I have to say I don't really understand why the thread has a title closed.

I tried to write about it previously: IP address provides accurate address information about the poster (unless you are coming here through a proxy, VPN etc). I would imagine vast majority of people don't want that.

All that is needed for registration is an email address (that can be opened quite easily, specially for wiki) and no other info whatsoever. Even if wiki gets hacked - somebody will obtain a temp address. A lot better than home address when people here leave information about when they are going on holidays.

To my mind, having a fandom account has nothing to do with whether you are posting or not. I have accounts on various sites where I don't post so I can easily follow threads I like, organise the information I find interesting etc. Here, my wall here contains info I find useful and I can follow any thread I find interesting.

Intention of my post is not to push anybody to register, only to inform about the risks of not being registered and posting.
