I don’t like doing it, but I’ve moderated several people over the last two days. I’m trying to stay away from starting a registration process – mostly because a few years back when I did have an open registration, a troll broke in and took over the blog. I was on vacation at the time, but I restored everything and booted the clown out – but that’s why there’s no link to register. <\/p>\n
Anyway, if this was my coffee shop or my shoe store, I wouldn’t allow horseplay, so I’m taking these measures to restore a semblance of order here. I’m pretty sure that some of yesterday’s trolls weren’t who they pretended to be – they’ve been here before under different names. <\/p>\n
So, if you comment, and find yourself moderated (Harry, Eagle Keeper, Cyber Bully, ObamaGirl, specifically) I’ll let your comments through if you’re actually having a discussion and not namecalling and being a general jerk. <\/p>\n
Some of you, not listed, might find yourself moderated because my spam filter is working overtime – that would be accidental. If you find your comment not posted email me and I’ll dig it out of the filter.<\/p>\n
But, I’m just trying to keep the discussions on track and give the impression that we’re all grown ups here. Take your flame wars to email.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
