Blog commenting… which system do you prefer?

chalkboard background

Hi there! It has me wondering… if you read blogs and you think you might comment on one, which system do you prefer to use? Do any turn you off?

Below are the 3 main systems bloggers use.

I was wondering if you’d vote on the one you prefer?

Blog commenting
Which would you prefer?
 Wordpress/Blogspot standard commenting form 
 Facebook commenting box inside blog 
 Disqus 3rd party commenting system 

FORM CLOSED. ANSWERS ARE HERE.

On my blog you’ll see I have the Facebook commenting system PLUS the standard WordPress section. I’d love to see what YOU like…

Thanks! X

    Disqus requires you to sign in which is a pain at times, however the bonus is that if the blogger responds to your comment, your email will tell you of this. That's kinda nice for me! I am wanting to know/ wondering from a blogger point of view whether it is annoying, stalking like, or even awesome getting comments from the same people aaaaalll the time. Is there a responding line that you should not cross..hehe…..I love reading a few fav blogs..(including this one) and always can think of a response to your questions and to join in the conversation, and ideas etc..but often will think twice to write it in case its toooo much….Thoughts? Your house is looking great.

    My choice is definitely via the comment form and Ive even noticed especially on your blog that when I scroll down to read I kind over over look the facebook comments (apologies to those who have chosen to comment that way)…I just forget that they are comments and head straight to the comments section.

    I really like Disqus… then the Blogger/WP. Do not like the Facebook method – sometimes I share things on blogs that I wouldn’t necessarily want all my FB reading and it posts the comment on the wall!

    I don’t know why but I can no longer comment on certain blogs, the comments just disappear into cyberspace, I think it must be their blog provider is not compatible with mine or something, it is very frustrating!

    I definitely prefer the comment form. I am similar to Kylie P and scroll past the facebook comments to where the comments submitted by the form are. I have to admit I only read these comments and not the FB ones.

    A good question, Katrina. Like the others, I tend to scroll past the FB comments. I like using IntenseDebate with its Comment Luv plugin. J x
