Get Your Own Blogs
When this blog got started the aim was to have fun at the expense of politicians, cause mischief, entertain and amuse Guido primarily. The readership was in the hundreds, the regular comment makers were witty or contributed gossip.Now the daily readership is 10,000+ plus, and a good proportion of them seem to be total loons, it is getting tedious to have to delete dozens of comments a day. There also appears to be some kind of misunderstanding about the blog's purpose - it is not a public service.
So for guidance here is a reminder of the somewhat arbitrary comments deletion policy:
- If you want to libel someone - get your own blog.
- If you want to abuse Guido, get your own blog (unless you do it wittily).
- If you want to complain about Jews, blacks, lizards, little green men in your head etc. Get your own blog.
- If you want to complain that it is biased, get your own unbiased blog.
- If you want lengthy discussion about policy, bore on your own blog.
- If you get offended easily, don't complain, don't come back.

6 out of 6, must get my own fekking blog.
I did feel the discussions were becoming opaque and perhaps even, psychedelically generated.
Your google pagerank is now up to 6 - let's hope this one goes all the way to 11

I think you need a nice massage.
I've got a little green, jewish, black lizard man in my head but it definitely hasn't caused me any harm.
I salute all vioces in my head that tell me that Peter Hitchens must be axed up into little pieces and fed as cat meat.

This is all some sort of elaborate ruse by Gudio's spook paymasters. Don't listen to him people, he's a lizard himself, I know because I read it on a blog.
I think you need a nice massage.
I already got one, but people just took the piss out of me.
So THAT's what happened to all my posts.
Fair enough Guido.
This place has been getting spammed by New Labour trolls increasingly of late.
Something must be worrying them.
According to a Gartner poll cited by the Beeb, blogs will "level out" next year at 100K. So there should be plenty of scope for the green martian in the hairdo brigade to make their mark. A tiny, smudged one.
Fair point - but are you really complaining about the number of people dropping in when you send the bill for advertising to Marks & Spencer ?
And would M&S be happy if only your few hundred original readers were there to click on 'lingerie lass' ?
What is this Guido, trying to limit our freedom of speech? Must be a Zionist conspiracy.
Poor taste still applauded, one hopes.
I hear the Ipswich game is off on Saturday - some dyslexic lunatic has murdered all the substitutes.
Well at least we all now know what you look like, Guido!
Nice hat...
Well said Guido,
Keep the spamming NuLab morons out.
Any idea why the Diana story was released at the same time they announced they want to close 2000 post offices?
A good day to bury bad news?
We still love you Guido.
anon 1:23, actually the whole Ipswich ripper thing is Ali Campbell manufacturing a cover for the Diana story. Don't you read the Daily Express??
I'll public service you in a minute.
Oh dear I`ve been deleted a bit
( Shuffles feet in momnent of shame and self recognition)
...sorry
(tiny voice)
Eileen said -I think you need a nice massage
I`ll take that if your giving them away Eileen ? (I `m so stiff today , I couldn`t tell you ....)
Oh come on ...Eileen......
Guido may care to add to his 'unwanted' list those sorry souls who have been looking in the mirror for so long that they are unable to come up with a more imaginative epithet than 'cunt'.
A visit to (US) Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler would broaden their vocabularies.

I am a Darlek.....do I count as a little grren man...abet a free marketeer one....blup...xx
Guido becomes establishment.
Guido wants decent, middle class, witty radicals.
groan...moderation, fuck you will be making me strip down to see if I've got illegal substances and bad quotations up my jazzookii!
So you're not above criticism, just certain types of criticism.
Ooooooooooooooh.
Steve Hilton doesn't like the naughty trolls.
Put a bit of gold lame on that hat and it would some up the Diana-conspirazoids quite well.
Dear Mr Guido, Why do you post comments on other people's blogs that are of the type that you don't allow people to do on your's? I refer,of course, to your very silly comments on the Lenin's Tomb website.
Has something happened to Diana?!?
I see what you mean -I just enjoy it -thanks for making me laugh and bringing things to my attention that I might otherwise miss.
(my husband is heard to mutter -who is this Guido and Iain Blair she's on about)
I wish to complain about everything.
I do love that picture of you, Guido. Was it posed?
The headline says 'Get your own blogs' but it doesn't tell us when and where, or how much you are charging for them ?
Can you promise delivery before Christmas Day, given that it is less than two weeks away ?
Unfortunately any kind of web-based, comment-seeking enterprise will always attract the loony contingent.
I did start my own blog but I get nowhere near as many readers as you, so I'm allright.

:)
It's the same shit people who make the same crap, unfunny comments everyday. Just IP ban them and be done with it.
Oh good, an invitation from Guido to promote my own (non political and probably drivel) blog! Like wot Jonny B has just done! (Did you win the webbies, Jonny?)
sod off guido - you're not the BBC
When will Blair & Brown realise that they are hated by millions for the dredfull mess they have made of our country
Oh poor Guido.
This is the internet you're bound to get all kinds of nutters here and you're quite happy to re-direct these same nutters to Millibands blog.
If you enable comments then you have to be prepared to put the time in to moderate them.
Whinging is not good for your credibility.
P.S.
I do have my own blog but would never sign in here using my ID.
Nobody visits my blog. Not even to call me an arsehole.
Do all reptiles count?
I completely sympathise, but it was entirely predictable and you are far from the first it has happened to.
Popular sites with anonymous posters will also need heavy moderation.
The only alternative to running a popular blog without it consuming your whole waking hours is to have some kind of registration process.
Unfortunately, now 'they' have seen that they have got under your skin, the disruption will only get worse.
Crikey and I thought this blog was a public service blog, although the public service announcemnts on totty hae been pretty thin of late, come on Guido pull your stockings up!
"...it is not a public service."
On that note, can I thank Guido for fixing that bar across the screen (if he did it)?
Otherwise, what Grumpy said.
Or...dunno...you can't make two sets of comments linking off from posts can you? Or even several. Like, so it reads underneath:
Permalink 1:45 PM 30 Funny Comments 12 Unfunny Comments 0 Policy Discussion Comments 1 Complaints About Lizards Comments
etc.
(and apologies for being anonymous, I actually made a name a while ago, but I can't log in, probably because I'm as competent with computery stuff as an NHS IT technician).
Note to self: Abusing Catesby is OK.
Guido if this post was partly prompted to my reference to the FPC, the article was published in the New Statesman a couple of years ago. If you like I can forward you a copy. It's completely kosher. Also the FPC didn't challenge the New Statesmans account of thier activities.
I take your point about raving about Jews, blacks,etc. But what about the freemasons? As a Scottish papist I would like to know.
Good news! (see above) be bopper and gary elsby stoke have dropped by to call me an arsehole. Thanks guys. All comments appreciated.
Well I think its disgraceful that people make irrlevant comments here - its worse than the weather in Huddersfield!
Yes, I agree. The weather in Huddersfield is so bad, it deserves its own blog. Thanks for dropping by, mutleythedog.
But what about those damned squirrels? What happened to them?
Sorry but why don't you just tell them to go to the comment is free pages, the daily mail comment bits, or if you're after a more international flavour the BBC website 'your views' section?
Everyone knows this is the home for the green ink brigade on the web.
So where's David Icke going to post now ? I think we should be told.
Guido - may I call you that? - just want to say: great site.
I shall be passing it on to the more discerning of my friends. Am sure they'll both enjoy it.
