I am taking a more front & center role on this weblog proceeding forward. Moderate/inspection of comments will become stricter. I suspect some of you will be banned because you post worthless comments. Also, I am seriously thinking about installing a plugin that caps word-length on comments.
Since this weblog gets about 10 times more traffic than it did a few years ago, it seems the right time to tighten the screws a bit.

I think word count plugin is a good idea.

why is that we have a funny turanian supremacist, but all the internet hind00z are so humorless?
are jokes against the dharma?
@Razib
Have you considered the possibility that the Turanian supremacist may be an internet hind00?
#mindBlown
Internet hindu very serious. Internet hindu no like joking around.
Also, is there a minimum IQ bar to participate here? Remember, I have great visuo-spacial IQ. (I can rotate 3-D objects in my head. I can also read this blog upside down.)
No there is just a “don’t make stupid unverifiable/contradictory to well established evidence statements bar” along with a “avoids logical fallacies bar”
IQ bar depends on wut u talking about. generally, am uncomfortable talking about intellectual stuff with sub-120 ppl tbh.
What’s happening guys? Where are you for a whole day? You left me alone to mind and entertain new kid in town, G-boy? If muslims are praying where are hindus, budists, catholics, atheists and like?
