Our Week In The Web: October 23, 2015

Today in 'topics we've looked at before in the past,' we're talking about comments on our website. In case you've never looked at our WBUR Community Rules, they're both incredibly broad and rather specific. We here at On Point try to leave things on the broader side of the equation — we only delete and ban comments and commenters if they hit explicitly sexual, violent or threatening remarks. We allow our more frequent commenters to comment as much as they might want, even if at times it can seem a little overwhelming to new readers of our site. It's not a perfect system, to be sure — especially on the weekends, when commenters can overwhelm the page — but it's one we're sticking to. If you have questions, you're always welcome to let us know here in the comments below, or on Facebook, Tumblr and @OnPointRadio.
