Nothing to be proud of (mind you, for the 'reasons', mostly not given, I am not so sure), but I get 'moderated' every so often.Usually I take it with poor grace and move on.
However, I seem to have hit on a new phenomenon: 'Comment Erased'. As in didn't, doesn't and won't, at least as far as the publication goes, exist at all... ever.
It's bit like those photos of the Politburo on May Day, with some dude Tippexed out.
Look at the time and date above: Oct 24 08, 11.39am.
Now have a gander at the thread I posted on: Tories talking Britain down
Scroll down to: ABasu - Oct 24 08, 11:35am, and then to the next, EuropeanOnion

What seems to be missing? Now I know I was 'edge of topic', but the point was/is valid, and applied to this author.
Not exactly Comment Is Free, eh?
A harbinger of things to come, I wonder?

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
