A timely retro-respective moderation may be worth consideration. I appreciate that this may not be possible on 24/7 basis and an automated moderation robot may not be practical on a free google service, but a custom made website may also be worth consideration. As the format of your website is of the standard variety and you already own your own domain name, it may not be too difficult to find a moderately priced content management system with built-in discussion group module to meet the requirement. Of course, this all depends on how much time you can afford in managing your website.
Nader,
Thanks for the adoption of new "Comment Policy"! This is not a moment too soon as the contents of some comments have been becoming too wild and not to the point. The 6-hour gestation period sounds reasonable, considering the fact that comments are often posted from various time-zones and so they cannot humanly be reviewed by a live moderator immediately and posted online. The use of a "content management system" suggested by "reader" (12:14PM), while used by some blogs, can never replace an "independent" human moderator. Keep of the good work ! Azar...
I have stopped reading the comments, only came in here to mention this because of the nature of the article.
The tendency of one or two people who imply to be a whole bunch and make identical anti Iranian and anti religous and anti cultural sentiments is simply too childish and too unforgivable.
Mr Uskowi
Yes it's very worrying when you have a minority of childish regime supporters coming on this blog and babbling their nonsense which we know as not true.
Regards.
after reading larger parts of Mr. Iddon's editorial there is my impression that Iran should not depend on policies and cultures of some outside "emporiums" because they use to dissappear sooner or later. Regardless of religious believes of Iranian shia clergy, many of them excel aninteligence of "clowns" competing for a leadership of those emporiums.
