I just read an interesting article discussing the increasing numbers of news agencies requiring real names or at least registration, in order to comment on their news articles online. There are pros and cons for each side of the argument, but I really liked a quote from the article from The Wall Street Journal. It explains if the site provides content that allows for discussion without the need for vulgar language, it attracts those people who are looking for that kind of content.
