Ali: indeed. It is easy to see the effects of non required registration! I always want to write a review or post a comment (to blip videos for example) but what typically discourages me is the login requirement. I don’t mind leaving my name and contact details I just don’t want to have to login to provide a review or feedback. This is a good move. More work for you but a good thing nonetheless.

Hi Ali,
Interesting trend, by opening about the review process without people signing in, do you now have moderators ?

Yeah, we now moderate all reviews.
Taking away log-ins has the disadvantage of a) yeah, requiring moderation, but also b) we can’t link reviews together, by author

also we get way more spam now, of course.
