Not a real person.

Howdy mods, just a quick note to mods to be careful (and think twice) about the 
comments you approve. One went up on the site recently was pretty suspect.

Telltale signs? Aside from the Funny Star Wars name and a openly critical comment,
the email address the commenter used was a big red flag. Remember, we want to do
everything in our power to foster _useful and constructive community discussions_
and some comments don’t exactly do that.

The following are the kinds of comments we do not want to approve. When in doubt
ask an experienced mod to make the judgement call.

 1. Comments that don’t further the discussion on the topic
 2. Comments critical of video/audio quality – They just don’t help
 3. Comments that are derogatory in nature, toward the speaker or the presentation –
    Differing viewpoints (when presented respectfully) are OK, be anyone being an obvious
    troll is not.
 4. Comments that use a spammy-sounding name, spammy (or fake) email address, or spammy
    website link should not be approved. Even if the comments appear to be legitimate,
    if any of the above are true, it’s spam.

When in doubt, trust your gut, if a comment looks fishy for any reason, well, it
probably is. 🙂
