i tested it with grape-plural, and it still says “awaiting moderation.” so if you don’t see my testing comment, i guess it only minds two or more. if you have one grape, you’re in.

Absolutely right, for example, bigotry, genocide, child molestation, and talking on the phone in the cinema.

By: lexan D

lexan D — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 21:08:21 +0000

No, that is not a good way to phrase it, poor choice.
Perhaps better would be to say that there are some things that are ok IF done with moderation.
Some things are never ok and should not be done at all.

Anything??

By: lexan D

I’ve heard that it is ok to do anything as long as it’s in moderation.

My dog would love to visit that factory – blue bouncy ball is her favourite toy at the moment. I have to put it in her bowl when she eats, because she will not let it out of her sight.

The UEFA Super Cup is an annual association football competition contested between the winners of the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League which was established in 1972. The competition was previously contested between the winners of the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup until 1999 when the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup was discontinued by UEFA. The last Super Cup in this format was the 1999 UEFA Super Cup between Lazio and Manchester United which Lazio won 1–0. The competition was originally played over two-legs, one at each participating club’s stadium. Since the 1998 competition, the final has been a single match, played at a neutral venue, Stade Louis II in Monaco.[1]

Milan hold the record for the most victories, winning the competition five times since its inception. They are also the only team to have retained the UEFA Super Cup, doing so in 1990, after winning the previous competition in 1989.[1] Barcelona hold the distinction of being runners-up the most times, losing the competition four times. Teams from Italy have won the competition the most, with teams from the country winning the competition nine times. The current champions are Barcelona who beat Shakhtar Donetsk 1–0 to win the 2009 UEFA Super Cup.[2]

The 1972 final between Dutch team Ajax and Scotland’s Rangers is considered unofficial by UEFA,[3] as Rangers were banned from European competition due to the behaviour of their fans during the 1972 UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup Final. As a result UEFA refused to endorse the competition until the following season.[4]

Perhaps it’s been outsourced to some zealous contractor eager to prove they are good little mods.
Or there is a giggling graduate student working on the principles of random reinforcement.

I’m beginning to think there’s an intermittent bug in the site, or something which has nothing to do with moderation . One of my comments instantly disappeared yesterday, and I still can’t see why it would have been politically sensitive, or even why the ‘bot would care.
