The Dougout: Comments Policy

Comments Policy

In the last few days I have had to delete several comments. I have never stated a comments policy for The Dougout. Perhaps, I should. Since I can't say it any better than the Ahistoricality Guy, I won't bother to try:

It's my blog.

I reserve the right to delete comments for other reasons, at any time, and to do so without explanation. I may delete comments by people who I don't like; I may delete comments with language I don't like; I may delete comments with arguments I find offensive, troubling, or simply too wrong to bother with; I may delete comments that are poorly written; I may delete comments that are unkind or unnecessarily vulgar or otherwise offensive; I may delete comments which attack myself, my friends, relations, colleagues, heroes or admirers without extremely good grounds.

I'll just add that on a visceral level all comments that I find annoying or irritating will be deleted.

It's my blog.
