In the pantheon of Small Steps for Mankind, this is an infinitesimally small one…
But somehow, some way, something very wicked – not to mention strange – came KC Confidential‘s way recently. Kinda like that mysterious flu that has people chunking in public while waiting to return their Christmas gifts at Oak Park Mall’s H&M store.
After adding two new words to KCC’s moderated comments section list – joining such stalwarts as the F Word, N Word and P Word – suddenly each and every comment submitted to the site went straight to moderation. Meaning, yours truly had to go online, log in and approve them individually.
Not that I minded doing it, but I do have a life, and readers shouldn’t have to wait to express their angst or admiration or to add some helpful words of wisdom.
Way too tedious.
And while I didn’t make it my sole mission in life to cure the problem, I did take several runs at solving the situation, even bringing in a heavy hitter webmaster to look it over.
“I am stumped,” he reported back. “Funky.”
Left to my own means and devices I did some more research, tried a few more things, then tossed a couple of hail Mary passes at it and, voila!
Mission accomplished, I think.
Try it.
Oh and, welcome back! Thanks for your patience.

Moderate for accuracy and you’ll never let k or glaze on here again…

Yep, moderating for accuracy and moderating for civility are two vastly different efforts.
Testes….1….2…..3?
Fuck.
Heh, heh…
Funny Guy…
Testing the moderation filler, eh?
now that was funny !
Hearne, you will delete anything that’s critical of you because you are a coward. You constantly delete comments in much he same way you always talk trash about people behind their back. I guess you were just noticing that everyone has given up on your blog. I don’t know how you continue to rip off your advertisters but I think it’s probably more charity than anything else, you go on about the value of other blogs without realizing that there is little value in your own vanity project.
Screw the comments bring back the sexy chic pics.
tl;dr
It works for me.
