There has been some comment in the Discussion Board that the overall tone of many of the postings has gotten ruder. I have set up a survey to determine whether posting to the Discussion Board should be for registered users only. On the one hand, users would then own their own words (like on the Well) and would have to deal with the consequences of what they say in the board. On the other, anonymity has been a tradition of both the Internet and this Board. Please vote and share your opinion.
