there has been several posts lately by "identity thieves". Most other fora in this area require registration including e-mail address (which is not published). Is it time for required registration?

In general, with the advertisements and posers, I'm inclined to agree that the time for forum registration is now. Here's a quick and dirty idea.
1. User registers. 2. User received e-mail with link to confirm. 3. User clicks link and is registered. 4. Registration info stored in cookie on user's browser. 5. Login automatic if cookie found.
Registration details would include Real Name, Forum Handle, E-mail Address, Country, Password, Reminder Phrase.
Comments?

Perhaps store some user preferences as well: "preferred toolset", "email notification" to default those selections in the post dialog.
