Lucky,

This question is completely unrelated to travel, points or credit cards.

How do you handle the censorship of comments on your blog? While I may not agree with all of your product reviews, I do recognize and respect the open dialog you maintain with your readers.

There is a BoardingArea blogger that routinely censors entire comments, no matter how amiable the nature of the remark. If you simply don’t agree with, nor support their hypothesis, your comment is either heavily modified or redacted altogether. They have gone so far as to prevent commments by certain IP addresses when highly educated, informed remarks have been presented by colleagues of mine. This takes away from the open, collaborative nature of an open forum.

Do you routinely find yourself having to censor comments? I surmise that you only redact personal attacks, which I find completely understandable. Any differentiation in opinion is fair game.

Thanks Gaurav. Just what I was looking for.

I also just noticed my embarrassing typo in the title…
