The registration process will make reviewers think again about what they say. They will have more sense of responsibility to their reviews, not like anonymous reviewing. Taking Powerone's example, that's about 1 vote out of 500 readers. And voting at Literotica doesn't require you to do anything else except clicking a button. So most readers don't even want to do such a simple thing to support your hard work. How sad is that!
so perhaps then anyone who wants to read the stories should be required to register as a user?

Actually..I can pretty much guess what your response would be to that suggestion..you'd lose a hell of a lot of traffic on this site if you made people register.
