No more email address in blog comments
From beginning of my blogging days I was always puzzled why is it necessary to leave your email address when you want to post a comment?
Do you as a blog owner ever use that email address? I can't see why would it be handy. It can even be used for wrongful purposes by people who do not care. And it sure makes writing comments a longer and more complicated procedure.
So from today on, here on this blog there are no more email address requirements. Keep your email safe where it belongs. If you wish to contact me you can always use the contact form.
If you wish to disable this feature too, it is done in Wordpress options, under Discussion section. Uncheck the option "Comment author must fill out name and e-mail". Unfortunately that means that Name will not be required too but at least everyone leaves their name by habit.
Just say no to email in comments!
