make id on signup mandatory

And what type of ID would be sufficient, because as we all know there are
no counterfeit ID's out there. How do you suppose iHub would validate that ID?
Scan it in? Pfft! Credit card? Many fakes available. Driver's License? Look
on the web for a template.

There is no single piece of ID that cannot be duplicated. Even the most
secure types of secure paper (currency, passport) are counterfeited,
some even passable in person.

There is no 100% certain way to identify a unique user to a unique computer.
There are methods to remain anonymous.

Admin is pretty good at catching them when they sign up, as evidenced by those that show up on the jail board with a question mark beside the alias.

But if they sign up with a different ISP at a different location, it's going to almost impossible to detect them.

It's a little hard for them to talk to themselves from different locations though.
