Forum and comments are different. We’ll write that into our policy too. Thought it was obvious, but maybe not. As already stated in our policy, however, we reserve the right to delete or edit any comment or post at any time for any reason, though we do that quite infrequently. And on the other side, everyone who visits this site reserves the right to decide our policy doesn’t work for them and they don’t want to visit this site any more. We know we run that risk, we would regret it, but we would certainly understand it. We have a pretty open policy; there continue to be news sites that don’t allow comments on most stories at all (Seattle Times, a case in point) and don’t have forums, while other sites tread quite heavily in moderating/editing/deleting comments. 99.9999% of what is posted to this site goes through as is. Also, I am moving this post to open discussion, as it is not a “reader recommendation” post, which is what this section of the forum is for.
