Digger: Please, Please, No Registration

re: “News Conversation: Blog Rules, Registration” thread from 3:35 p.m. Tuesday

I know that many of us HBO regulars felt neglected until DFO went to blogging full time. A blog is a beast that needs to be fed and cared for regularly, much like a pet. Perhaps you should limit staff run blogs to those staff members that can take care of them and, if need be, provide a comment filter on those blogs that don’t have the loving attention that DFO provides to this forum. But please don’t limit our forum here by requiring registration. I don’t think it will hamper the discourse here as I’m sure many of us would register as long as real names didn’t have to be used. The bigger issue seems to be always having to register or login to do anything on the net anymore. That is the bigger issue for me - big brother looking over my shoulder. More here.
