There are a variety of reasons folks log of and sign out. This shouldn't even be a discussion. As far as the generic feel of the forum when one is not logged in, I personally think it's a mistake as well. While security is a priority, this just seems to make the "Best Place to Talk about O Gauge Trains" less welcoming. While this seems a Crowdstack decision I hope that they will see it paints us less as a community and more of a faceless collection of "icons" and "community members" rather than the greatest place of O Gauge discussion there is when looking from an unregistered viewpoint.
I hope the folks at OGR are looking to reverse this change.
But ironically, some of the people complaining about the change have no Avatar anyways so only their Username is affected.
