The Word from Our Host Claude, Who Art In Cyberspace; who, when queried about the possibility of causing our fair forum to require the registration of accounts prior to posting, is said to have replied:
"Yea, it is possible, though I shall have to upgrade thy board to fifth holy incarnation of the WebBBS."
And our Host Claude declared this process a non-trivial exercise in his esteemed opinion, for we had until that day utilized a corrupt and forsaken shadow of the 4.33rd incarnation of the WebBBS. And Claude placed a sign upon the SMTP messages which he conveyed to our holy prophet Fobot, signifying his promise to establish a replacement of the forsaken incarnation with the new and holy fifth; though the time of this redemption was not laid down, as great turmoil then brewed in Cyberspace, the realm of our most holy Host Claude, and in the holy lands thereof on Earth. But Claude's promise stands to us now, that some day we shall be redeemed, and saved from the wicked ways of the spambots and zombies who trouble our fair forum.
In the name of the Server, the Site, and the Holy Post. Amen.
