Site Rules
A. For general information on site rules, please see the paragraphs numbered:
(1) Use only one alias; and
(2) No personal attacks;
in this post, Our Isaac Brock Society – Taking Stock of Where We’re At.
B. My comment dosn’t appear.
(1) New commenters. Welcome! Your first comment will await moderation,and should appear on-line sometimes within minutes and usually within an hour or two. Once it is released from moderation, you future comments will go directly on-line.
(2) Ongoing commenters. If you get a new ip address, the software will think you’re a new commenter. So, the first comment you make from that address will be automatically routed to Moderation, but, unless you’ve gone suddenly beserk, it will be approved (with short delay, as above). Your future comments will go directly on-line. NOTE: Your ip address may change without you knowing it. Internet providers change one’s address periodically (for info on that, just google).
(3) All commenters. You can contact a moderator. See “Contact Us” at bottom of page.
Surely we should have a “Godwin” type law that claims “As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of discussing US tax non-compliance is guaranteed, the point at which the discussion or thread often ends by getting it moved to another thread”.
@ BB
I only found out about this site recently, but isn’t its main or sole reason for existence US double taxation? so not sure why it’s considered irrelevant when a side topic veers off toward the main theme of the site?
Also I do blog on other sites and I cannot really think of a single blog or board that doesn’t go off topic to some extent, but I don’t see moderators killing the thread or moving it somewhere else.
it’s your site and you can run it how you want, but it seems a bit strange especially when the site doesn’t seem active much.
@ Tom,
Because when someone is looking for information on a specific topic, it makes it difficult if there’s multiple topics intertwined on the same thread.
We also put a link on the original thread when we move comments, so people can follow and participate in the new discussion that arose from it.
Welcome to Brock, Tom.
