+1 to making this change.

 

 

I’d request other Phoenix committers to please express their opinion.

Good Morning all

 

I have been noticing that we are starting to get an increase in the number of spam / porn / drug posts on our forums.  I would like to suggest that we remove all the posting abilities for anonymous users from the site,  This includes Ratings, Comments, and Forums postings.  I think going forward we need to validate that our users are legitimate and not trying to game rankings as seen in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=149319.

 

Another reminder that the EPIC wiki can be found here http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/EPIC
