After much hard work on the part of online editor Junfu Han and Detroit Softworks, the Daily Lobo has revised its online comment system to require a valid e-mail account before a comment is published on our website. I wanted to take the opportunity to let our readers know what this means for the Daily Lobo’s online forum.
In the past, readers could simply enter a word, the “at” symbol, another word and “dot com” in order to post a comment. Now, commenters must verify their posts through a valid e-mail account before they appear on the website.
Like before, your e-mail address will not be posted alongside your comment on our website, but it will allow us to get in touch with you about a comment. It also reduces the proliferation of anonymous, and often hateful, comments. This will promote healthy discussion in a University setting, and we encourage our readers to visit DailyLobo.com and join the discussion.
