Announcements

First, the good news. Anonymous comments are back. Anyone may post a comment on this site.

Second, the bad news. Comments are now moderated. This means that there may be a significant time lag between when you make a comment and when it appears on the site.

We will be trying things this way for the next week or so. If it works, comments will stay this way.

And see--the time lag there wasn't so bad. During the day, when I'm near a computer, it shouldn't be too long.

Sure, Rear_Admiral,

It mostly came from my own frustration at the way the comments section of this site was devolving into a flame war, and my repeated calls for civility were apparently falling on deaf ears.

I figured that I had to try something, and this was it. This is temporary--we'll be switching back to the old format next week--but it may become permanent in the future if things don't change.

Alas, no. Another possibility is switching to a comment system like HaloScan which allows users to be banned.
