One of the advantages NewsCut has had over other blogs is the quality of the comments. They add value to the dissection of news.
Of late, however, I’ve noticed a general decline in some of the value and this usually goes hand in hand with people using fake names and fake e-mail addresses.
So, it’s time to enforce an important — if often ignored — paragraph in the Terms of Use.
You may not post any messages misrepresenting yourself as someone else, or by using a false e-mail address. In MPR and APM forums and content contributions, you must post under your own username, and are responsible for all posts from your account.
When making a comment, please be sure to provide a real name and a real verifiable e-mail address.
