The reason you have arived here is probably due to the fact that the
owner of this web site has deemed some portion of a comment as
flamebait.
While I am not sure of many things, here are a few things I do
believe:
Overall, the comments feature of my weblog is something that I find
the most enjoyable and rewarding aspects of my site.
I welcome thoughtful and respectful expressions of alternate points
of view.
There are some topics that I am interested in that others seem to
find as irresistable temptations to bash one another.
Nobody has an inalienable right to place information on my website.
If you have something to say, I encourage you to get your own weblog.
Feel free to use trackback to draw attention to your comments.
Given the above, I would like to find a solution less drastic than
disabling comments, blocking of ip address, or wholesale removal of
comments. That being said, I do reserve the right to selectively employ one
or more of the above in situations I feel warrant it.
At the moment, the best solution I have come up with is to mark up
the portions I find objectionable with links to this page. No words
are addded, deleted, or rearranged in the process.
Suggestions are welcome.
No hitting
Status update: I've adjusted the html tags I use to annotate weblog comments. Instead of merely a <del> tag, I now use a hypertext link: one with a title of flamebait, and a link to a page where further information and discussion...

What would really make this interesting is if other readers could mark bits of text in a given comment as flamebait, not just Sam.
This is a great idea, and I'm implementing it on my own weblog. It has the added benefit that, if people just read your site for the entertaining flames, they're now much easier to find. Kind of like those trashy romance novels that put all the sex scenes in italics.
Help me find better choice, and I will gladly choose it. Until then, I plan to continue to respect the roadmaps. Both of them. Dave is providing feedback. Here's my responses: I have a policy. This weblog will follow this...

Sam Ruby has a policy for his blog's comment section. He edits comments he considers flames with strikethrough and coloring and makes them link to his policy page. Mark Pilgrim uses a similar policy at his weblog. Danny Ayers' policies sort of do...

The web today is a-flutter with calls for new “standards” to fight back against the increasing problem of hostility in the world of blogging. This comes on the back of a spate of unpleasant, unprovoked attacks on various bloggers...

Hmm. Somehow I’m disappointed that diveintomark.org/policy/comments/ is now a 404. I figured a web-aware type with such a nice useful URL would stick around.
Respect is something that we earn,not something which we can purchase. So the first and most essential activity is, never compel others to regard you. Juvenile individuals abuse their capacity to ‘purchase’ regard. Individuals may call them ‘sir/madam’ however they may not really regard those individuals. Regard can be earned just through great character and great deeds.
Positive site, where did u come up with the information on this posting? I have read a few of the articles on your website now, and I really like your style.
Consideration is something that we deserve, not something which we penitentiary gain. So the most significant and diverse significant tendency is, nevermore force others to respect you. Growing characters maltreat their expertise to purchase honor. People may request them any way they may not by any stretch of the fabrication respect those people. Compliance can be earned merely through exceptional character and incredible deeds.
