Comment moderation and other housekeeping Gordon Cheng

Sharp-eyed Sola Panel readers will have noticed that the evil spam monster has, just once or twice, crept through our defences and left us inadvertently advertising the latest—well, less sharp eyed readers don't need to know. We've also had a rash of posts (from just a couple of people) that we had to delete, according to our 'be godly' and 'stay on topic' guidelines.

So while we continue to iron out the small wrinkles in our fresh new blog, we are enabling comment moderation. That means we will be moderating all comments in line with our guidelines, and you may experience some delay in seeing what you or others have posted.

As we do this, we're trying to strike a balance between highlighting the actual content of the posts, yet also allowing open and lively discussion (including disagreement!), while at the same time establishing a tone for our interaction that will, we trust, be of the most benefit to participants and readers.

So at the moment our Sola Panel ‘L’ plates (‘L’ for ‘learner driver’, in case you don't have them in your part of the world) are still firmly in place. Please be patient with us as we explore our options in this department! If we make mistakes, the easiest way to let us know is via the comments on this blog. Only please remember to mark them ‘Not for publication’ if you don't want your views spread throughout the blogosphere!

Please keep reading and commenting, and we, for our part, will keep you updated on where we're going and what we're thinking.
