Do not allow accounts without (non-spam) e-mail activity to post comments
Trolls are killing the comment sections using multiple accounts by posting as many users to overwhelm others, to harass individual commenters, and to intimidate. (Trolls drive away genuine users, and lower average user quality, which in the end damages your ad revenues because of low viewer quality.) 1) Limit total Yahoo accounts to 2 for free/nonpaid Yahoo users. 2) Do not allow accounts with no (or little) genuine e-mail activity (not spam) to post comments. 3) To end bullying, allow original posters to delete sub-comments under their ow posts (self-moderation).

My avatar is being blocked by one administrator. When I clicked on the avatar to check how many postings I did. Can only find 2 appearing in the page even though I have posted about 5 postings. This is a serious matter and trust Yahoo News Singapore can checked who is the culprit?
Would appreciate your help in expediting this. Thank You.
