For the time being, the requirement to be logged in to leave comments is off. I’ve been a little disheartened by the lack of posts, and it’s possible more would be left if registration wasn’t necessary.

You will have to enter name (or nickname) and email for each post made. However, those who are registered and logged in won’t need to do that.

Moderation is on for certain words and also excessive links (this to prevent spamming). Otherwise, posting is open. We do reserve the right to remove any post we think is inapproriate for this site.

I’ll keep this open for awhile and see how things go. If it works, the change may be permanent if no problems arise.

In Women And Gaming, we looked at the industry’s desire to interest more women in computer games. In Women And Gaming II, we saw the other side, women who work in the industry or play in competitive games. Now it’s my turn to say a few words.

Okay, it’s time for the answers. As usual, should you or any of your…ahem…as usual, I’ve replaced the random letters with dashes so the titles stand out.
