Heard yesterday from a truly experienced Forum Nokia person that he wanted to comment my previous blog article - but could not:

You are not allowed to proceed with this request.
The authentication code is wrong.

This was a surprise, because the problem is an old one! I asked about that already 2 months ago in Discussion Board. The given solution still works, at least for me:

1. Use Firefox (might work with Internet Explorer, too)
2. Open new Tab
3. Copy URL from old tab to new tab
4. Copy all your comment data to new tab
5. Give security code, usually SAME as the failed one
6. It works !!!

If this doesn't work for you, then I propose that all FN Blog authors create a thread at Discussion Board for commenting. Mine would be this, naturally.

...have to admit I was wondering a bit about this. There was especially Mark Wilcox's article "The Future Symbian UI - the most important thing not discussed in Monaco", which should have gathered dozens of comments - but didn't get a single one! Not a one, shame on us! Btw I didn't comment, because I noticed that news already during NDS. Was waiting to see what others would think about it. Really major news.

I was also wondering what is the purpose of FN blogging, if this kind of known defect is left open. Blogs are important part of creating a community. If commeting is disabled, or made very hard, that might be seen as a signal to discourage blogging. I would definitely think very hard before next article, if I wasn't used to such. My personal blog elsewhere has comments disabled on purpose, so writing without feedback is ok.

Cheers,
