A Temporary Solution For Commenter Log-Ins?

You guys, I know that the commenter log-in system is a mess. Sorry. We are working on it. Until then, commenter Becca seems to have discovered a temporary solution:

try this. sign out. then sign in - NOT AT THE TOP - but at the bottom where you leave a comment. and then when you comment, put in your name and email, even though you're signed in. IT WORKS!

Hopefully that should work for now, and hopefully everything will be back to normal soon. Fingers crozzed. Thanks, Becca.

(UPDATE: Maybe not so much.)

You do all realize that this commenter log-in problem coincides with the departure of Lindsay. Just saying.

Uh, whoops. I'd tell everyone my secret if I knew what the crap it was. I think it's karma coming back to me for refusing to vote down anyone's comments.

Will this solve my (unreported) issue of always having to log in when I comment? I click the 'remember me' box over and over, but every time I get on Videogum I've been logged out again.

As frustrating as this is getting, I do like the excitement (and subsequent disappointment) that comes with leaving a comment these days.

Don't worry guys, I'll just complete the final stage of my evolution by projecting myself into the mainframe computer and becoming pure energy. Once I've entered in the neural net, my birth cry will be the sound of every phone on the planet ringing in unison, and then I'll fix the commenter log-ins.
