Shouldn't we have a possibility to comment the blogs?

Shouldn't we have a possibility to leave comments in the blogsas everywhere? Or the danger of trolling is too big?

It's not a bad idea and for awhile last year, Admin was starting threads about some of the Blogs to encourage some interaction.Trolling was not so much the problem as failure to thrive. So they have not done it in awhile.You can always start your own thread related to a blog, of course.The best places for max exposure would be in General or maybe the OT, though you could post in the relevant Forum for the topic of the blog.

Well, some of Collector's postings invite themselves to be commented.

I suggest posting a comment in General with a topic of something like "In response to <blog title>-<blog author>" and have a link to the blog at the top of the post.
