Discussion Policies

Unfortunately I have had to change the discussion policy because of a few bad apples. I want to keep the discussion open but because of the personal and/or threatening nature of several comments, I have instituted a level of security. All comments must now be approved before they will appear on the site, no exceptions.

If you want to see your comment on Not so Subtle, please follow these rules:

1. No personal attacks on the author or other visitors. Keep your criticism political in nature. That means no childish insults.

2. No spam. Do not promote your own blog, post, product, or service. All spam will be deleted, no exceptions.

3. There will be a 3 strike rule regarding personal attacks. I will simply delete your comments the first two times- after the third time you will see all future comments, regardless of content, not showing up on the site. For spam there is only 1 strike.

    I would like to know why my comment of November 6th was removed. I simply stated the truth. From reading other comments on this blog, that seemed to be what people were interested in. If you are “not so subtle” and preach radical moderate politics, than why am I not allowed to say what I need to say?

    I posted the comment yesterday on “Revelations Obama, and Apocalyptaphobia” It was there and then it disappeared. Noone told me what was wrong with it. Now comments are simply closed? Are we interested in truth or not?

    Thank you,

    Lyn- I had decided to shut down the comment thread on that post before you made your comment. I have no problem with what you said but I was concerned with the overall direction of the discussion. I will be revisiting the topic very soon so feel free to join in again.

    Hey I can’t find any information about you (the blog owner) on this blog. Am I missing it? If you don’t have it, you might want to consider putting it somewhere.

    Thanks,
    M

    Memo- I was under the impression that I had a link at the top to an about the author page- I was wrong. You can find more info there. Thanks for pointing it out.
