Threadjackers Will Be Persecuted (Maybe Even Prosecuted)

[Rich Toscano]

This is the new, refined rule on political threadjacking, more or less:

Do not try to turn any discussion, even if already political in nature, into a left-vs-right slapfest. And do not try to turn a discussion, even if already political in nature, into a debate about a contentious and politicized issue that is only peripherally related to the original discussion (especially if the debate is polarized along left-vs-right lines).

Come to think of it, don’t even bother starting such a discussion.

Political threadjacks will be deleted and repeated offenders banned.

(And remember, when I delete a comment, the system automatically deletes all replies to that comment — so choose carefully which comment you click “reply” on).

Thanks, Rich. I know it sometimes is difficult, but I’m sure there are political blogs out there where people can get into it all they want. It is unnecessary to do it here. Can’t we just all get along 😉

I understand a reasonable desire to have a blog’s content/character be a certain way but I think sdddude has it out for brian. He could so easily ignore him or some of his content, like many of us do to each other. sdddude is being vindictive. His getting over it is just a much, or more, in order as policing posters is at this time and in my humble opinion. Looking at the content of the recent threads makes sdddudes desire to “nuke” brian questionable at best. That includes observation of comments sdddude has made.

Russell, this isn’t coming from sdduuude. His post may have prompted me to finally do something about this issue, but I’ve noticed and been troubled by it for a long time. And this rule doesn’t just apply to Brian, it applies to everyone.
