You wanna know why *I* will not be contributing to your site? 

"In order to contribute you must be registered".

I am so sick and tired of accounts and passwords that unless I really
really want what's at the site, I don't register.

Well stop making it so damn bureaucratic to use it then.  The way to
get users is to be user friendly.  Giving users one more account and
password to remember is not user friendly.

Wow.  Now there is a good attitude.  Spam mailing lists until you get
traffic to your website.  Sure you don't want to get into peddling
porn and spmming for that?

Let me see...

$ telnet mail.metalab.unc.edu. 25
Trying 152.2.210.118...
Connected to trance.metalab.unc.edu.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 trance.metalab.unc.edu ESMTP Sendmail 8.11.6/8.11.0; Sat, 16 Feb
2002 22:05:31 -0500
VRFY abuse
250 2.1.5 <abuse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Will have to keep that handy.
