For Bettermost Mods and Administration - AV Club Article on Commentary Policy

(1/2) > >>

smellykellyjay:
I came across what I consider to be a good article from the AV Club on their policies regarding commentary on their site.  I like what they have to say and thought y'all might find something of value from it. 

Here's the original article with all the site's bells and whistles: 
http://www.avclub.com/content/blog/why_we_delete_comments_and_how_you?utm_source=avclub_rss_daily

Here's the print version of it minus the layout (and paragraph breaks):

Fran:
Thanks, Kelly.

Kelda:
Thanks!

Kelly, I agree, that is really well-written, and a nice tone.  Are there parts you particularly would like us to adopt?

Fran, thanks for pointing it out to me.

No, nothing in particular comes to mind.  I don’t have any issues with the present policies, administration, or moderation of this board.  I posted the link simply as something of possible interest.  I thought the article did a good job of addressing the reality of maintaining a public site and that it covered all the bases. 

Perhaps I should have directed it toward the Bettermost populace, but I didn't feel that was my place.  I directed it the way I did with the idea that it may aid y’all with any sticky matters that might occur in the future. 

I appreciate the moderators we have and the work they do.  I’m sure there are many rewards in doing it, just as I’m sure it ain’t always fun and easy.
