First. I am agnostic on the issue.

Second. I set up the vote as it was one of the suggestions that RR3 Michael P in another post and it hadn't been acted on after about 12 hours.

Third. I registered when I started. It also remembers the login after you have logged in once from a browser (I guess cookies) so it is easy to stay logged in after that first time.

Fourth. We are trained to remember names and images over spans of numbers. That is why we have DNS. That is why I have a heck of a time when someone other than Toby is using the Smiley Star Cookie for their Avatar. If you want this to be a community, then you need to be able to develop the idea of a person from the body of their comments. You can start to build the framework of that person, at least the RR3 Wiki version of that person, if they have a user name. If they are simply an IP Address, there is no way to build that framework. With user names you know that QuickNick is the go to person for coding questions, and Tommy299 is a master at vinyl design, ME7 is the Jump Boss, Real Racing 3 Speed Junkie is the best driver that is a regular contributor, and Toby6321 is going to have a difficult time passing the Tilt B no assists challenge in latest Special Event, so maybe you post a heads up message on his wall to let them know it is comming. Do you think I would have the framework I just put forward if all these contributors ever had was VVV.VV.VVV.VVV, WWW.WW.WWW.WWW, XXX.XX.XXX.XXX, YYY.YY.YYY.YYY. or ZZZ.ZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ? Actualy, just replacing the numbers of the IP address with those variables is a good example, because, you would get to recognize that to a user. We are bad with remembering Number Spans, with the exception of some people with special gifts. Even back in the old days when we had to remember phone numbers, it was always the name that we associated with. It was never, hmm 555-555-1212 now who is that again; it was what was Tim's number again? Oh, yeah, 555-555-1212.
