Bletch is a simple text-only forum for discussions.

Login only works with a Twitter/X account, which allows the reputation to carry over and should lead to less spam and better behavior.

You can mention others with @username and they will be notified.

When creating a post, you have the choice: allow open comments or limit replies only to people you already follow on Twitter, with all other comments requiring your approval (Comment Requests on your profile).

The character limit for titles is 80 and 10,000 for comments/text.

You can manage the discussion by hiding any comment under your posts. Hidden comments are accessible to anyone through the "Show hidden comments" button.

Discuss whatever you like, but be civil – or at least funny. Moderators will timeout and ban users if necessary.

Bletch is currently in beta. Feedback is welcome via Twitter DM @SvenSchnieders or Email.
