I submit to directories requiring registrations. Directory submission is not about submitting to directories where submission is easy to do. I agree with folks that they will collect e-mail address and spam. They can do that even without requiring you to register, can't they?

I think it's a justified attempt to keep spammers and auto-submitters away and I don't care whether the directory has registration or not. I submit to them irrespective of this requirement.

I just keep away myself from registering for just only a text link ... not worth it!

Same!! i also don't like those kind of directories, but as a normal every submit just like to get link in easy way normally for directories owner its just to get traffic lose.

But if you like to build a quality directory this will help you to prevent spam...

I'm not sure either way about this one. I mean, they require your email address anyway, don't they?

Surely it makes no difference?

I will not register to submit to a directory, however should a highly desirable Directory have this Turnstile, I might (just might) make an exception.
