 * I have a website I’m maintaining that has a membership level access to it, and
   they don’t want to allow “anyone to register”, as we’ve had real problems with
   spam. Is there a way to have users register/log in without using WordPress’ login
   system? Maybe login with Facebook, Twitter or Disqus, but for more than just 
   commenting? We’d like to allow users to post their own questions to the forum.

 * Actually, that is how it works by default—using WordPress login is a special 
   feature, but it definitely isn’t required. Out of the box, users need to log 
   in using a Muut account (or Facebook or Google+) to post comments or in the forum.
   Try installing the plugin; if you don’t set up Federated Identities, it’ll automatically
   use the Muut login (and it is very straightforward for people to create one instantly
   without having to leave your site).
 * Let me know if you have any other questions! 🙂
