no email address at all, and one is set to post). Bear Lake Mack has become a moderator without most of the folks on here ever knowing what his real name is. So registering and remaining anonymous is not a problem on this site. If requiring registration to post will discourage those who just must post flaming posts then I am for it. Having the pleasure of being called names in print on UFF that are not part of my vocabularly, for merely trying to help my fellow fishermen/women, is an experience that I could have gone without. Being allowed to post as a Guest is a priviledge and not a right. Enuf said -- now let's all go fishing.
