Why do people post blank comments. I don't get it.

jeeff: 16th Apr 2005 - 14:50 GMT

they probably don't notice the input fields above and click the 'post your comment' thinking it will take them to a form where they can enter a comment.

Good point. Will have a rethink of the layout whilst implementing your other ideas :-)

you could have something like'post your comment in the box above, then and only then may you touch this button, but not before, and leave your NAME, asshole, too' something like that'd work, no?

or make the name a mandatory field? people can put anything they want in there, retaining anonymity, but if it's blank it doesn't post. or changing "post your comment" to "submit your comment" or "submit the comment above" might help, as elaine suggests.

sorry to hijack. about the photo, it boggles my mind how much rebar goes into modern structures, like bridges and things. amazing, and kind of primitive it seems sometimes.

just add some javascript that checks for the two fields having values- and if they're both blank, messagebox "yo!"..

make the name a mandatory field- yes! do not allow a comment post without name field being filled in... sorta like you cant post a blank "though" on swinney, heh.

also: i think the statement "The soul of a city isn't rooted in its steel core, but its steel core keeps a city rooted" is pretty profound. thanks for posting this!
