Comments moving to Disqus
NOTE: This post has been moved to the top as we work through the new Disqus comment system on The Moderate Voice. Feel free to test (within reason) and leave any questions, comments, and/or concerns.
TMV Readers,
In an effort increase the site’s overall speed and to add more commenting features, TMV’s comments will be moving to the Disqus commenting system. This will allow threaded comments, avatars, while integrating all comments into a separate forum.
Because of this move, you will have to register on the Disqus site in order to comment. You’ll be able to do this from the post by clicking the Options button. We still do not allow anonymous comments since it opens the us up to too much spam (even though Disqus will filter most of the spam).
This move is starting now so you may experience a little hiccup while we integrate the new commenting system.
UPDATE #1: So far so good. Note this system is only on posts with no comments and future posts.
UPDATE #2: We are compiling a list of HTML codes that work in this system. Furthermore, we are working on some tweaks to address the text size and style across different browsers and platforms. Thanks for your continued patience.
UPDATE #3: Looks like threaded comments will be disabled while we do some style changes to widen the comment area and to accommodate different browsers. Such is life!

That small, eh? I'll contact Disqus and see if this is an issue regarding Firefox on Macs.
OK, I'm signed in now. On to the next challenge!
Still signed in?
It timed out, but then posted- an odd posting system.
I'll get things kinks worked out soon enough.
whoever has the mac and firefox, go t your firefox perefs andmake sure fonts are set to 12 or 14 point. Also make sure your monitor/display is set to 100% or more Whatever resolution you usually use..
that's preferences for Fire Fox
<q>testing</q>
ok, back to the days before tag buttons. Let's try this: italics, bold, underline, <strike>strikeout</strike>
and back to normal text
so, no strikeout… otherwise, works fine
If you use Firefox, try the ScribeFire extension. Compose in WYSIWYG, switch to code view, copy and paste…
I'm late to the game. Problems yesterday wouldn't let me comment. trying now.
nice post, thanks for sharing
