Why you should register

From TapeWiki

You will not be able to edit/create a page until you've registered an account. This was done for obvious reasons. I know some people really have a thing about wikis being editable by anyone at anytime, but frankly I don't follow this philosophy. My time is limited and I don't have a staff to monitor and clean up this thing if something bad happens.

I know that it sucks that you need a separate account for the wiki and the forums, but that's because we're dealing with two very different pieces of software. I don't have the time (or the knowledge) to integrate their security with a unified account system. So until someone offers up a solution to this problem, I'm afraid we'll all need separate accounts for the time being.
