Passwords not required for Chat?

I went to chat tonight and noticed that for the first time all I needed was my "nickname" to get in.

No password required.

IMHO this could be a dangerous thing:

*People can log in under ANY FLYERTALK IDENTITY Then under that name could do whatever... perhaps harm? LIke someone can go on as me and start attacking other people.

*People could log in with ANY NICKNAME even if you are not registered at Flyertalk. I was able to log in with the cats names, even as Santa Claus.

HOw do you all feel about this?

Personally, please Bring back the Password requirement

THank you.
