Should a user need to be signed in to a registered account in order to post comments to Articles or Forums? Yes No

This is a community vote to determine whether or not a registered account should be required in order to have the ability to post comments on Article pages and in the Forums.

As this is something that the Administrators will need to act on, it should be a time-limited vote. Since they anticipate that there will be a good amount of reorganization work with the release of the 6.1 update, the vote should end before the release date.

The vote should remain open until February 11th 2018 at 1200 UTC.

At that time, the administrators will check the results and will either leave things as is, allowing anonymous posting, or implement a change in settings requiring all posters to be signed in to a registered account.
