It’s been a couple of months, so I’ll make this request again:
Please select a nickname and type it in under the “nickname” box on our comments page. Going through a comments thread with “Anonymous” is tedious and confusing. I can distinctly recognize at least two regular commenters using the Anonymous tab, and it’s annoying.
It doesn’t require getting an account or anything. Just type in a name, like SLOG.
Example above, with the correct box indicated in red. For whatever reason, Blogger doesn’t allow you to turn off “anonymous” without doing the same for “Nickname”.
Thanks!
will do
OK; I get it now
Do what now?
Maybe you should put this notice on the sidebar so (hopefully) you don’t have to post about it every few months.
Incidentially, the options for commenting are now Google/Blogger, OpenID (for accounts from other similar services), Name/URL, and Anonymous. Not “Nickname”.
st guy, thank you! One fewer anonymous to contend with!
Why not just turn anonymous off? You can still pick out a just a name using the Name/URL option..
