(SW Engineer from Disqus here) Could you elaborate on OpenID issues you are having?

OpenID is used so we don't have to create another account, with another password for some crappy message board just to leave a message for somebody." I struggled for days trying to get my openID working like it was on stackoverflow.com, and I finally gave up. The amusing thing is, I subscribed to that thread via email, and every few weeks, there would be another pissed off commenter who wondered why it wasn't working. Does your openID require setting up a local account (with username/password) still?

    If you want just to comment you don't need to create a Disqus account (this behavior was from day one). You can go to any website that has Disqus enabled and comment with just your OpenID account. However, if you want to install our widget on your own sites or become a moderator you will have to create a Disqus account. Mainly because we need to verify those accounts via email. Hope that helps.
