One argument...")* was created by *[Rollerskate](/forum/user/2700-rollerskate "View Rollerskate's Profile")* In a recent [ Cracked.com](http://www.cracked.com/blog/5-things-i-cant-believe-websites-are-still-doing/) article, they complained about websites forcing their visitors to register before they ordered something. I agree. It should be an option, perhaps after an order was placed. One argument might be that you don't want people entering a whole bunch of fake orders and perhaps sending into paypal or something. However, Paypal requires an account, therefor, there shouldn't be a problem with orders with fake payments. The only issue that I can see is that there may be a few fake orders...but that's easy enough to handle and clean up. So, bottom line, IS there a way to turn off the requirement to register for the site before an order?
