Just a note to Nukers – you never need to leave a comment to ask me to release your comment from moderation. I get all the comments emailed to me, so I get notified immediately when one goes to moderation. As soon as I see something in moderation, I check it out.
The only thing delaying the release of real comments is the frequency with which I check my email.
If I could monitor it constantly, I would, but… only human.
I asked Frank to train a monkey to release comments from moderation, but his maimouphobia just keeps getting in the way.
Yes, merely human.
I’d never want to be a moderate. I’m glad this system is in place, so as soon as someone begins to suffer from moderation Harvey will be alerted and can work to immediately get them help.
I hear Obama should be available (hopefully) in the very near future. Perhaps he could do it… although he’d find a way to mess that up too, I suppose.
“but … only human” Sounds like an excuse to me.
Everything in moderation, including being moderated!
We would never accuse Harvey of being immoderate. Frank, yes, Harvey no. The two sides of the coin are different, you see.
I’d forget about using a monkey and go with a honey badger.
Anyone trying to stop the release of comments from moderation would be eaten.
Hey they got a monkey to do my job. Oh wait, its me.
A word of caution, Harvey. If you keep jacking with FramkJ about monkeys, he will hire an Irishman.
Burt – what IS the word for “fear of Irishmen”?
“British”, maybe?
You *check* your email? Why? It’s easy (and free, or cheap) to get notifications sent to your phone on whatever schedule you prefer, even differing schedules for emails from different people.
Soothsayer – Hey, buddy, don’t try dragging ME kicking & screaming into the 21st century!
Anyway, even if I did do that, then there’d still be the problem of me sometimes not looking at my phone.
Yes, by all means give the job to an Irishman…who, spiting the rampant Celtiphobia, should then subcontract the work to a capybara…over-qualified for the task though that critter might be.
Celtiphobia?
So what’s fear of Scotsmen? Kiltiphobia?
@Burt: If you keep jacking with FramkJ about monkeys, he will hire an Irishman.
Or worse, a Norwegian.
What the hell kind of hotel is this?
We expect robotic perfection!!
Hmmm… I’m gonna go put Jimmy’s comment into moderation… 😛
You can’t moderate the Irish, Harvey. We’re immoderatable!
(Hold on, I’m not sure I just didn’t contradict myself….)
Nope, I didn’t. But the meaning is backwards – which is not good for me.
Just where is Space Monkey these days?
No more shall I be able to wave the banner of having been moderated by IMAO.
I thought “Your comment has been sent to moderation” was like “High Praise!”. You mean it’s a bad thing? Oops, sorry. No bacon for me.
