Whoa......Stop the world and let me off, we actually agree on something!!!

I think there are enough filters already in place:

1. Parents (If they are doing there job)
2. Common sense
3. Moderators

And I agree with the other Ledgies that it would be a bad idea to make the
forums only available to registered users. I'm a member of another fansite
that makes you sign in to see some of the post. It just makes it a pain in the
a$$. And I think the Ledge would have less members, at least new ones if
it goes that way. I doubt I would have become a member here if you had to
be registered/sign in to read the posts. Hey....wait a minute, that might be
the reason to change things here.
