Flowerman,
Only members and registered users have userids and passwords, and a password is what keeps others from making moves in a game someone else is playing and what keeps your opponent from accidentally moving your pieces when it is your turn. Also, having a userid makes it easier to keep track of what games you are playing on Game Courier, because it allows you to view a listing of them all on the Logs page. Using userids also keeps email addresses out of the logs, which helps keep them away from spammers.
