Morning

just a thought - the 1st item Re bans on commenting on polls is a little misleading for what has actually been banned is annonymous posting or commenting - people can still comment etc but have to use names etc.

Morning

just a thought - the first itme is a little misleading in that what is being planned isnt a ban on commenting on blogs, but a ban on doing so annonymously - which is a slightly different thing.

cheers
