The Blog team would like to offer the following advice with respect to "Comments" versus new "Postings" or "Threads" as they are called. We suggest commenting on an item when your contribution is "on topic." However, if you are introducing a different topic, then it is best to email the Blog Team at omowners@gmail.com with your post, and we will publish it as a new thread.
Another thing to consider is that new threads may have better readership than comments since they will appear prominently at the beginning of the Blog site page.
"Comments" on the other hand require several mouse clicks to access. Furthermore, the original post may, due to its age, move off the main page.
In this regard we direct your attention to a comment posted today under the "Welcome" thread by attorney, Joseph D. Garrity.

If people are forced to email the blog team to post a new comment as a thread they will lose their anonymity. Perhaps the blog team can use their editorial powers to sort and repost the comments as new threads. Any thoughts?
ReplyDeleteRespect for anonymity is a legitimate concern; the Blog Team takes your privacy very seriously. Although we would never reveal anyone's identity, for those members who are uneasy about emailing us and prefer to "comment" anonymously, please do the following: Start your comment with the words, "New Thread." Your comment will be converted to a new thread. Be sure to include a title for your post.
