Pursuant to the 2012 UEFL Rules Summit and UEFL Rule 8-1, website commenting will now be conducted via the Disqus commenting system. In leaving a message, you may connect with services Twitter, Facebook or Google, or you may sign up with Disqus via the "D" logo shown at the base of the commenting interface or by filling out "Name," "Email" and selecting the "Register with Disqus" checkbox. In addition to preserving your comment history and being notified of replies, Disqus also allows comment minimization and flagging (top right of any comment, "Flag as Inappropriate"), sharing, voting/reactions and a streamlined way to replay to a specific comment. Interface tabs include Discussion (in-thread commenting), Community (links to other discussions on Close Call Sports) and, if you are logged in, a Disqus profile console.
Anonymous commenting has been enabled on a trial basis.
Sweet!
ReplyDeleteThis is gonna take some getting used to...
ReplyDeleteI would rather post under my nickname. Is there anyway to do so without having to post Anon?
This was a necessary change. For every 1 good anon post, there would be three or four jackasses posting just to insult people. Hopefully this will stop some of the trolling.

ReplyDeleteIf you connect with Twitter/Facebook/Google or signup with Disqus, you'll be automatically logged in throughout the site (cookies), though I do see "Cricket" as the display name for your post.

This will take some getting used too

ReplyDeleteNow this is showing me under my email address instead of my username wwjd
ReplyDeleteI posted under "Enter a name" because it showed my full name when I logged in through Google.
ReplyDeleteI see some folks are having double posting problems.
Interesting Change, but I Iike it
ReplyDeleteA bit of a glitch trying to register with Disqus. Personally, I don't think this fixes anything -- if Anonymous posting is still allowed, how is this an improvement over the previous system?
ReplyDeleteAh. Disqus takes the display name from your Google Profile (http://profiles.google.com); Google has their own TOS for display names there.
ReplyDeleteI can better moderate the Anon posters with this system. It will allow certain persons who must post anonymously (e.g., active MiLB) to continue with valuable contributions, yet we'll also be able to more quickly and efficiently take care of problems.
ReplyDeleteDoes Close Call Sports have an app?
ReplyDeleteI said screw it and just registered an independent account with Disqus.
ReplyDeleteOh That's the wonderful news, Thanks so much now I also prefer to allow user comment through disqus , Thanks so much
ReplyDeleteI love sports and am so grateful for what I had growing up. One of my greatest possessions is a baseball bat display rack with a historic bat on it and all the great memories that come with it.
