TWT - View Single Post - Forced Log-in Question.

pm01 · 11-17-2008, 12:50 PM

Out of personal habit and security I prefer to never leave myself logged-in on any device. I prefer to view/read threads and log-in only when I'm about to post.

I'd like to offer some honest feedback...while I'm not as busy as the President of the United States I do only have a few minutes throughout the day to view/post. When I hit an error message requiring me to log-in I'm more likely to move on to another site than actually sign-on.

It may seem petty but the requirement to log-in just to scan a few threads to see if there's a conversation I'd like to join then log-off again is hindrance sufficient to reduce my visits significantly. I might fit the "frequent browser" definition, but I still consider myself a member and user. I wish this were different but realize I must be in the minority.

I understand why you feel this is the best direction for the site to take and appreciate the explanation.
