You want to build a community but don't want to know who that community is or how to get in touch with them?

lobo, in all sincerity, the last thing I want to do is build up a "community." My forum, and I don't even call it that, is simply a vehicle for repsonding to email inquiries so others than only the original inquirer can benefit from repies.

I think a compelling reason to require registration may be that potential advertisers want to know how may people visit a site/forum. Right now, the numbers who participate in my Q&A Board are about four times the numbers represented by the current stats the forum software generates.

I could care less, but I'm not sure what an advertiser would expect.
