Quick bit of business. As predicted, the comments have continued their tedious and inexorable slide into Wackbag whining territory and show zero indication of improving.
So here comes the new rules:
There are broadly three classes of comment, sorted by volume,
-
People complaining about who on the show they "hate". Standing on a box to yell at us about how much the show has upset them. As if anyone gives a fuck. This is of course entirely pointless, and annoying, and is not required.
-
People saying thanks, this is nice, but entirely unnecessary. So while not annoying, they are also not required.
-
The third type is people pointing out any site issues, link problems, suggesting shows to be grabbed, linking to items of general O&A interest, other resources, podcasts, or making interesting points in an entertaining or an informative manner.
Comment moderation is being switched on soon, and only comments of this third type will make it past moderation.
Use the comments to tell me if I am wrong, or for a fuller discussion of the problem. However the status quo is likely not an option.
