Commenting  allows you to reply to, discuss or critique articles on the site.

It’s dead easy.

• 1. Register.
• 2. Log in.
• 3. Go to the article.
• 4. Scroll to the bottom of the page.
• 5. Type (or paste in) your comment. Note: The comment will be attributed to the public name outlined in your profile so there is no need to sign off the way you might in an email.
• 6. Hit the “Post comment” button.

The first time you comment there will be a delay as one of the ASC website administrators check you and your comment over to make sure you are a member and you’re playing well with others. After that we’ll trust you to comment well and comment often.

While we aim to have as few rules as possible please remember the following simple guidelines for polite, public, online discourse:

• Never say anything that you would not say to a person’s face in a public venue.
• Be prepared to stand by what you’ve said. This is the internet and what you say could well be somewhere on the public record for the rest of recorded history.
• Play the ball, not the man (or woman). For those of you not strong on sporting metaphors, this means address your comments to the question at hand and do not engage in personal attacks.

Anything we consider objectionable or actionable will be rejected or removed.
