  Is there a way to make it so readers can avoid getting an account with wordpress in order to make a comment? I’ve commented on wordpress blogs before and I just had to put my name and email?

  [edit: I don’t know how this could happen unless you have it set to private. Check your settings under options > discussion.]

  Check under Dashboard->Options->General for this checkbox:
  “Membership: Users must be registered and logged in to comment”

  Just another idea : do you allow your browser to save cookies ?

  dashboard -> options -> discussion

  Before a comment appears:

  * An administrator must always approve the comment
  * Comment author must fill out name and e-mail
  * Comment author must have a previously approved comment

  leave all 3 options above unchecked.
