"Logging In" to Add Comments
"Why do I have to login to add a comment?"
When you finish your comment and click "Post Comment…", a pop up window appears asking you to login in one of two ways:
- By typing your name and email address in the default field (video). Or
- By logging in to one of the social account icons listed (video).
Neither method actually logs you in to this website. What they do is:
- Verify that you're a human and not a spambot.
- Allow you to meet the Comment Policy requirements of adding your name and email address to each comment.
- Add a cookie to your browser so you won't have to 'login' again the next time you comment.
If you're still having problems posting a comment after watching the videos below, please ensure your browser and its settings are supported by this website.
