It does help simplify the process, but the only problem I see is that I would have to create passwords for the AltLinkOwners' myself. It's not hard to do that, but I would imagine that most people would remember their own password easier than one I have assigned to them.
Uh...no you wouldn't...the users would create an account and their information would be stored in the USERS table. No need to create accounts for them.

That might not look that great though to the casual visitors that have no interest in owning links. I guess I could create two classes of users. One for visitors and the other for potential LinkOwners. But that could get confusing on my end.
Why would you have to do that? Basically, when a record is modified, if you feel that the person attempting to "own" the link is not legitimate, then you simply delete the USERID number in the AltLinkOwner field. No need to create two "classes" of users...more work than it's worth.
