From my old thread...

Andrewds1021 said that "Unfortunately, vandalism is a larger issue than some users think. The reason is that admins are usually good at catching it. If you really disagree with their choice to disallow anonymous editing, that is a discussion you need to have with the local wiki admins. No one here can do anything about it. Personally, I prefer a registered account because it helps build credibility and my IP isn't sitting out in the open (even though it still isn't secured). While it is true that not all anonymous users are trolls/vandals, it is also true that most trolls/vandals are anonymous users. The reason is that by remaining anonymous, they can attempt to avoid bans by changing their IP. With a registered account, this doesn't work. The account is blocked regardless of the IP."
