I enjoy Gazette online articles and also, sometimes, the comments from those who subscribe. Have you considered looking at introducing a system whereby those who provide comments must have a user name? They can still in effect be anonymous (should they choose), but it would be easier to see who is responding to what.
At present, there are frequently occasions where it is unclear which ‘anonymous’ is responding or whether they are simply adding to earlier comments. I think it would make it clearer for everyone, but also give the subscribers an opportunity to spot those who perhaps have a tendency towards trolling.
