Comments & Moderation Policy

BY R ICH AR D CAR R IER / ON SEPTEMB ER 3, 2012 / L E AV E A C O M M E N T

Currently only Patreon and recurring PayPal patrons, and select vetted specialists, can post on my blog without their
comments waiting in the moderation queue (all such patrons, please email me to find out how to secure this privilege if it
isn’t already operating). All other comments go into moderation and must be approved before appearing.

Please note that I am quite busy and consequently only check the moderation queue every few days, sometimes longer
(particularly if the comment load is high, taking much longer to sort through). Consequently comments in moderation may
take a long time even for me to see them. Please have patience.

All comments in a moderation queue will eventually be approved and thus published that (a) are relevant to the article being
commented on, (b) are reasonably civil, and (c) don’t abuse the privilege of being published here at all (e.g. no trafficking in
harassment, slander, or abject racism and the like). Likewise, if a specific article has its own particular comments policy
stated, any comments violating that will not be published there. Some repeat offenders who were warned have also been
permanently banned and their comments will never be published. Heed warnings.

All civil and relevant comments submitted by any actual persons whose work, claims, or arguments are critiqued in the
article they are commenting on will also be published (once I’m able to read and clear them, as per usual). Please so-
identify yourself to claim that privilege. But be warned: pretending to be someone you are not will result in a permanent ban.

This page is continually updated to state present policy.
