And as I replied to Barrie, those quick registers are high up on the list of the ones female chatboxers need to be wary of. But now I've got to try and cross-reference two separate, massive memberlists, without a quick 'posting history' check to fall back on? And that's not even counting the people who might choose to use different names in the chatbox.
Let me give you an example. I have just looked at the memberlist for the chatbox. I've never heard of the first seven people on that list before today. If I'm in that chatbox and one of them starts being a bit weird with me, instead of being able to simply check them out on the forum, I have to try and see if they're even on the forum in the first place, before I can even think about looking at their history etc.
