To Anonymous Commenters
This month, I made this blog available to all commenters, because of the A to Z Challenge. The options are either everybody, including anonymous commenters, or Google accounts only. Not everyone has a Google account and I wanted to encourage people who might like to comment, but were not on Google. And Google does keep scrapping its programs, such as Google Plus and OpenID, which allowed anyone to comment using their ID.
And I have had some lovely comments from new online friends who are on Wordpress but don’t have Google accounts.
The trouble is, I’ve also had anonymous comments that were not relevant to the posts they were on. Some were advertising, but most were from a single, very strange person who will not get a Google account or even sign their name. I published one comment and told them that would be it if they didn’t give me a name. They kept posting anonymously, and irrelevantly. I have had to delete every day - in fact, there is one which has just popped into my moderation box as I have been writing this. It has been annoying.
So... I will probably go back to Google accounts only, after the final post in A to Z. You can still follow this blog by email. It’s worth considering getting a Google account, even if you are blogging on Wordpress. It will enable you to comment on Blogger blogs, not just mine. It’s pretty safe - these days you need to give them your phone number, but that’s only to let them warn you by text if there is anything fishy going on.
Meanwhile, I want it known that I will not publish any comments without a name. Just a name will do. But without it, no publishing, sorry!
