The Olympian's new moderation
I have to say that the on-line crew at the Olympian are taking their community publishing guidelines much more seriously. Whereas before the sock puppet show ran wild ganging up on opinions they disagreed with and got then struck it appears now that the Olympian on-line crew is exercising some editorial discretion in determining what stays and what goes. Although not perfect, nothing man creates is, it is a great improvement that has done much to promote discussion over vindictive.
Well...I'm still confused as to what it policy and what isn't, but it's not a fargin' free for all anymore.
