   Depends on what type of comments you want.

      Like Tag Team, Mac is back again...

   Yes, definitely.
8. Royko January 25, 2021 – 7:09 am at

   Yes. I don't think you can keep out bots and spammers without it.
9. Mark January 25, 2021 – 7:14 am at

   I hate it but yes.

    How about just no comments at all?

    Comments are just a gateway drug to Twitter.
    1. MontyTheClipArtMongoose January 25, 2021 – 10:00 am at

       Don't I know it!
11. Connor J Flynn January 25, 2021 – 7:15 am at

    Yeah. Gotta make it somewhat not resistant. Right?
12. Douglas Cole January 25, 2021 – 7:16 am at

    It appears that the early adopters say yes.
13. Roger January 25, 2021 – 7:20 am at

    yep
14. Kathleen Ann Larkin January 25, 2021 – 7:22 am at

    I have read you every day for I think 18 years.
15. Geordie January 25, 2021 – 7:24 am at

    Yep.

    I vote for registration, to control the trolling riff-raff, but also to expedite entering comments so I don't have to log in, sort of, each time I want to throw my 1.5 cents in.
17. bbleh January 25, 2021 – 7:30 am at

    Yes, spam control
18. marc sobel January 25, 2021 – 7:32 am at

    Good god, yes.
20. Snarki, child of Loki January 25, 2021 – 7:46 am at

    Okay, but require that commenters use their "real names".
    Like I always do.
    1. Thor January 25, 2021 – 7:49 am at

       I call BS. Your real name is Snarki, bastard child of Loki.
21. joel January 25, 2021 – 8:03 am at

    1. Shari January 25, 2021 – 8:13 am at

22. Jimbo January 25, 2021 – 8:13 am at

    Mmm...yeah.
23. Larry Sanderson January 25, 2021 – 8:14 am at

    Yes! Spam is constant.
24. Barbara Collier January 25, 2021 – 8:17 am at

    yes
25. randal m sexton January 25, 2021 – 8:19 am at

    Yes, as long as they don't get taken over by lunatic squabbling.
26. ProgressOne January 25, 2021 – 8:27 am at

    My Votes:

    - When people sign up they must provide a working email address, though other users won't see this.
    - People can pick their handle names.
    - Include ability for users to block other users like Disqus and Coral can do. Without this, on any blog whether on the left or right there are always people who feel they must attack and try to drive out people making comments from the other side. To me, the ability of a user to block another user is an essential feature of a modern commenting system.
    - Perhaps just use Disqus. It always seemed fine to me. Coral seems inferior.
27. Reaniel January 25, 2021 – 8:28 am at

    Nay +1
28. scott January 25, 2021 – 8:30 am at

29. Loxley January 25, 2021 – 8:32 am at

    Seems prudent to require some form of registration....
30. Paula Sorensen January 25, 2021 – 8:32 am at

    Yup. Along the lines of PDBach and ProgresOne
