Anonymous Commenting Disabled
dz Sun, 01/21/2007 - 7:47pm
I've been fighting against doing this for a number of months, but we have had to disable anonymous commenting due to recent attacks on the site - specifically in the form of flooding out comments with attack pieces including posting photos of bowls of human feces (left up only as an example for why anonymous commenting had to be removed).
In any event, anonymous users must register to post comments, all it takes is an email address. On a side note, the poll which was run last month ended up with 5x more users wanting to remove anonymous commenting than continue to allow them.
Making this change is not something I wanted to do, but unfortunately there are those whose focus is on anything but being constructive.
Thank you dz...
I think it is the right thing to do.

Farewell all you Anony's
...we barely knew ye!
ditto .... Thank you dz
I had been hoping you would get to it.
"There are none so hoplessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free" (Goethe)..... a paraphrase from V: Cast aside the illusions. Only when you are finally hopeless can you truly be free.
Thank you, DZ...
Definitely a step in the right direction. I'd like to see us all have to post our real names, but I'm probably in a minority there....
I wouldn't have a problem with that
except that I'm really attached to my alias.
I am also quite attached to my alias
For the record, my name is John Wright.
I would list my hometown but there is another John Wright in my town and I don't want him to get any more harassment than he already does. I'll have to see if he knows the truth about 9/11, LOL.
Happy now, Mr. Kornkven?
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.
Be well.
Yes, you are in a minority.
Yes, you are in a minority. There are too many sites. corporations, marketing gits and what not who don't understand unless it's a matter of public safety, they really DON"T need to know everything the state does to read their bleeding newpaper on-line.
I used to not have an opinion until the same MSM whinning about not having enough circulation, started to ask for encyplopediac info just to read their papers on the internet, the same paper you can read for free--at the library or coffee shop.
Between that and telemarketers, I've gotten very tetchy about privacy where these corporate gits have influence. Records of emails, and tracking IP's should more than sufficently address any security issues.
Oh, and I'm not really attached to my alias...honest...you believe me, right?
Impeachment. Accountability. A better world.
Thank you.
I know this is a policy you had legitimate and honorable objections to, but thank God you overcame them.
I'm pretty hard to faze, but I must say running across the photo to which you refer left me aghast. Just like... jesus christ, i don't need that kind of visual input...
Pictures of Nico...
Have that effect on people.

Appropriate?

Fine by me
If somebody wanted to post using an alias, but didn't mind his/her real name being known, then it could just be on his/her profile and people could find it by clicking the link.
On edit: I checked out the comment you linked to. It was completely shocking.
Long Overdue
I very rarely EVER see an online forum such as this that allows for anonymous posts. 99% of them usually require registering. This is the right choice and will go a long way towards cutting down on the disinfo crap.
I registered before this
There's some nice added functionality.
I still think allowing anonymous posting is better, at least in an ideal world where people don't post insults.
THANK YOU, dz!!!!!!
A little late for my Christmas prezzie, though!
I was going to write a poem to commemorate this glorious occasion--but I'm on my housemate's computer and I dont' have time. That's probably for the best.
CHEERS AGAIN--look, there's people dancing in the street!
