For too long, in the spirit of free expression, Spencerblog has permitted some of the most juvenile, insulting and asinine comments to be published on this blog.
No longer.
Frequent posters will notice that many recent comments have already been removed. More to go.
From now on, all comments will now be monitored for civility and being on topic.
The Management.
Come on Gil! You don't have the time to be a full time babysitter! You threw this threat out there before, it lasted a week and things went back to it's regular, insult-laden standards. Yes, I agree with the notion and the need to clean things up, but I don't see this lasting!
ReplyDeleteDoes comment moderation now give us posters "batting averages"? I'd love to keep track of who's posts are deleted and etc.
It's bettin' time, folks! Here's your Spencerblog odds:
ReplyDelete13-1: bob will shed a tear as future potential archive gems of randal, scott, steve and jonas are eliminated
10-1: franny ward's beer cooler is found
8-1: steve mcdonald breaks out of his shell and tests spencerblog to the limits of good taste through posts and questionable blogger id pictures
7-1: carter scott shields is able to post without invoking a gay reference
6-1: david diano takes the time to check the wikipedia article before cutting and pasting into his posts - some articles are laden with vulgarity due to pranksters
5-1: spencerblog deletes any jonas posts that brag about his qualifications and accomplishments. spencerblog community celebrates
3-2: posts by randal become a thing of the past on spencerblog due to their inability to pass through comment moderation without detection of offensive material
1-2: realizing the actual work involved in keeping, maintaining and censoring a blog, gil spencer, longing for the days of op-eds 3-4 days a week and nothing further, deletes spencerblog, much to the disapproval of the herron's nest
Too much oversight and control.
ReplyDeleteYou’re not a hands-on enough of an Admin to approve postings quickly to keep the place flowing, G. Can we expect hours and days to pass between composition, approval and posting, as you disappear sometimes days at a time?
You're gonna kill your blog.
I often suspected this was just what Dishonest Dave Diano had in mind by always posting his abrasive and offensive crap here. Looks like he won.
It was fun while it lasted.

ReplyDeleteSteve,
ReplyDeleteSpencerblog will not be a full-time babysitter. It will be a part-time babysitter.
Posters will have to wait, sometimes hours, maybe even days, to see the fruits of their labor in print.
Sorry. That's the way it's going to be for now.
diano, I disagree withwhatever you're posting as I haven't read whatever it is yet.

I've opened up my useless blog to those who want to speak openly. It's in my ID, leave your PC ambitions at the door.
