House rules

Alex Trickett | 11:54 UK time, Monday, 5 May 2008

All of our bloggers are keen to hear your views, so comments will be moderated 24 hours per day seven days per week (0900-1900 for the Sport Editor's blog).

Please keep your comments clean. If they fail our house rules (listed below), they will be removed.

And do try to keep your comments relevant and below 200 words. We may fail posts that are too long and also reject off-topic comments because we want to keep this blog focused. Readers looking for broader discussions on sport should visit our .

If you see a post that is inappropriate, alert us by using the "complain about this comment" link and we will act accordingly.

Please note that this button should not be used to simply disagree with a commenter. It is there to alert the moderators to a post you feel breaks the house rules in some way.

You should also be aware of our privacy policy.

And ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Sport Interactive's .

For formal complaints you should go to the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳'s official complaints website.

Blog basics

For the uninitiated, blogs (or weblogs) work like this:

The most recent posts appear at the top of the page. And at the bottom of every entry:

• "Permalink" allows you to bookmark a particular post, or to send it by e-mail to a friend

• "Comments" invite you to offer your reaction to that entry, or read those of others

Comments are what set a blog apart from a traditional column because they create an immediate dialogue between the audience and author.

• "Bookmark with.." allows you to submit a post to your favourite community news-aggregation site, such as , which ranks stories and links via a user-based ranking system.

• On the right-hand side of the blog are links to other related blogs. If you wish to be considered for inclusion, please including a link.

• You can also use an RSS feed of this blog. Here's the .

House Rules

• Are considered likely to provoke, attack or offend others

• Contain swear words or other language likely to offend

• Break the law or condone or encourage unlawful activity. This includes breach of copyright, defamation and contempt of court.

• Are written in anything other than English - Welsh and Gaelic may be used where marked

• Contain links to other websites which break our Editorial Guidelines

• Describe or encourage activities which could endanger the safety or well-being of others

We may also close comments on a post if we think the discussion has become irrelevant or out of date.

We want to keep our blog as focused as possible. For this reason, messages not relevant to the post may be rejected.

Repeatedly posting personal or offensive comments about individual members of the public or people who work for the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ may be considered harassment. We reserve the right to remove such messages and take action against those responsible.
