Hmm... I've thought about this.... My own personal view is that each "hurdle" you make people jump for them to post, just cuts down on the number of people who will post.... And it's tough enough hoping that people will write something as it is. :)

(As much as I love to read my own delightful prose, I do occasionally tire of reading posts when I know what's already there -- coz I wrote them! I LOVE to read what other people have to say.... :)

So that's why I personally think it's worth the extra hassle.... To make it easier for others to post. Though it certainly helps to have multiple moderators to cut down on the spam etc....

Well, those are my thoughts, for whatever it's worth... :)
