Danny's Corner: Commenting Policy

Commenting Policy

Well after a bit over a year of blogging I suppose its time I made up a comment policy. Nothing really serious and big but I'd rather start laying the law down now before things get out of hand later.

1. Please use a nickname - The comments aren't exactly coming in hand over fist but I'd like to not end up with myself and other posters confused by a bunch of "Guest" (aka Anonymous Cowards) nicknames posting here. So if you don't mind when commenting please add a nickname.

2. I understand that it can be easy to get heated up while talking things out especially when dealing with those you may not agree with but it is important to maintain a civil atmosphere.

3. Primer on Quoting. Take a look at this to get an idea of how to quote someone when commenting.

That is all for now but keep and eye on this as I'm sure I will be editing it as time passes.

Dude, it's not as if the use of pseudonyms is particularly courageous. I don't think we should depricate people who remain nameless. One could also see somewhat of a humility in it, in that they aren't trying to build a reputation for themselves, and letting the post speak for itself.

Courage has nothing to do with it. This guideline is based on having seen threads on other sites where there were multiple "Anonymous" folks making comments and it got real confusing as to which "Anonymous" you were trying to talk to.

It's only to eliminate confusion when quoting, responding to, etc...
