pgp encryption is easy enough to use, im....um....familiar with it xD
so what you could do is encrypt the article post it, then people who want to decrypt it have to pm you for your pgp public key which they can use to decrypt your encrypted articles
heres an example of an encrypted email

its a very secure method of encryption ^^
so if encryption is a road your interested in i'd recommend pgp or gpg.
but i think this post certainly reflects a valid point, as much as open exchange of information is a great thing, when others steal articles and claim credit its just becomes tiresome, rather add an extra layer of qualification than see a good poster stop posting!
alternately there could be a "sub-forum" only for those that are deemed as good posters/dedicated preppers, that isnt even viewable without proper permissions, just an idea though
there are other advantages to encryption as well, but i shant mention them, merely infer them
