You Need A Google Account To Leave Comments

Hello Blog Fam,
Considering recent comments on WC, some of us have sent me mails suggesting that we put some restrictions in place so that those who need advice will not shy away because of the horrible comments they might get from some unknown people hiding behind their screens.

I agree with them and think that will bring our love and oneness back to this family. Blog settings changed this morning, to leave a comment, you
need a Google Account, so that Google at least knows who is saying what.  Creating a Google account is easy and free. For posts about creating a Google account. I will leave three links below. Click on any of these links to be taken to where you can create your own Google account. It will help you in so many ways, not just for blog comments. A Google account has so many other uses.

  1. Hello Aunty Eya,
    Please I beg you on behalf of good anonymous readers who may not want to be known for some reasons. This decision is rather too quick. Think about the good anonymous comments you have on the blog and don't let a few disgruntled elements make you take rash desicions.

    For our sakes, pls can you rather moderate comments and DELETE those that do not add any value to this great and enriching blog. Please moderate comments for now and let's see how that goes before you think of the next step. Take time to reflect before doing this pls.

  4. Me I comment on this blog giving examples of in-laws,friends,neighbors,co-workers etc. There is no way I'm opening a google account Eya,biko! Before I throw myself out of my husband's house!
    Pls reconsider moderation of comments Eya.

  5. Madam Eya, restricting comments to google account will be your downfall. You won't be getting more than 10 comments again per post. And so your blog will be stagnant. No proffessional blogger ever will go thru this route.
    You really beliv ppl hav time to go open an acct 1st before commenting here bcos of wat?
    Eya don't use your hand spoil ur own blog cos some ppl are hiding sending u emails.
    You musnt listen to them.
    All you have to do is moderate comments and delete d ones you don't approve of. Skikena. Eya be strong mama.

  6. People who post stories under anonymous won't be able to give instant response to questions ppl pose at them and still remain anonymous, just my observation!

  7. I think the best way to go is that you moderate comments. Someone like me,I can't put my face or name out because of d nature of my job. Stop posting comments that are offensive. Its not everybody commenting without a google I D that says silly things.

    Just my opinion. You've got d final say. 🙂

  8. I am in support of it. For those afraid of employers, use a nickname or something after all, my real name is not Ahdaisy Jayde. You dnt have to put your real picture, I only used mine cos of Google plus.

    Moreover, if you are afraid of your employer seeing your comments, then it means your comments are bad. Don't post comments that you are ashamed of. Simple. Cos it only means you are a 2-faced hypocrite.

  9. Please can you re-consider. Like Maria pointed out, there are still good and rational anonymous comments. Let not the minority few pull us down.Thanks Aunty Eya

  14. There is a lot of drama in this blog, today comment regulations, tomorrow some thing else. Aunty Eya, you must learn from other bloggers by trying to overlook somethings. I hv seen Linda Ikeji posting hurtful comments about her cos it comes with d territory and makes her popular. People will always talk…

  16. Aunty Eya! I think moderation would be better with that you choose what to approve. Pls reconsider because of some of us. Thanks

  17. Lol @ throw yourself out of your husband's house.

    I am not insupport of google account thing. Not everyone is comfortable with coming out open on the Internet. I'd have used a name instead, but my phone does not allow me type in the name field, dunno why.

  18. Aunty Eya please I'm in support of moderating comments. Most of The comments under anonymous have become really vicious and mean. I know there are loads of good peeps who comment under anonymous,but what about the ones who use the anonymous option to derail a post? To insult others? To be condescending with comments?

    Please let everyone have a handle. I have a google account,and I opened it because there were loads of lovely blogs that I couldn't comment without a handle. I wanted to comment,ask questions,but I couldn't. I eventually opened one.

    Pls good anonys make una no vex. But if this whole thing is not contained,people who don't like insult will soon stop commenting. And of course yall will say ignore,but what about those who are sensitive? Who just want to be able to speak freely without the fear of being insulted?

    Ahdaisy is an example. That babe is strong mehn. Even tho sometimes I don't agree with stuff she says,or sometimes how she even says them, but I go ahead,say my piece,and leave. But the way and manner she's being insulted is something else. Same goes for the way aunty eya is attacked. This blog didn't start like this please.

    We can all disagree and still be civil and mature about it. Most of the spiteful comments come from anonymous ppl. Pls let everyone have a handle. Thanks.
    No vex for my long epistle o.

  19. Dis ia bullshit eya,haba! The drama on this your blog lately is grating my nerves. If u knew u couldn't handle d odds that come with blogging why did u start it in d first place? When u were busy advertising ur blog on Linda Ikeji didn't u see d kind of comments ppl drop there? Ur drama is just smth else. U must really be thinking from ur ass to think that ppl will start opening google account because of dis ur blog. Everything won't be sweet or d way u want it. U can't get everyone to be all nice even wen they don't want to just because they want u to approve a comment. The blog used to be like a family but u also have to understand that when a family is getting bigger,it comes with a lot of changes which u must embrace. People must not lick your ass always just because ur d blog owner and they want to be nice even when they think otherwise. Allow ppl to express their views. As much as we have adults here,we also have people from different backgrounds. U have to strike a balance and allow ppl to be heard. So long as no one is victimising anyone based on sexuality,religion,sex etc I don't think there is need for all diz google acct stuff. U and I know u want traffic to ur blog and trust me,dis ur style will chase every1 away and dis blog will be as boring as watching washed clothes dry. Goodluck with ur overall decisions.

  20. Aunty Eya, u may mean well but honestly i dnt think thats a good idea. Where wud d fun of d blog lie, if there are no catfights n all? I just think u shud reconsider ds decision, n instead moderate comments. Thanks

  21. True talk, Aunty Eya, who told u in life u wud only hear what you want! Even moderation to me doesn't make sense! Wait until, ur blog becomes stagnant then u would for those troublesome anonymouses! This is like a family, and not evry1 would think alike or say useful things @ all times! If u need advice, the poster should know how to filter comments and take the useful ones! Me,I love this blog cos of the ease of replies and comments #think twice ooh# u can't be doing u want peace at all times, there wil always be troublesome people! Do u stop working cos ur workmates trouble u, No! U jus learn to be strong arnd them.

  22. Hi Eya, I still think commenting with a google account will not stop this. For the reason you are trying to restrict comment, some dedperate people who are out to cause trouble on this blog, they can creat fake email accounts and use it to creat a google plus account. Moderating comment is still the best way out and do no let evil triumph over good. Why are you letting these people have control over you. You and I know you need viewership on your blog for several reasons. I just think u should reconsider this action of yours

  23. Ahdaisy is always victimized sexually, "maritally", religiously etc. What do you suggest in that kind of situation. I support the moves. Believe in who you are and what you write and you won't be scared of revealing your ID. Chuks Stanley.

  24. As for me, I don't support dropping comment using a Google account. That's just so unnecessary.

    The best you can do Aunty Eya is to delete caustic comments.

    I love this blog because of the quick posting of comments and prompt replies. So moderating and mandating readers to comment via Google account is just unnecessary.

  27. This is an upcoming blog that can't even boost of a 100 comment on a single post and all this shakara! I hv never seen anything like this from other bloggers. A lot of rules as if our lives depends on it. Thank God men are not God.

    Know that posting with whatever you choose is a choice and people can't be forced to do what u want becos you own the blog while there are better options.

  28. Prince charming in Linda's blog for a period was under attack, I mean terrible things were said but it came and past and the guys is a stronger man not minding them. As a blogger, you do your part and let your followers do theirs. And not all this rules and regulations.

  29. The anonymous you have in all blogs are much more than people using fake names. Let her try the google account thing and see her blog go down the drain.
