I think we should keep it a public and anonymous site. Due to legal ramifications I would defiantly restrict my opinions and thoughts if my identification was traceable. The media frensy will pass.

If we want to do something about the media digging for info to manipulate maybe we should consider a "terms of agreement" for publishing info off the site. For instance any info, opinions, comments, ect.. published from this site must accompany some sort of "ridiculous, uncompliable" discloser statement. Anyone else think a terms of agreement for having access to this forum would be a good idea?

In addition, this site helps not only us established pilots but those that are future pilots and I think restricting access would cause more harm than good.
