Admin: Subscription, Access and Commenting Policies
[This is an admin post. Last revision: April 7, 2009.]
If you want to subscribe to me or give me access: Feel free! No need to ask.
If you want me to subscribe to you: Generally, I will subscribe to people who have subscribed to me, unless there is something I find particularly bothersome about their journal. "Particularly bothersome" means such things as: content full of -isms and generally hateful speech, writing so far from Standard English as to be nearily incomprehensible, explicit adult content not behind cuts, or multiple large images not behind cuts. I may remove a subscription if I find that the vast majority of posts in a particular journal make my brain hurt in a bad way.
If you want access to my locked posts, I expect one of the following to be the case:
- I know you from elsewhere.
- Someone I know VERY well (like, say, my spouse, or someone I've been in-person friends with for at least a year or online friends with for several years) recommends that I add you.
- We have directly interacted one-on-one or in a community setting and it has gone well.
- We've subscribed to each other's public posts, had some exchange of comments, and that has gone well.
My opt-in filters are opt-in to anyone who has access, except if a filter is noted as being 18+, I also need to know that you are at least 18.
Generally speaking, I will set public posts to screen anonymous comments. They will be unscreened if a) they are not inflammatory and b) they are signed with some form of alias.
I reserve the right to freeze threads or to delete comments, though generally I will only delete comments if they inappropriately reveal someone's personal information or if they are from a commenter that I have previously warned to stop making problematic comments.
"Problematic comments" are comments that are obvious trolling or flamebait or that derail the discussion topic.
A reminder to check your privilege is NEVER a problematic comment.
These policies are subject to revision as needed.
