The "Greek Life" forum is the only forum on greekchat.com which is open to unregistered users. All of the other forums, general forums & group-specific forums, can only have messages posted by registered members of the website. "Greek Life" was opened to unregistered users for the people who have no intention on registering but still have *something* to contribute to the forums (some Internet users prefer not to register on any websites). Also, this forum gives unregistered users the chance to see how the forums work before registering (kind of like a test drive).
Recently, some unregistered users have used this *feature* in order to post negative comments anonymously. I can understand wanting to require registrations in order to put an end to the negative comments, but I think positive posts by unregistered users outnumber the negative by far (but maybe not recently). However, this does not mean unregistered users will always be able to post as I may change this in the future. For now, I am going to see how things develop & will make changes if needed. By the way, I may have an idea for a possible solution - I will post details on this later in the week.
