It’s really annoying if you must register and login to just post a comment. And then these unreadable capsha and email confirmation which quite often doesn’t arrive at all. After all this hassle you have no mood to post anything.

I think anyone should leave a comment and leave it up to the site owner to moderate.

I can’t stand sites that force you to login before commenting. If I see that, I’m out of there. I’m surprised that people do would think that’s a good idea. Seems silly to me.

Your site if proof that if you make it easy, everyone will want to contribute. This comment is number 69 and that is because it is easy to post. I doubt you get this level of participation if you required everyone to log in.

“How many times have your read a great blog post and have wanted to add a comment, only to get to the bottom of the page and find that you have to login?”

Many times I have posted comments (no spams or rude ones) on blogs to find out that they are never posted.

I agree. I hate it when I want to say something interesting and productive, but apparently, I’m NOT special enough to do it without a complicated login process first. Gah!!! Of course, it may increase the risk of spammers, but I’ve rarely seen these, and they can be edited out. You can also stop machines from entering in the comments by making people type in the number/letters in an image. The person above mentioned MuggleNet (a Harry Potter fansite). They do always get heaps of comments, but I think they would get even more if they stopped the login thing, because it’s not ideal for spammers anyway: you can’t give a website address and no_follow is automatically attached anyway.

A comment is worth if the user really put some facts and deep thoughts, therefore the user (IMHO) won’t be bothered to register (that will usuallyn only take 1 to 2 minutes) because they would like to post a good comment

I think people should turn on their register filter (User have to be registered to comment) if their blog have met a great deal of spam.

Those registering thinggy could decrease a great deal of spams

If i see a login page at comments section, i will close the site.I even don’t read forums which requires registration.Fill the form,open new tab,go to your mail box (or running your mail software,doesn’t matter),get the activation link or the code etc.Waste of time

I also really hate registering to leave comments. I am a software developer and interested in finding a solution to this problem through software.

For example, something like: A firefox plugin that provides a “register” button for online registration forms. The software would fill in the form with all your details, submit it and then read your email account, click the “confirm” link, and then log you in and take you to the post-a-comment page — All just by clicking once.

There are ways to get around the captchas. One guy cracks captchas and publishes the results on his blog: http://www.apathysketchpad.com.....-captchas/

If the captcha cannot be cracked, then one click, and filling in a captcha is still much easier than doing the whole checking-your-email thing manually.

Does anyone have any ideas how we can go about building this program?

I’m with you, Dawud. If I have to login I just leave the site without commenting. I want it to be easy and inviting to comment, not s series of hoops.

DB,
I think it really depends on your focus. Performancing, for instance, has a purpose to their login. But many smaller bloggers don’t – they just require login anyhow.

usa,
I say keep it all open…until your business can afford to keep it private.

We should give more freedom to the visitors and help them say their words unless they hurt other people.

I have 2 sites that allow people to post their services, and since I require no login, I get a lot more listings and action than had I forced a login – thus making a lot more user-generated content, which in turn helps my site stay fresh. I think logins can be very useful for many things (on blogs and other posting pages), but they do cut down on the level of participation.

Babe,
One reason I love when site’s publish policies is it gives me the chance to decide whether I agree enough to live by them. If not, I just don’t participate.

Clement,
It would be nice. I certainly understand Performancing’s perspective. They get tons of traffic and I’m sure as much spam. Yet I see a lot of less successful sites doing this and I think it hurts their growth.
