what we had there was a failure to communicate

Butterscotch Sundae Dot Com has been having issues accepting comments lately. I’m not sure how long the problem’s been going on, but it came to my attention when National Blog Posting Month started and a couple of people said, “Hey! I can’t comment on your blog.” But then when I asked some other people to try, they could comment and it was all very confusing. Then I figured out that people on mobile devices could comment but people on computers couldn’t, and I passed that on to my security people and they said, “Huh, that’s weird. Your comment system is rooty tooty dablooty[1]I didn’t understand what they said. and they only way we can figure out how to fix it is get a different comment system.”

So I installed Disqus, and I’m currently working on importing all of my not-Disqus comments over to the Disqus system, and that’s causing me headaches, too, because my blog is 12 years old and Disqus isn’t handling all that importing very graciously. I may have to do some more laborious behind-the-screens work to get things where they need to be, so things might get weird here for a bit.

Anyway, you ought to be able to leave comments from any internet-able device now. And I hope you do.
