    End the Log-On Requirement?

    Can we end the log-on requirement when all the visitor wants to do is read posted comments?

    yeah i am not sure i understand the issue here. are you referring to yourself, you dont wanna log in to read comments or guests (meaning they dont have an account)

    i think what he meant was someone without an account but still have the ability to read forums.

    sort of like http://clublexus.com/forums/ , lets you read but not post without an account

    EPhatch has been a private forum since before I joined in 2005. One always had to be a member to view anything other than the vendor forums.

    when i joined in 2003, guests could view the entire forum... i apparently was a guest from sept. 02 to march 03 when i joined. i was bouncing around to and from different sites and i found the one i wanted to plant myself to.

    I assume (though have no real idea) the change was instituted when the site was sold?

    i couldnt tell you, the site was sold to Jpax many years ago, i dont recall if that was in 04 or not. since i have been a member, i dont go to the main page when i first sign on, i go straight to the forums. either way, i am guessing now, if they wanna read the hatch, they gotta join the group

    On the 3 main forums I am on (k20a.org, s2ki, and honda-tech), you really don't have to log in to look up the threads. However, you do have to log in to search for information. On this forum, everything is set to private. I think it started back in late 2004.
