However, the depths of the internet sometimes drudge up vile characters that make Blag Hag less enjoyable to me and my readers. In order to keep the comments a place where all people feel comfortable, I reserve the right to moderate comments, including (but not limited to) those that are:
- Spam
- Hateful, abusive, or threatening
- Trolling or thread derailing
- Evangelizing or godbotting
- Mindbogglingly stupid
Repeat offenders who have failed to demonstrate their ability to comment civilly will be banned.
