A Rules Reminder.

Three times in the past 2 weeks I've offered reminders in the comments about not posting under "non-names." Yesterday I did delete 2 comments posted in that manner.

The rule states: "Do not post anonymously or with 'non-names' like Nobody, No One, Anonymous Prof, etc."

The rest of the arcane, arbitrary, subjective, pitiless, capricious, and draconian rules can be seen here.

  5. I want to report a violation of the first listed rule of CM.

  6. To posters:

    Think of the word "Rules" as a synonym for "Syllabus."

    Read it!

  7. They can have an old pejoritave nickname I would give people: "Fartos."

    So we can have Mr. Fartos, Ms. Fartos, Mrs. Fartos, Jimmy Fartos the Whole-Wheat Wonderboy, Sir Fartos, Comrade Fartos, Sayid Fartos, Se~nor Fartos, Senora Fartos, Fartos the Magnificent, Josif Vissaronovitch Fartos and on you go.

  8. Any chance that some of these instances may be technical glitches? I remember somebody within the last week or two claimed a comment posted as "unknown" (or some such non-name), saying (s)he had posted as usual, and that's how it came up. I ask because I've found my comments double-posted a few times recently (a problem I'd never encountered before, but I believe others have). Maybe blogger is getting buggy again?
