Blog Rules

Here are some rules that is good to follow when commenting on this blog.

- This is a international blog. Not everyone has perfect understanding on English. Please respect that difference. It is also important fact that we do not all speak the same English. So different words might have different meaning to people.
- Be as polite that you can be.
- Be as on topic as you can be. Some off-topic chat is in good order, for as long it does not damage the whole comments reading for other. If that happens. I am going to delete the offending comments without warning.
- No flame wars. Comments that are flame wars get edited or just deleted plain simply without any warning at all.
- If you have question about this blog. You can ask them by sending me a email or by leaving a comment.

There are no other rules then this at present time. If people behave nicely to each other on this blog. Everything should work without any problems (as I like it).

This rules might get updated when needed. I am going to do my best to let people know when I update this page.

    You delete comments that are meant for your own good. You people are lulled into a false sense of security by the opiates the global media has pumped into your damaged brains. I don’t insult individuals, or start Flame Wars, I’m far too Big for that, however, you are too immature to take criticism.

    I don’t live in a Land with a Thousand Volcanoes. I am not dumb enough! And, I certainly would not go FLAMING OFF BECAUSE THE BBC HAS A DIFFERENT OPINION. WHO ARE YOU ANYWAY, AN IMMATURE, AMATEUR …. BRHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!! THE REAL SCIENTISTS KNOW BETTER.

    All of you idiots putting your lives (and your greedy Commerce) ABOVE nature are going to get it someday. You never turn your back on the Sea, comrade.

    Deleting my posts only shows me that I got you.

    • @ivan, No. I did not delete your comment. It got stuck in a moderation queue and I know the blog system told you about it. As it says always “your comment is waiting moderation”.

      In general I do not delete comments, unless they are spam or trying to start a flame war. But it is the idiot branch of the internet that tries to start a flame war and I have every right to stop that from happening on my blog.

      BBC News was doing a media hype. It was nothing else.

      You not waiting until your comments cleared the moderation queue mans that you do not understand any of the features in volcanoes or earthquakes. I doubt that you understand how the internet and moderation queue work in general.

    vi sono molti vulcani che eruttano tanti terremoti nel mondo nella storia tutto cio’ puo’ essere la norma vi e’ ora il motivo reale che gli ultimi avenimenti escano da tale norma e siano sintomi per un reale timore planetario?

    Accepted and understood. You are welcome to delete comments from me if you want to. I feel like a bit of a gatecrasher on here though (its just me though!). Jon you are doing great…. i love to read these blogs. It must be upsetting for you to put this much effort in and get people like you know who commenting on here. They shouldnt jeopardize this blog for other people.
