| Rantburg was conceived as a repository for news about the War on Terror, and I'd like to keep it that way. This is not an opinion journal, and despite the amount of smartassery in the commentary, it's not really a place to mouth off for the sake of seeing your own words on somebody else's site. There are lots of forums and chat rooms you can go to for that. Your opinion is welcome. But if you post something, tie it to a hard news article that's related to the site's subject matter. Pure opinion, be it "I think Iraq sucks" or "I think war sucks" doesn't go here. Get your own weblog. I'll dump your post, even if I agree with the subject matter. I'll just dump it a little faster if I don't.
Thanks for your support, The Management | |

| #8 We have a Sort Attention Span theater section. The article was on the evil of the Tyson's chicken factories. I know nothing about Tyson's chickens, but I know it was neither WoT, nor was it silly enough to go into SAST. I left the first paragraph and kept the comments. That's what I'll be doing with all but outright Islamotrolls from now on. I delete very few articles. This is the first in over a month. I'm too easy... |

| #3 second Frank's suggestion -- maybe a "penalty box" with just the names of the poster, and the number of deleted articles -- avoids the yabbos just putting the rancid content in the headline. |

| #2 suggestion Fred? - when you delete a post cuz it's too off-topic/opinion/crap whatever, could you leave the title? I never remember what was deleted, and therefore don't know if it was one of my stupid rants or comments that got it booted |

| #1 But Fred! Tyson Chicken does Suck! (just kidding) This is, unfortunately a needed announcement. Hopefully you will not have to go to a 'registered user' system. I've seen too may weblogs go to the 'First Post' and such. Lets keep things on-topic. I like this log and would hate it be buried in crap. Besides... everyone knows Foster Farms Chickens are the best. :) |
