After being approached by a few readers, we have decided to lift the requirement to become a registered user on the SWLing Post in order to post comments. Now you can post comments without the added hassle. If you’re interested, the reason we implemented this requirement in the early days of the blog had to do with the enormous amount of SPAM comments we received daily–literally 40+ per day! It was simply taking too much time to filter and SPAM plug-ins were (at that time) not up to the task.
So, feel free to comment! We’d love to hear from you.
Thanks, Rick. I certainly hope the spambots stay away, too. They’re a little like the Borg…they adapt and resistance is futile!
Good luck with the opened comment system. Hope the spambots stay away!!
