registration requirements for posting

Hello.

I was just googling a problem and came across your forum. I found a post by another user whose question was unanswered (regarding Linux network interface aggregation). I know the answer, and I can help them.

However, your system requires me to register and log in to post.

I am not willing to do this. As a result of your must-register-to-post policy, you are putting your site and its members at a disadvantage, as I'm sure there are lots of others with knowledge to share but who simply wish to impart their knowledge and leave, rather than sign up to a community.

Having anti-spam (capcha questions etc) measures should be enough for users to post anonymously. What's the difference between signing up, posting, and deleting my account, compared to leaving a single anonymous post? Other than the effort for me - which I am not willing to endure.

I hope you take this into consideration next time you review your posting policies.

Thanks,
Idris D Wilkinson,
