Adding value trough your contribution

Blogging is an act of sharing and so it is often also the act of building with LEGO, for many FOLs out there.
Commenting into a blog, should be also seen as an act of sharing towards the remaining readers. Hence a positive contribution attitude it is the best way in order to add value for everyone.

TBs receives many comments with links to private held businesses, adding no value, which are always reviewed, rejected or removed and marked as spam.
Occasionally we have also been victims of trolling [1, 2] at certain posts, specially from those who chose to hide behind anonymity. This is of course, an unacceptable behavior!

In order to address and prevent situations like this and after some reflexion, the policy for commenting into this blog is changed with immediate effect.
From now on, Anonymous comments are not allowed anymore and readers must use their Google account or an OpenID authentication [3, 4, 5] as supported by Blogger, to comment into this blog.

Hope this measure will help us to improve the quality and added value from everyone's participation, to everyone else.
On the other end we also hope it does not discourage others to participate with the quality they have used us. Let's see how it works.


Best regards!
