Our local online newspaper just added a comments feature. Great move. They are accepting anonymous comments and have a "lite" gate keeping function. Smart.
Here's a typical reaction:
"This is great feature.  I’ve seen websites with name (or at least a pen  name) required and others that are 100% anonymous.  I find that over  time, the quality of submissions are very similar, but the latter type  of websites seems to get a greater volume of quality submissions.  So, I  would go with the latter.  A gatekeeper is definitely necessary at  least in the short term just to make sure a good thing does not turn  into a bad thing."
Exactly right!
