If you don't have an account, just leave the password field blank.
: What about a sort of, um, I don't know, having messages sorta marked for moderation if lets say more than 5 different non-staff people say so, and put it in a hidden state if more than 25 people mark it for moderation? You'd have to put limits on it, maybe no more than 1 mod per day per person, and that you have to use your username and psword. Yes, it might be flawed or hard to program, but what about for Miasma 2? (sp?)
I really don't think non-staff moderation would be a good idea... I can hold staff accountable for their actions (if they abused the moderation system) by taking away their staff-status. There is no way to hold non-staff members accountable... they can always create a new account, get another ISP, go through an IP proxy to mask their IP address, and so on. And the coding would be a nightmare as well... I think I know a good way to make it work for staff, but opening it up to everyone... I can't think of an easy way.
What about Miasma 2? The Board is basically going to be a part of it... along with several other brand new features.
