Thanks for the input, especially the part about the younger members. The problem, as I see it, is that there is no anonymity on the Facebook platform. You are posting under your real name, and that is a big deterrent to a lot of people. The ability for complete anonymity was an important component in choosing the forum software. To my knowledge, our forum has suffered no direct hacks. There was a wide-spread general hack of hundreds of thousands of websites by some notorious hackers a number of years ago, but no information was mined on our site.

Security concerns is the main reason that I had to turn off the auto registration feature. Too many spammers and pornographers are out there trying to infiltrate public forums. Over the years I've learned how to spot them before they can do any damage.
