Re: BU @ UMass Amherst 2/11
Ah OK, good. Yeah, the comments after the article are pretty irrelevant to me, and I'm sure to anyone else who doesn't like that kind of mindless banter since you can easily avoid it. So yeah, I totally understand you not wanting to censor that.
Ah. I'm talking about the comments on articles. We do more censoring on the live blog for exactly the reason you just mentioned- it bogs things down too much. Not just for the readers, but also for us while we're trying to work. If there's a live blog commenter who is clearly contributing nothing but garbage, I'll just ban them. Then I don't have to worry about approving their comments any more and readers don't have to worry about navigating through the trash. We actually banned someone last night before the puck even dropped as a matter of fact.
