I received this message "You must authenticate the user or provide author_name and author_email" when I replied to someones post. I tried searching for this term, but nothing came up and I don't see any forum help page. What caused this message (never got it before) and how do I comply with either of its instructions?

Thanks

  I was reading the article The Evolution of BitShares (Formally ProtoShares) and replied to a poster (@zaubergeld). When I hit submit, that message (You must authenticate the user or provide author_name and author_email) popped up next to a triangle with an exclamation mark in it.

  ahh,sounds like it might be a hiccup on Disqus's end (disqus is the third party comment system we use for articles). does it happen to you every time?

  That's crazy I've never never heard of that before, it seems rather strange.
