My Comment Policy

I approve the overwhelming majority of comments, but it may take up to 24 hours to see a comment you make. If I didn’t let your comment through, that is because it looked like an advert/spam/astroturf, or something along those lines.  Those are pretty much my rules as such.  Either you turn up within 24 hours, or you weren’t worthy.  That simple.

Edited during holiday season, late 2007: Nothing’s ever simple enough. When I am away from the internets, typically for the usual American holidays (Thanksgiving, Xmas, July 4th, etc.), stuff won’t be approved until I get back home. So the original 24 hour thing holds so long as it’s not a holiday weekend or week, and there are not terribly many of those.

So. That’s my revised comment policy and I hope I can stick to it, or perhaps find some way to approve things that turn up over holidays. Time will tell.

Edited late February, 2008: as of now, all comments approved pretty much when I get to them, which could be as long as a week these days. if you post a comment, i will try to get it approved with a quickness, but i may not get to muh blog for a few days. every week is practically a holiday week. if i ever get to writing more entries and thus getting way more comments, i may just have someone else added as a comment-approver. but until that potentially happy day, any comments made to this blog will turn up when they turn up, provided they don’t suck as far as my view of ‘sucks’ goes. that is the best i can do currently…

Edited again December 2008: I now sometimes approve charming spam-poesy if there’s any that looks good.  So my comment-approval is now officially based on both whim and content.
