A new feature/requirement was put in place yesterday by our host neighborhoodlink , it is a one page one time registration . I have e-mail them to complain about it so that it would not discourage neighbours to add their posting . It took me less tan a minute to register and receive my regitration number so it is not too bad .
The purpose of the registration is to discourage anonymous unproper messages.

Use another computer

I refuse to register. Though I rarely, if ever post, I now use a neighbors computer. Just watch the hit number drop off now.

And, being firm believer, schooled in our Constitutional Right to Free Speech, I will not be regulated.

What SHAME.

registration

As I posted I manage this web site and was surprise by this registration process and I complain immidiately as I am very pleased to see the large number of discussions and replies . I feared of course that some would be shy or reluctant to register, although like I said ,the registration process is not intrusive ( basically Your name, address and e-mail address )and not to be sold to any organization.
The reply from Neighborhood Link was prompt and indicated that the registration was a step to introduce new features such as petition online, online polls ... the registration would only allow one vote per registered user .
Once you have registered you do not have to it again.
