Comment Policy
July 23rd, 2003 by gregr
Well, I was hoping not to have to do this, but it appears it’s inevitable. Here’s the comment policy for my weblog:
I reserve the exclusive right to delete any comment left here. Reasons a comment might get deleted (this is not an exhaustive list):
- The comment contains flames or attacks on me or others, as determined solely by me.
- The comment is obviously off-topic.
- The comment contains offensive language.
- The comment promotes illegal activities such as copyright infringement, software piracy, cracking, etc. Note that discussion of these activities is fine; promotion is not.
I will not, however, edit content of any comment, other than to alter the markup in certain cases (for example, to fix a broken link, etc.).

This is not related to the “Comment Policy” post, but I didn’t know where else to put it so… for the links to web sites and rss feeds, could you possibly make these links open in new windows?
Thanks,

I could, but I hate to push that on people who don’t like it that way. Right now, you can shift+click to open in a new window, so you can do it either way…but if everything opened in a new window by default, it’d be difficult for people who wanted it in the same window. You know?

Makes sense… I just hate clicking a link and then closing the page without realizing I didn’t do a “shift-click”.
Another issue… the link to “newsgator – Feedster Search Summary” is broke (the XML works, but not the web page).

Don’t feel bad about the policy; someone needs to tell the bastards of the world that they are bastards, and that good conversation comes from being respectful to all. In fact, more than being a “sensorship” thing, it is an intelligence filter, only adding value.
