Announcement regarding Comments

As the blog's administrator I have adjusted the specs so that every comment that is sent must pass thru a filter before it is posted. It is reasonable. This will account for the delay from the time you send to the time of posting.
An acceptable Comment will pass through this filter:
Is the writing understandable?
Does it genuinely engage the blog post or a previous comment?
Is it a sincere statement, a valid question, a justifiable comment regardless of position?
Does it avoid profanity, name calling, character attack, slander, threats?

To date only one comment has been deleted before posting, and that one because, no matter how strongly one feels, calling child protection or MCFD mobsters or organized crime won't fly here.

  1. Thank you! I appreciate all that you are doing here. For us that were directly involved it has been very frustrating not to have a voice. Even though we may disagree I do like to hear what others are discussing. This is a very challenging case and I think we all have one thing in common, to have a happy ending to this very sad story.

I encourage your comments using this filter.
1. Write politely with a sincere statement, valid question, justifiable comment.
2. Engage with the blog post or a previous comment whether you agree or disagree.
3. Avoid hate, profanity, name calling, character attack, slander and threats, particularly when using specific names.
4. Do not advertise
