THE RULES OF ENGAGEMENT
Comments including or containing reference to the following elements will not be posted:
RACISM
SEXISM
HOMOPHOBIA
Neither will I allow:
SWEAR WORDS
COMMENTS ON PEOPLE IN MY FAMILY OR PEOPLES FAMILIES WHO I HAVE POSTED ON (I AM THE ONLY PARTY WHO POSTS, SO WHY ATTACK THEM?)
UNFOUNDED ALLEGATIONS, ISSUES OF LITIGATION, SLANDER OR COMMENTS ON PEOPLES SEXUALITY.
I will allow;
CRITICISM OF ME, AS LONG AS THE ABOVE IS APPLIED
CRITICISM OF OTHERS, AS LONG AS THE ABOVE IS APPLIED
After all these issues, just about anything goes. If you have a good argument, I will reply to your comment. If I ignore it, assume you don’t!
I won’t engage in protracted arguments on other people’s sites. If you feel the need to comment in depth on their posts about me or my comments, I will reply on my site. Why should they be the cuckoo in the nest! Correspondingly, if you feel the need to comment in depth on my site, I will reply via a post, not a comment.
Whilst I operate a comment moderation policy, it has always been to incorporate the above restrictions. To date, I have stopped 9 comments on this site.
