Hello BayCHI community, I'm wondering what the community thinks about the request to confirm your email address and your password on registration forms. I can see pros and cons for both sides of the argument. The main benefit that I see for requiring a confirmation field would be to ensure that the information has been entered correctly. In some registration forms this probably has greater necessity. While the con would be complicating and extending a task that people generally dislike and wish to finish as quickly as possible. As well, unless copy and paste has been disabled, many people copy the first entry and paste it in the confirmation field. Thank you for your thoughts, Ryan -- CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION: This e-mail transmission and any attachments contain confidential information.
