Why can't I comment on other blogs?

  • Unknown's avatar

    When I try too, I am told that I don’t own that name

    Chznone at wordpress dot com……

    Is this not me???? Can someone please help me ???

    Any answer at all…I’ve posted this question several times…with no responses..

    If I can’t find answers in the Forums, where do I go ????

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    I do not own that identity is what it says …..

    trying to comment on blogspot, I should add

    Seriously, can anyone even read this ??????

  • Unknown's avatar

    Yes, we can read this.

    Have you done a search for “Comment on blogspot?” Because if you do, you’ll find this USUALLY fails and you have to do something else, like comment using Name/URL.

    Also, stop reposting the question. Not only will it get you marked as a spammer, but it’s really annoying, especially when some of your posts are just CAN ANYONE READ THIS. Yes, next question?

    Only 1 post was “Can anyone read this ?”

    Sorry to annoy you , just ignore my questions like EVERY OTHER person has ….

    then you won’t be annoyed

    Thank you for answering my question….

    Hi raincoaster or anyone else who’s helping on the forums:

    I have a problem similar to chzone. If I try to comment on someone else’s wordpress blog, I am told:

    “You are being asked to login because [email address] is used by an account you are not logged into now.”

    What I’m understanding is that if I have a wordpress blog, I need to log into that to post a comment on someone else’s blog? Is that true?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Yes, it is. They did that to cut down on the number of people impersonating WP.com bloggers. So if your email that you’re using to comment is connected with a WP.com account, you need to log into the account in order to comment as that user.

    Ah. Thanks, Raincoaster.
