Other comment settings
_Comment author must fill out name and e-mail
_Users must be registered and logged in to comment

Note that the prompt will still appear but providing an email address and logging in are not required.

Frankly, there's no way I would ever set up anonymous commenting on my blogs because I'm aware that:
the vast and overwhelming majority of all information on the internet is spam;
and that over 80% of the so-called comments submitted to free hosted wordpress.com blog every day are spam.

How can I eliminate the log in requirement?
Thanks
